Philadelphia, PA commercial litigation attorney Stanley Cheiken talks about his experience in handling executive compensation disputes. He shares that he has represented professionals and business executives in compensation disputes for more than 30 years. Unlike minimum wage or union employees, who typically have straightforward pay structures, highly compensated employees and executives often face far more complex arrangements. These may involve bonuses, stock options, ownership interests, or intricate commission structures that sometimes require detailed accountings. In such cases, it is critical to know how to properly determine the compensation an executive has earned, especially when employers resist providing necessary information—such as project profitability. His experience has shown that asking the right questions and knowing how to compel disclosure through the courts are essential to achieving fair outcomes in these disputes.
