GardnerFrankhouser is a boutique law firm focusing exclusively on the representation of individuals in complex employment matters. Our lawyers have particular expertise in wage and hour law, executive employment contracts and compensation, non-compete agreements, theft of trade secrets, and wrongful termination. We advocate for the rights of employees under state and federal wage and hour laws and advise and represent executives, senior managers, and professionals on all legal issues arising out of the creation or termination of an employment relationship. As former management employment lawyers and senior Human Resources executives, we bring a unique perspective to an employment law practice. Our approach is practical and holistic: we believe effective representation of a client in any given situation requires attention to many factors beyond just the legal issues.
