What we are, and what we are not
Straight about our scope.
Our advisors come from compensation, HR leadership and executive recruiting. We explain what your severance or employment terms actually commit you to, what the commercial impact is, and what to ask for. We do not represent you, draft contracts on your behalf, or opine on whether a clause would hold up in court.
