At Patricia S. Bellac Law Firm, LLC, we are dedicated to helping both employees and employers navigate complex workplace disputes and legal challenges. PSB Law negotiated a settlement which included full reimbursement for all capital investments and expenses (even though it was a start-up company), severance pay, and a solid percentage of future profits.
Successfully Negotiating Founder Settlement
When a founder of an investment firm found herself in a disagreement with her fellow founders over the direction of the company, Attorney Patricia Bellac stepped in to negotiate a fair resolution. The outcome included a departure package that reimbursed her client for personal investments in the firm, along with additional compensation and future profit sharing. This resolution not only protected her client’s financial interests but also secured long-term benefits.
Securing Benefits for a Healthcare Professional
We successfully obtained unemployment benefits for a nurse who was accused of workplace mistakes by a former employer. These benefits provided a crucial safety net, allowing the client to avoid eviction and prevent the repossession of her car. This case underscores the importance of protecting workers’ rights in challenging times.
Defending a Worker Against Restrictive Covenants
In another case, we defended a construction worker against a non-compete lawsuit filed by a former employer. Attorney Bellac secured a ruling that dismissed several claims, and the employer ultimately dismissed the rest of the case. This result allowed the client to move forward with his career without the burden of unfair restrictions.
Supporting Employers with Compliance and Policies
Our work extends beyond litigation. We also help businesses build strong, compliant workplaces. Recently, we supported an employer by reviewing and revising payment policies to ensure compliance with both federal and state laws. We also created an updated employee handbook, providing the company with a solid foundation for future growth and employee relations.
At Patricia S. Bellac Law Firm, LLC, we are proud of the results we achieve for our clients, whether that means protecting workers’ rights, negotiating fair settlements, or guiding employers toward compliance. If you need support with an employment law matter, our team is here to help.
