Business Formation
Business Disputes
Ms. Payne has also represented hundreds of individuals in business and contract disputes, labor and employment matters (before the EEOC and in state and federal courts) and in addressing business, commercial and estate planning needs.
Intellectual Property

Wrongful Termination
Employment Contract
Employment Litigation
Ms. Payne heads the firm's practice and serves as outside general counsel to over 30 area businesses and non-profit organizations in the Washington Metropolitan area. In addition to providing comprehensive representation in civil and commercial litigation matters, Ms. Payne also counsels and represents clients in various business and employment related matters including: new business formation (including LLP, LLC), securities and transactional work (including private placements of debt and equity), preparation and negotiation of contracts (buy-sell, shareholder, operating, licensing, employment, consulting and other agreements), assistance with valuations, mergers, acquisitions and asset based transactions, internal operational issues (including employment/labor disputes), litigation and arbitration of employment disputes (including FINRA) and business wind-downs/dissolutions.
Sexual Harassment
The prevalence of social media, including postings that are meant for employment-related topics in particular, has led to an increase in litigation on the subject between employees and their employers. The scenarios leading the parties to the courtroom are as varied as one might imagine. A company fires a worker over her criticisms of the boss that she posted on Facebook. Repeated attempts by a manager to "friend" a female employee on Facebook eventually leads to allegations of sexual harassment. A disappointed job applicant sues when a job offer is retracted after a hiring manager turns up something about the applicant on Twitter that the manager finds disturbing.

Personal Injury
FOR INDIVIDUALS: We represent individuals in employment, contract and labor disputes involving federal, state and local anti-discrimination statutes (i.e., Title VII, ADA, ADEA, etc.), business disputes (i.e., shareholder, partnership and employment contracts), negotiation of employment/consulting agreements, consumer matters, personal injury and estate planning.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Reverse mortgages, usually obtained from financial institutions, allow people who are at least 62 years of age to convert their home equity into cash, which is received by the homeowner either as a lump sum, a line of credit, or monthly payments. The loan becomes due, with interest, when the borrower dies, moves out of the home, sells it, or fails to pay property taxes or homeowners insurance. The end result is often that heirs of the owner sell the house, pay off the loan, and keep the difference.

Debt Collection
The bank had been a furnisher of information, but the party to whom it had given that information was not a "consumer reporting agency;" it was instead just a debt collection agency. The agency collected the information on the plaintiff simply for the purpose of collecting an alleged debt, not to enable it to furnish a consumer report to another end user of that information.
