Clear, well-designed employment documents help businesses establish expectations, protect valuable interests, and reduce the risk of workplace disputes. Peck Baxter works with employers to develop employment agreements, handbooks, policies, and related documents tailored to their workforce, industry, and business objectives.

Our attorneys prepare and review executive and employee agreements, offer letters, compensation and incentive arrangements, confidentiality and intellectual property agreements, restrictive covenants, independent contractor agreements, separation and severance agreements, and other employment-related contracts. We also develop and update employee handbooks and workplace policies addressing compensation and leave, discrimination and harassment, remote work, technology and artificial intelligence, confidentiality, workplace conduct, discipline, and other important employment matters.

Employment laws and workplace practices continue to evolve, and documents that once worked well may create unnecessary risk as a business grows or expands into new jurisdictions. Peck Baxter helps employers periodically evaluate their agreements, handbooks, and policies for compliance, consistency, and alignment with current operations.

By combining employment counseling with experience in corporate law and employment litigation, we draft with an understanding of how workplace agreements and policies operate in practice—and how they may be scrutinized when a dispute arises.
