You Can't Be A Jack Of All Trades
For days after Hurricane Sandy I was flooded with calls from disgruntled, suspended or terminated employees seeking legal advice. I guess they were stuck at home and decided to call a lawyer and discuss their issues. For the most part, employees who call me should have sought legal help far earlier than they did. I am of the opinion that given the current workplace environment every employee needs to keep a lawyer on call. If retained early enough a lawyer may be able to save an employee's job, and if that is not possible, for one reason or another, some type of severance agreement may be negotiated which may or may not involve money, a neutral employment reference, and/or an agreement that an employee may apply for unemployment compensation benefits without the employer contesting benefits. A lawyer may be able to assist with a disability claim, or perhaps fashion some other remedy.
