Stock Option Litigation
|
|
| This sub-field of our employment law practice assumes a
place of its own due to the popularity of utilizing stock
option agreements as an employment benefit tool. The clients
of J.B Randolph in this area of practice, often former
executives or company officers, usually find themselves
having to challenge former companies for benefits they
justifiably believed they were entitled to after departing
from their companies. Because the average stock option
agreement is normally a sizable asset, when a dispute arises
between a company and a former executive or officer, it
takes a firm, such as ours, capable of handling complex
matters, negotiations and litigation to convince the company
on behalf of our client the risks it takes, depending on the
circumstances, to choose litigation over settlement as an
option. |
