We have tried cases in federal and state courts and before arbitration panels involving many areas of business controversy. We love what we do, and the Fensterstock name has been recognized as the hallmark of top-notch complex commercial litigation for nearly a century.

We are here to help you negotiate, settle, and, if necessary, bring your employment matters to trial.

Fensterstock, P.C. provides employment advice to executives and companies, negotiates compensation packages and separation agreements, and consults on covenants not to compete (non-compete agreements) and non-solicitation clauses. We know what provisions to look for and what to address before you extend that offer, take that new job, fire that disgruntled employee, sign away your rights, or jeopardize your chances of winning at trial.

We help ground you in the face of whistleblower actions, either by filing them for you and diligently and proactively guiding you through the process, or by protecting your company so that your company does not make costly mistakes.

In addition, we focus on representing employers and executives in employment and labor-related litigation, including cases involving non-compete agreements, non-solicitation of employee provisions, non-solicitation of clients clauses, executive termination, unpaid compensation, and employee misconduct. We have significant experience as counsel in employment actions involving injunctive relief, breach of contract, whistleblowers, and misappropriation of trade secrets.
