How we help
Our HR consulting program provides practical advice the moment employment issues come up. We review your internal processes to ensure legal compliance and help develop defensible handbooks, policies and job descriptions. Our focus is on protecting your business, so you never have to go to court.
From a single difficult termination to a full policy overhaul, we give you clear answers grounded in current law — not generic templates.
Employee handbooks
Defensible, up-to-date handbooks tailored to your workplace.
Policies & procedures
Practical policies that hold up and that managers can actually follow.
Hiring & termination
Guidance through the highest-risk moments of the employment relationship.
Wage & hour
Classification and compliance to avoid costly missteps.
Investigations
Neutral, thorough handling of workplace complaints.
Manager coaching
Equip supervisors to handle issues before they escalate.
How we work with you
Most employment problems are far cheaper to prevent than to litigate. We help you build the processes that keep issues small — and we’re a phone call away when something urgent comes up.
Answers before you ask
We’re a small company — do we really need a handbook?
Yes. Even small employers benefit from clear, written policies. A handbook sets expectations, ensures consistent treatment, and is often your first line of defense if a claim arises.
An employee just filed a complaint. What should we do first?
Don’t act hastily. Preserve documentation, avoid anything that could look like retaliation, and call us before you respond. Early guidance often prevents a manageable issue from becoming a lawsuit.
Can you help us classify employees vs. contractors correctly?
Yes — misclassification is a common and expensive mistake. We review your arrangements against current standards and help you correct course where needed.
Do you only help when there’s already a problem?
No. The best value is proactive — handbooks, training and process reviews that prevent problems. But we’re also here when something urgent lands on your desk.

How our HR services work
We offer two levels of HR support so you can get exactly what you need, whether you’re facing a specific issue right now or looking for ongoing, proactive HR guidance.
Incident-based HR support. For businesses that need help with a specific HR situation, our incident-based services provide focused, on-demand support. It’s ideal for:
- Employee issues or complaints
- Policy or documentation questions
- Compliance concerns
- Disciplinary actions or terminations
- Manager or supervisor guidance
You’ll have direct access to our HR and legal professionals for practical advice, document review or creation, and clear next steps, without committing to an ongoing program.
Ongoing HR support through our Business Counsel Program. For businesses that want consistent, proactive HR guidance, our Business Counsel Program provides ongoing access to our HR and legal experts under a predictable monthly fee. It includes:
- Ongoing HR and employment law guidance
- Policy, procedure and document creation and review
- Supervisor and employee training and counseling
- Regular check-ins to address evolving needs and priorities
- Proactive updates on changing employment laws, regulations and best practices
When you join, our team meets with key stakeholders to assess your current needs and identify immediate priorities. From there, we provide continued support through scheduled meetings, phone conferences and ongoing communication to keep initiatives moving forward and issues resolved.
Whether you need help navigating a single HR issue or want a long-term partner to support your people and compliance strategy, we meet you where you are. See the benefits of the HR Program and its program levels.
