Expert guidance through a complex non-compete dispute

I engaged Stephen Sheinfeld at Winston & Strawn to advise my company on a sensitive non-compete and trade secret matter involving a departing senior executive. His deep knowledge of New York employment law for management was immediately apparent. He efficiently outlined our legal position and potential litigation risks, referencing strategies that clearly drew from his 12+ years of experience and his recognized expertise in Labor Law - Management. The outcome was favorable, and his counsel was invaluable in navigating the complexities to avoid a protracted court battle. While his billing rates reflect his standing at a top-tier firm, which is understandable, communication response times from his team could occasionally be a day slower than ideal during non-critical phases. Overall, I highly recommend Stephen for any business facing challenging employment litigation or preventative counsel.
