Rachel Saady-Saxe

Invaluable guidance through a complex non-compete dispute

Navigating a non-compete agreement dispute with a former senior executive was a daunting prospect for our company. We engaged Rachel Saady-Saxe at FordHarrison, and her counsel was nothing short of exceptional. Despite her recent graduation from American University Washington College of Law, Rachel’s command of the nuanced legal landscape in both Washington D.C. and Las Vegas was immediately apparent. Her recognition in Best Lawyers for Labor and Employment Law - Management is clearly well-deserved. Rachel meticulously analyzed our agreements and the executive’s new role, providing a clear, strategic roadmap that balanced legal rigor with practical business sense. She anticipated opposing counsel's arguments and prepared us thoroughly for negotiations. Her professionalism in every interaction—always responsive, precise, and calm under pressure—instilled great confidence. The result was a favorable settlement that protected our legitimate business interests without costly litigation, a testament to her skill in employment litigation. Rachel is a formidable advocate who delivers results that belie her years of practice. I would recommend her to any business facing sensitive employment matters.
