Event Description

We don’t need no stinking handbook! Yes . . . . we do. In today’s litigious environment, employee handbooks are essential for all employers. They are the most important tool for ensuring that policies are enforced properly and personnel matters are handled consistently, thus protecting your firm from future liability. Join this session to discuss the important dos and don'ts in drafting a handbook for your law firm without creating employee contracts.

Learning Objectives:

  • Explain why having an employee handout is essential for your law firm
  • List essential handbook policies for all employees
  • Identify and create specific policies that are unique to a law practice
