AZA is known for assisting company executives and officers in preparing and negotiating their employment agreements. AZA also assists executives with negotiations over severance packages when exiting their positions. Our work in preparing executive employment agreements for many multinational companies and C-suite executives and representing those same companies when exiting executives makes our firm uniquely qualified to assist executives in these negotiations.

In addition, AZA handles courtroom litigation for executives involved in legal disputes with their employers. AZA also represents executives when they are involved in their employers’ internal investigations, either as a target or a person with knowledge.

In addition to litigation and counseling for executives, AZA counsels many large companies on how to structure layoffs, updating employment agreements and Master Services Agreements, handling internal investigations, and terminating and reprimanding employees.

Joseph Ahmad, one of AZA’s founding partners, is nationally recognized for his knowledge and experience in executive employment law. He’s frequently quoted by national media outlets on executive employment issues. His executive employment blog is Legal Issues in the Executive Suite.
