This article by Outten & Golden partner Wendi S. Lazar sketches a map through the convoluted terrain of representing multinational and expatriate employees. Simply determining whether there may be a cause of action can require careful parsing of the laws of multiple jurisdictions and the employer’s corporate structure as well as the usual inquiries into the employee’s and employer’s conduct and relevant contracts. Using a case study of one employee’s circumstances and potential legal claims, Lazar outlines the important issues an attorney must resolve in order to best counsel a client.
