Expert HR Support to help your business thrive
Compliance, policy, employee relations and more. We provide the HR support so you can focus on running your business — not navigating employment law.

FAQ
What are some of the HR topics your can help with?
We can help you with a wide variety of HR-related tasks, such as creating or updating job descriptions or forms, assistance with employee retention or transitions, investigations and corrective action, employee handbooks and manuals, HR software, policies and procedures and more.
We’re a small construction firm. Do we really need formal HR policies? Can’t we just handle things as they come up?
This is one of the most common and riskiest approaches. “Handling things as they come up” often means making inconsistent, reactive decisions that can lead to claims of unfair treatment or discrimination. Formal policies protect your business by ensuring fair, consistent, and legally compliant treatment for all employees. For small teams, clear policies are actually more critical, as any single people issue can have a major operational and financial impact.
How is this different from the employee training you offer?
Great question. Think of it this way: Our training teaches your managers and employees how to perform their jobs safely and effectively (e.g., how to conduct a safety inspection, how to give feedback). Our HR Support builds the company’s framework within which that work happens (e.g., writing the safety policy, creating the feedback procedure, ensuring compliance with labor laws). One empowers your people; the other protects and structures your organization.
We already have an employee handbook from years ago. Isn't that enough?
Employment law changes constantly (at federal, state, and local levels). A handbook from just a few years ago is likely missing critical updates on paid leave laws, anti-harassment standards, accommodation rules, and more. An outdated handbook can be as risky as having no handbook at all, as it may enforce policies that are now illegal. We recommend a legal review at least every two years.
Can you help us fire an employee who isn’t working out?
Yes. We provide critical guidance to ensure terminations are handled legally, ethically, and professionally to minimize the risk of wrongful termination claims. We’ll help you review documentation, ensure consistent application of policies, and recommend a process that protects your business while treating the individual with dignity. Important: We are not your legal counsel, but we help you build a strong, defensible position.
Do you act as our HR Manager? Will you be on-site?
We act as your off-site, on-call HR partner. You retain control and decision-making; we provide the expertise, tools, and guidance. We are not a full-time, on-site employee, which makes our services highly cost-effective. We’re available for consultations, document review, and strategic calls as needed, and we can guide your managers through processes step-by-step.
What if we only have one urgent issue? Do we need a long-term contract?
We offer both project-based support (e.g., “help us write this one policy” or “guide us through this investigation”) and ongoing retainer agreements for businesses wanting continuous support. We’ll always start with a consultation to understand your needs and recommend the most practical and cost-effective path for you.
We’re based in North Carolina but have a few employees in other states. Can you handle multi-state compliance?
Absolutely. Multi-state compliance is a complex but common challenge. We help you navigate the “patchwork” of state laws regarding minimum wage, paid leave, final pay, and other regulations to ensure your policies are compliant for every employee, no matter where they work.
