Dallas Employment Contract Attorneys
Employment contracts are a critical component of many employer-employee relationships.

Severance Agreements and Severance Packages
Companies and employees frequently enter into severance agreements to set forth the compensation and benefits that may be paid to an employee at the termination of the employment relationship. The amount of severance pay is one issue that will be negotiated in a severance agreement. Other issues include insurance benefits, references or non-disparagement clauses.
Our attorneys are experienced in negotiating, drafting and reviewing severance agreements as well as representing employers and employees when litigation arises after the parties entered into a severance agreement. If you have been laid off, we can review your severance agreement/package and make sure it is fair and reasonable.
Physician and Executive Employment Agreements
The drafting of physician and executive employment agreements can be particularly complex. Many issues can arise when physicians or executives sever their relationship with a practice or a company. These issues include non-compete provisions, compensation and malpractice insurance issues. Our attorneys can assist you with negotiating the best agreement to meet your goals and objectives upon ending the business relationship.
