Contract Drafting and Review


 

Contracts impact the daily operations of a business and the daily lives of people. Whether it’s a contract between your business and another, a lease agreement, or some other legal agreement, it’s important that you have the guidance and assistance of an attorney as you draft and finalize these agreements. 

Residential/Commercial Leases
We can draft, interpret or review a commercial or residential lease agreement to ensure that the lease you sign includes the terms you need and can be understood by all parties involved. We go beyond the basic features that many attorneys provide and tailor lease agreements to the specific needs of our clients. If you need to have a lease agreement drafted, or if you have concerns about a potential lease agreement, do not hesitate to contact an experienced attorney at the Law Offices of Ann M. Kariuki.

Employment Contracts
Signing a contract with a potential employer, or your current employer, is an important step. You and your potential employee/employee are making promises to each other about your obligations to each other. Employment contracts can cover a wide assortment of factors and conditions related to the employment relationship, e.g. duties imposed on the employer and the employee and employment benefits to be received by the employee. Because the effect of these promises is so great, it is advisable for an employee to have an attorney review proposed employment contracts. We can help you attempt to negotiate better contract terms on your behalf and provide you with a better understanding of what you are agreeing to, so that you begin your employment in the best possible position.

Severance Agreements
Whether you’ve been terminated, asked to resign by your employer, or you think its best for you to separate from your employer, we can help you negotiate a severance package that is your best interest. A severance package may contain a number of provisions that can affect your legal rights, including severance pay, a continuation of health care benefits, and eligibility for unemployment. We will take the time to understand what is most important to you under the circumstances, and use that understanding as we advocate for you. Our clients know that the conversation doesn’t stop at the first severance package offer. We will fight for your future wages and your future employment rights,
