Robert W. Capobianco

A knowledgeable and strategic partner for complex employment matters

Our company retained Robert Capobianco to advise us on a difficult situation involving a former executive's separation and allegations of wrongful termination. From our initial consultation, it was clear we were dealing with someone who deeply understands the intricacies of Georgia employment law. His background at Emory and his focus on management-side representation gave us immediate confidence. He didn't just react to the legal threats; he developed a proactive strategy that considered our company culture and long-term risk. His specific insight into COVID-19-related workplace policies was invaluable, as some of the issues stemmed from remote work arrangements we implemented during the pandemic. While we ultimately achieved a very favorable settlement that avoided costly litigation, there were a few instances where communication lagged slightly, requiring a follow-up from our team to get updates on non-urgent matters. That said, his written work product, from the demand letter response to the final settlement agreement, was exceptionally thorough and precise. His recognition in labor and employment litigation is well-deserved. Robert is a sharp, pragmatic attorney who we would absolutely recommend to other businesses navigating sensitive personnel challenges.
