Executive Employment Agreements
Chicago Executive Compensation Attorneys
At Ciesla & Ciesla, P.C., we assist many executive employees who are considering offers made by their employers. In many cases they are employees who have risen up through the ranks and are now being offered an executive compensation package. Or, they may have been working for a competitor and their skills are needed by another company.
Executive compensation review includes reviewing the documents from every angle, and thoroughly analyzing the documents to be sure that every provision is understood. We take into consideration the tax implications of every aspect of the proffered contract. Also, as part of an executive compensation package, companies often offer stock options/ownership clauses or stock bonuses. Depending upon exactly how these are structured, they could be a significant part of the executive pay package. Our experience enables us to sort out the good from the bad and advise our clients regarding how to proceed.
We also provide executive compensation review for employers who retain us to be sure that all their contracts comply with both state and federal regulations. For instance, we review all contracts to ensure that they comply with ERISA provisions.
Non-compete agreements, confidentiality agreements, and non-solicitation clauses are important provisions in many executive contracts. We can help you review these provisions and see the potential impact they may have on your career development. Whether you are an employee or an employer, our seasoned business law attorneys can assist you with executive compensation package/policy matters.
