Expert guidance through a complex employee termination

Our company recently faced a challenging situation involving the termination of a long-term employee who we believed had violated several key policies. The potential for a wrongful discharge claim was significant, and we needed counsel who understood both the legal intricacies and the practical realities of managing a workforce. Richard Hilbrich was recommended to us, and his background in labor and employment law for management was immediately evident. He provided clear, actionable advice that helped us navigate the documentation and process, ultimately allowing us to resolve the matter without litigation. His recognition in the field is well-deserved. While his strategic guidance was invaluable, there were a few instances where email responses took a bit longer than expected during the initial fact-finding phase. Overall, Richard’s expertise from Jackson Lewis and his focus on preventive counsel gave us the confidence we needed to handle a difficult personnel decision correctly.
