Key takeaways include:

- Leave Laws (the interplay of different state, federal and local laws that govern your employees)
- Employee Agreements (how to ensure your employment agreements and severance agreements comply with all applicable law and protect your organization); and
- Restrictive Covenants (how to make sure confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation agreements are lawful and enforceable)
