Executive Compensation and Separation

We design compensation plans tailored to fit the specific needs of each of our clients, creating well-balanced strategies to incentivize executives and realize business objectives.

On separation, we frequently advise and represent clients regarding non-compete and non-solicitation provisions, retention agreements, non-disparagement provisions, and post-sale consulting agreements. Barton’s team routinely negotiates on the client’s behalf, designs comprehensive severance/benefit packages, ensures compliance under applicable state and federal laws, and reduces the risk for litigation in the future whether the separation is amicable or otherwise.

Additionally, clients also often seek our guidance concerning mergers or acquisitions that will affect their employment status and compensation structure.
