Executive Employment Law: Protecting Executives, Entrepreneurs and Employees by Jotham S. Stein, provides practitioners and business executives with a fundamental knowledge of executive employment -related negotiations and the laws governing executive employment. He discusses essential strategies for negotiating employment contracts, separation (termination) agreements, non-compete agreements, and founder 's stock contracts. It's an ideal guide for executives, their counsel, H.R. representatives, and any other interested party.

The corporate lawyer who represents high ranking, and sometimes high profile, executives, requires a full understanding of the dynamics of executive compensation negotiations and the types of contracts executives enter into. The same can be said of in-house counsel responsible for advising their employer or compensation committee on executive hiring, retention or termination matters. There are myriad issues beyond the requirements of compensation reporting to consider, from negotiating the employment relationship to understanding compensation packages, to considering executive's mid-employment requests, to terminating the employment relationship, whether due to performance or merger.
