Meet Karly Wannos, Esq.

My name is Karly Wannos and I am a Florida employment attorney for businesses. I have been practicing exclusively employment law for over 15 years, am a litigator, Circuit court mediator, and conduct workplace investigations and an HR Consultant.

It is important for businesses with employees to consult with employment counsel or an HR professional. Even in at will employment states, employees can sue the employer for wrongful termination claims, and it is very easy for them to do so through the EEOC. There are also issues that come up in the hiring/interview stage, properly classifying and paying employees, what to do when they need time off for medical issues and more. Many of the employment issues can be resolved through proper training of supervisors and the management team on how to respond to certain issues that come up in the workplace, so they can be resolved before they turned into something larger and more damaging to the company. The best way to do this is through an employee handbook, policies and raining programs so the supervisors know what to look out for when making decisions and navigating the employment laws.
