I engaged George Wood at Littler for guidance on a complex non-compete agreement and potential wrongful termination concerns. His knowledge of Minnesota employment law for management was evident, and his background, including recognition by Best Lawyers in labor and employment litigation, provided initial confidence. He correctly identified the key legal risks in my situation. However, the experience felt somewhat transactional. While his analysis was sound, there were noticeable delays in receiving drafted documents, and follow-up communications often required a nudge from my end. For a firm of Littler's stature and an attorney with his experience since graduating William Mitchell in '85, I expected a more proactive and responsive partnership. He resolved the immediate contractual issue adequately, but the process lacked the seamless client service I anticipated. He is clearly a capable attorney in the employment law space, but managing client expectations and maintaining consistent communication would elevate the service significantly.
