Expert Guidance Through a Complex Employee Termination

Our company faced a difficult situation with a senior employee whose termination carried significant legal risk. We engaged Emily Petroski at Jackson Lewis, and her counsel was invaluable. Her deep knowledge of Michigan employment law and her specific focus on management-side litigation were immediately apparent. She meticulously guided us through the entire process, ensuring every step was documented and defensible. Emily’s recognition in Best Lawyers for Employment Law - Management was well-earned; her strategic thinking turned a potential lawsuit into a clean, amicable separation. She is exceptionally responsive, explains complex legal concepts in clear business terms, and her four years of concentrated experience in this niche felt like decades of wisdom. We emerged protected and confident, thanks entirely to her expertise.
