OUR PRACTICE

I didn’t create this firm to scare businesses into compliance or to chase every lawsuit. I created it because I believe employment law works best when it’s clear, accessible, and grounded in real-world strategy — not fear or formality.

At Jacobs & Associates, I work with clients who care about doing the right thing but need help understanding what that means legally. My job is to make sure they get it right from the start — and have the tools to respond when things go sideways.

A Firm Built on Practical Values

Employment law shouldn’t feel like a trap. It’s not about choosing between protecting your business or respecting your team. A strong legal foundation lets you do both.

This firm is built around that belief. I offer employment law services that are:

• Clear — no legal jargon, just practical guidance.

• Preventive — designed to stop problems before they become legal emergencies.

• Values-aligned — because good law supports good workplaces.

Who I Represent

I serve:

• Business owners who want confidence in their policies, pay practices, and personnel decisions.

• Hospitality leaders who need help navigating tip credits, SLA issues, and wage law compliance.

• HR professionals facing internal complaints or government audits.

• Executives and employees navigating severance, unpaid wages, discrimination, or retaliation.

I know how these issues play out on both sides of the table — because I’ve been there.

My Perspective

Before launching this firm, I worked at large law firms advising companies of all sizes. I’ve defended businesses in wage claims and audits, and I’ve represented individuals in discrimination and retaliation cases. That full-spectrum experience informs everything I do.

I don’t just know the law — I know how to apply it in a way that protects your reputation, your finances, and your peace of mind.

What to Expect When You Work With Me

• I respond quickly.

• I explain things in plain English.

• I give you a strategy, not just a summary.

• And I’ll tell you what you need to hear — even when it’s not what you expected.

My goal is to help you move forward informed, protected, and confident in your next step.

Why I Do This Work

I believe strong workplaces are built on trust, fairness, and clear boundaries. Employment law — done right — makes that possible.

Whether I’m helping a business build a compliant workplace or representing an employee who’s been wronged, my mission is the same: fight the good fight, with clarity and purpose.
