Biography

Aliza F. Herzberg is an employment law attorney at Herzberg Law Group in New York, New York, where she represents employers in managing all aspects of the employer-employee relationship. Her practice focuses on Employment Law – Management, with an emphasis on practical, business-minded counseling.

She advises U.S. companies, as well as U.K.- and E.U.-based companies with U.S. operations, on a wide range of employment law matters. Her work includes compliance with federal, state, and local employment laws, workforce reductions, and the drafting and negotiation of employment, executive, and severance agreements. Aliza also assists clients with employment-related due diligence in connection with mergers, acquisitions, and other corporate transactions.

Aliza regularly supports employers when sensitive workplace issues arise. She conducts and manages internal workplace investigations stemming from employee complaints and provides real-time guidance on employee discipline, terminations, and other high-risk employment decisions. Her approach is designed to help businesses address issues promptly while reducing potential legal exposure and reputational concerns.

In addition to responding to disputes, Aliza helps employers take proactive steps to reduce the risk of litigation. She provides customized training for executives, managers, and employees on workplace conduct, compliance obligations, and effective management practices. Her training programs are interactive and tailored to the needs of each organization.

When disputes cannot be resolved internally, Aliza represents employers in employment-related litigation and arbitration, including matters involving discrimination, harassment, restrictive covenants, and employment agreements.

Aliza also trains executives and managers on emerging employment law issues and frequently appears on CNBC programs to discuss developments affecting employers.

Client Testimonials

I cannot recommend Aliza highly enough as an employment lawyer. I have retained her services several times to exit high-level and at times complex and fraught corporate situations, and she has always handled them with the utmost professionalism, intelligence, respect and care for me as the client. She has also proven quite the savvy negotiator for me in entering into new contracts for senior level roles, in a recent case resulting in a very large settlement when an opportunity unexpectedly fell through. I consider Aliza indispensable, and have referred her to several friends and colleagues.
