Executive Representation

When senior executives need to negotiate the terms of their employment, compensation, or severance, or seek guidance in a workplace investigation, they look for experienced lawyers who know what is at stake. 

In these sensitive negotiations, McManis Faulkner’s employment lawyers have a wealth of experience.  We have secured smooth departures, strong compensation packages, and favorable severance agreements for CEOs, C-level or C-suite executives, and other high-ranking business executives.  We have represented senior level executives in high-profile workplace investigations, change-of-control agreements, and agreements involving incentive compensation, retention, severance, and independent contracting. 

We recognize the importance of protecting our clients’ careers, reputations, and ongoing business relationships.   When executives find themselves involved in a workplace investigation, they can call upon McManis Faulkner to serve as their independent counsel. Our team supports and defends C-suite executives, founders, entrepreneurs, and other high-ranking business leaders with public and private companies in the Silicon Valley and larger Bay Area in these complicated matters.  We investigate and help negotiate the best outcomes possible to preserve our clients’ good standing in their business community.
