OK at Work_2

OK at Work, led by Labor and Employment attorneys, Sarah Sawyer and Russell Berger, is a weekly video series that discusses employment law current events and trending topics happening in Maryland news. From COVID-19 policies to inclement weather to vaccines at work (and so much more), watch below to stay up-to-date on what's going on in Maryland and how it might impact you and your business.

I sat down with Dave Lorenzo on the Inside BS Show to discuss what business owners should consider when hiring an attorney and the importance of having a team of subject matter experts available to help when needs arise. During my conversation with Dave, I answer several questions regarding how I engage with clients and what business owners need to know when dealing with legal issues impacting their business, including:

  • Do I need a lawyer to start a business?
  • Should I work with a litigator of a transactional attorney?
  • What questions should I ask a lawyer before I hire her?

I really enjoyed my conversation with Kimberly Prescott on HR & Cocktails about the challenges employers face as many companies were hoping to return to fully return to the office this fall. While we were all hoping to talk about COVID19 less, the return to work landscape has changed significantly over the last couple of weeks. Businesses need to stay on top of updated guidance and mandates, especially since businesses have more options than they did this time last year.
