A strategic and knowledgeable employment law advisor

Our company retained William Oden at Ward and Smith to advise on a complex, multi-plaintiff wage and hour dispute that threatened significant liability. From our first meeting, his deep understanding of North Carolina labor law and his strategic, management-side perspective were evident. He leveraged his extensive background in Labor Law - Management to not only mount a strong defense but also to counsel us on proactive policy changes to mitigate future risk. His recognition in the field is well-deserved, as his approach was both thorough and pragmatic, focusing on achieving a resolution that protected our business interests. The one area where we experienced occasional delays was in receiving responses to non-urgent emails, which sometimes took a couple of days. However, when it mattered, he was always available and decisive. His blend of legal acumen and business insight from his MBA background made him a valuable partner. We are very satisfied with the outcome he secured and would confidently recommend him to any business facing employment litigation or compliance challenges.
