A trusted advisor for complex employment matters

Paul Zech provided exceptional counsel for a sensitive executive severance negotiation. His deep knowledge of employment law, honed over four decades, was immediately apparent. His recognition as a 'Lawyer of the Year' in this field is well-deserved. He was strategic, calm under pressure, and secured a far better outcome than I anticipated. While his firm's billing structure is premium, the value was clear. Communication was generally excellent, though there were occasional delays in email responses during very busy periods. I would confidently recommend him to any business leader.
