Represented a C-suite executive of a Fortune 500 company who relocated across the country for a high-profile executive role, only to discover that the position's responsibilities had been materially changed after the offer was accepted. Negotiated an early exit from the employment agreement, including full reimbursement of relocation expenses and resolution of outstanding stock options.
Negotiated the settlement of a deferred benefit plan on behalf of a long-tenured executive at a publicly traded company. The matter involved complex plan terms, timing rules, and tax considerations. Successfully obtained a favorable lump sum payout that exceeded what the client would have received under the plan's standard distribution schedule.
Assisted a C-suite executive in securing coverage for an employee discrimination claim that arose after the executive had already departed the company. Direct involvement in negotiations with the company and its insurers resulted in the claim being dismissed entirely.
Represented a C-suite executive in negotiating a departure and severance package from one of the most recognized companies in the United States. Navigated complex internal dynamics and equity considerations to achieve a favorable separation on terms that protected the client's financial interests and reputation.
Represented a C-suite executive in negotiating an early exit and severance package from a large technology company that was also asserting significant cost claims against the executive. Successfully secured a favorable severance arrangement and obtained a complete waiver of the costs the company had claimed.
Represented a professor denied tenure at a top-15 ranked university in the United States. Conducted a thorough review of the denial, identified procedural and substantive grounds for appeal, and represented the client in a multi-day evidentiary hearing before a University tribunal. The client prevailed and obtained a significant financial settlement.
Assisted a professional athlete in successfully obtaining a disputed additional benefit in compliance with the applicable collective bargaining agreement. The matter required careful analysis of complex CBA provisions and negotiation with the league and relevant parties to secure the benefit to which the client was entitled.
Successfully defended a large resort company in litigation, and continues to serve as outside general counsel to that company, providing ongoing legal guidance across corporate and operational matters. The representation reflects FineCounsel's capacity to handle complex institutional matters as a trusted long-term legal partner.
Obtained a multimillion dollar verdict against an international corporation following a multi-day arbitration regarding an executive's entitlement to a finder's fee. Despite a strong legal argument advanced against the executive's right to the fee, the arbitration panel sided with the plaintiff. The award was subsequently upheld by a United States District Court after extensive post-arbitration litigation.
Represented the CEO of a large medical services provider in arranging for resignation with severance, which was not part of the original employment contract. Also negotiated favorable bonus treatment and continuing benefits, and successfully advocated for modification of the client's non-compete agreement.
Successfully negotiated on behalf of a C-suite client for narrower terms in a non-compete agreement, allowing the client to take another role in the same general industry.
Successfully defended a lawsuit alleging that a client's logo was infringing on another business's registered copyright. Following a period of successful motion practice, the case was dismissed by the plaintiff with no settlement payment from the client.
Successfully located and recovered over $3 million that had been taken from clients under false pretenses. Utilizing offshore connections and knowledge of international banking regulations, FineCounsel recovered funds from the attorney holding the money in escrow in the pre-litigation stage — within one week of the misappropriation.
