Client Testimonials

“Chris Strianese was invaluable at a time when it appeared my options were limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed practically impossible. His calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself and my family. His response time was exceptional and his guidance/knowledge was remarkable throughout my entire case. I am eternally grateful for his service and I hereby recommend Mr. Strianese without reservation.”

Lisa S.

“Chris was wonderful to work with and made me feel at ease. As I am sure most clients feel when facing possible litigation, I was anxious, frustrated and overwhelmed. He was professional and thoroughly answered all of my questions. His knowledge of the law and ability to set realistic expectations was crucial during a time when it would have been easy to feel powerless. And even though we were dealing with this situation during the holidays, Chris was always responsive. I would confidently recommend Strianese Huckert and Chris Strianese.”

Ashley J.

“Highly recommend Strianese Huckert! I spoke to a couple of other lawyers about my case but once I spoke to Tamara, I knew she understood me and had my back. She was very responsive to all my questions and concerns. Her and Chris both gave me excellent advice regarding my case. I was very pleased with how my case turned out.”

Maria B.

“My experience with Chris and his firm was exceptional. He was responsive and answered my inquiries with professionalism, careful consideration and provided follow up to provide me with comfort when dealing with a difficult situation. He never spoke from the hip but was diligent in his review of my situation and advised me with reasonable explanations and background. I have dealt with many lawyers both personal and professional and I would recommend Chris without hesitation.”

Patricia R.

“Strianese Huckert put my mind at ease by responding timely and providing straight-forward legal advice that I could understand. Had an emergency employee legal situation and I emailed Strianese Huckert in a panic. This was my first time needing an employment lawyer. Tamara Huckert took the time to provide enough direction that same day to put my mind at ease. Strianese Huckert ultimately helped my business navigate the entire legal situation by being present, supportive and knowledgeable.”

Charlotte Employment and Severance Agreements Lawyer

While most employment relationships start out full of cooperation and optimism, they do not always end that way. It is difficult enough for an employee when their employment comes to end without discovering that they are subject to arduous restrictive covenants or other contract terms signed years earlier without a full understanding of what they were agreeing to.

At Strianese Huckert LLP, our Charlotte employment and severance agreement lawyers represent employees in all manner of contract issues. Any employee who is asked to sign an offer letter, employment contract, non-competition or non-solicitation agreement, severance agreement, waiver or release, or any other contract or agreement can benefit from seeking legal advice prior to signing.  To schedule a completely confidential initial consultation with a skilled North Carolina employment attorney, please call our Charlotte law office today.

A Charlotte-based employee rights’ firm, Strianese Huckert assists clients with the full spectrum of contract issues. We will make sure that your agreement conforms to the requirements of North Carolina law and protects your best interests. Among other types of employment agreements, our legal team has experience with: 

Offer Letters and Employment Contracts

If you recently received an offer letter and are preparing to sign an initial employment agreement, our Charlotte attorneys can review the contract, explain the implications of the terms, and help you take action to negotiate any areas of concerns. 

Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation Agreements

Some companies and organizations ask workers to sign agreements that affect their post-employment restrictions. These are known as restrictive covenants. If you have any questions about non-compete agreements and/or non-solicitation agreements, our Charlotte employment attorneys can help.
