EKS Legal Solutions (“EKSLS”) was founded in January of 2015 by Eric K. Smith, after having spent nearly two decades as a lawyer and shareholder at large national and international employment law firms. However, its “big law firm” roots, EKSLS is not (and does not aim to be) a traditional law firm. EKSLS combines vast legal expertise and experience with a strong commitment to deliver exceptional e
mployment law and non-compete services at rates that are affordable to small businesses as well as individual executives, managers, and professionals. We are committed to providing each client with the individualized attention they deserve, and we take pride in our responsiveness and around-the-clock availability. EKSLS also offers outstanding mediation services that empower parties to achieve positive settlement outcomes in disputes involving employment law claims, non-compete and trade secret issues, and allegations of unfair competition. For most legal disputes, there is a settlement framework that is better than the litigation alternative for everyone concerned, but embattled parties are often unable to see and agree to the settlement solution on their own. Our mediation services bring to bear the legal expertise, litigation experience, and all of the intangible skillsets that are needed to help parties resolve even the most hotly-contested and complex cases. We also perform skillful workplace investigations of internal employee complaints and sensitive personnel matters. Effective internal investigations are essential to both employment law compliance and litigation-avoidance. EKSLS helps employers fulfill legal duties and avoid litigation landmines by conducting unassailable objective investigations that are supported by bullet-proof documentation.
