Answered plainly, before you ask.
The questions executives most often raise before reaching out. If yours is not here, a partner will answer it directly and in confidence.
Entirely. Every initial conversation is protected and handled by a partner. Nothing you share leaves the firm, and we take no matter that would compromise your discretion.
Yes. We act exclusively for executives and professionals — never employers. That singular focus removes any conflict and keeps our judgment squarely aligned with your interests.
Engagements are tailored to the matter. We offer hourly, fixed-fee, and contingency arrangements, and we agree the structure with you in writing before any work begins.
Rarely, and never without your direction. The overwhelming majority of our work resolves quietly through negotiation, precisely to protect your reputation and your future.
Time-sensitive matters — a severance deadline, a threatened termination — receive same-day partner attention. Reach out and we will respond promptly.
Yes. With offices in New York, London, and San Francisco, and a network of trusted co-counsel, we represent executives across jurisdictions and can coordinate matters wherever they arise.
Whatever you have — your employment agreement, equity documents, any severance offer or correspondence, and a short summary of the situation. If you have nothing in writing yet, that is entirely fine.
No. Reaching out, including submitting the consultation form, does not by itself create an attorney–client relationship. That relationship is established only when we agree to it in a signed engagement.
Still have a question?
A partner will answer it directly and in confidence — no obligation, and privileged from the first word.
