Human Resources and Employment

Trinity Law Group attorneys actively counsel employers in employment legal compliance and personnel best practices. We help our clients develop, design, prepare, implement and enforce employee and human resource policies, plans and programs.

Among the documents Trinity Law Group lawyers prepare include offer letters, employment agreements, non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements, assignment of invention agreements, non-competition agreements, non-solicitation agreements, employee handbooks, compensation and bonus programs, incentive stock options, restricted stock, phantom equity plans, severance agreements and post-enforcement compliance letters.  We also prepare independent contractor agreements, sales representative agreements and referral contracts and assist optimizing the terms for the employer. We also counsel our clients on termination matters and internal record-keeping. We manage employment disputes, including termination and discrimination claims. Where appropriate, we work closely with business immigration counsel to assure conformity with immigration laws.
