A consummate professional who guided us through a complex employment dispute

Our company faced a sensitive and potentially costly wrongful termination claim from a former executive. We turned to Kyle Smith based on his long-standing reputation and his dual recognition in both management and individual employment law, which demonstrated a balanced perspective. His three decades of experience, particularly his leadership of Dentons Sirote's Employment and Labor practice, were immediately evident. Kyle provided a clear, strategic assessment, navigating us through negotiations with a steady hand. His counsel was not only legally sound but also pragmatic, focusing on a resolution that protected our interests without unnecessary litigation. The matter was settled favorably, a direct result of his deep expertise and calm professionalism. We have the utmost confidence in Kyle and his team.
