An attorney review before firing an employee is a legal check of a planned termination before the employer acts on it. KEW Legal reviews the stated reason, the paper trail, and the timing so Miami-Dade and Broward employers can decide with the facts in front of them.<\/p>\n

What a Pre-Termination Review Is and Who It Is For<\/h2>\n

A pre-termination review is an attorney’s examination of a proposed firing before the employer tells the employee anything. It’s most useful while the decision is still open, not after a complaint or lawsuit has started.<\/p>\n

It suits owners, managers, and HR leads who are weighing whether to end someone’s employment. The firm’s offices are in Coral Gables and Sunny Isles Beach, and its work covers Miami-Dade and Broward County.<\/p>\n

Kristina E. Wilson is the responsible lawyer for this page. The firm acts as outside general counsel for business owners and investors, so employment questions often sit next to contracts, leases, and ownership issues.<\/p>\n

A sound reason can still look weak on paper. A review shows where the paperwork and the decision don’t line up, while there’s still time to fix the record.<\/p>\n\n

What the Review Covers<\/h2>\n

The review covers the stated reason, the written record, comparable treatment, governing agreements, timing, and final pay. Florida is generally an at-will state. An at-will employee may be fired at any time, but not for a reason the law prohibits, such as retaliation or unlawful discrimination (Laguerre v. Palm Beach Newspapers<\/a>).<\/p>\n
