Both Sides of the Table

What it sounds like
when it actually works.

HR / Employer
She rewrote our entire employee handbook in a week and saved us from a lawsuit we didn't know was coming. I didn't even know we were exposed.
Darnell Washington
VP of People Operations, Series B Startup
Employee
I didn't think I had a case. They showed me I had three.
Maria Castellanos
Former Operations Manager
HR / Employer
Counsel walked us through a reduction in force that touched 40 people. Not one WARN Act violation. Not one complaint filed.
Priya Mehta
Chief HR Officer, Growth-Stage Tech Company

You shouldn't have to explain why it felt wrong. We already know.

Employee
The retaliation started two days after I filed my complaint. They knew exactly what to do.
James Okafor
Software Engineer
HR / Employer
We'd been classifying contractors as employees for years without knowing it. The exposure was significant. Counsel fixed it before anyone came looking.

Our Practice

The people who
already sit across
from both sides.

We built Counsel because employment law demands fluency in two languages — the language of risk management and the language of lived experience. Our team holds both.
