Since 1972, Bill Hayden has been representing primarily employers of all sizes locally, regionally and nationally on all types of personnel and employment-related matters. His experience includes representing employers before state and federal courts as well as regulatory agencies, for example, the EEOC, the Dept of Labor, and the National Labor Relations Board and in private mediations and arbitrations. Typical issues Bill has handled over these years include employment discrimination, wrongful discharge, sexual harassment, breach of contract and disputes as well as advising corporations in the formulation and implementation of staff reduction programs that minimize legal exposure; drafting and implementing alternative dispute resolution policies and procedures to reduce litigation exposure; preparing Executive Employment Agreements and Executive Separation Agreements; litigating non-compete, non-solicitation, and other restrictive covenants; and assisting in the resolution of internal personnel complaints before they escalate into litigation.
