Business & Contract Litigation

The lawyers at Garau Germano Hanley & Pennington, P.C. can provide legal help when Indiana business professionals need it. Our lawyers have successfully represented Indiana business professionals in claims involving employment contracts, severance agreements, and shareholder disputes.

A frequent issue in these cases is whether an employer has a right to terminate an employee “for cause” and thus avoid an obligation to pay compensation under a severance agreement or employment contract. The difference between a “for cause” termination and a “not for cause” termination can be thousands, or hundreds of thousands, of dollars.

Garau Germano Hanley & Pennington, P.C. is one of the few firms in Indiana with experience in these cases and the willingness to handle them on a contingency fee basis. Employees who have lost their job are frequently not in a position to pay an attorney on an hourly basis. We recognize this fact, and are willing to wait to receive payment until we obtain a recovery for the employee.

If you have a business or employment contract claim in Indiana, please contact us for a consultation. There is no fee and no obligation.
