Leadership: Legal Considerations for Company Owners

The ‘law’ can sometimes be a little boring. But in this episode, Vince Torchia, VP at The Grow Group, discusses a variety of common legal situations that landscaping companies should consider. Vince recently graduated from Syracuse Law School - so you’ll hear legitimate legal insights that are invaluable for protecting yourself. Tune in to hear how keeping these strategies top of mind will protect your company, your families, and your teams.

Discussion Points:

• Exit and termination language for both sides
• Employment agreements
• Discrimination, harassment and HR - hotlines for complaints
• Keeping the wheels moving within the company so business can proceed
• Non-compete or non-solicitation clauses - every state is different
