Cease & Desist: Your Weapon Against Negative Job References Part 3

Last time I discussed a Cease and Desist letter and how letters can put a stop to career damaging feedback.

So how do you find legal counsel familiar with issuing cease-and-desist letters? One option is to contact Allison & Taylor (www.allisontaylor.com), the same company well known for its reference and background-checking services.

The company works with attorneys well-versed in employment law who will review a report from a negative reference and report back to the job seeker on their possible legal options. Following the review (fee is $150 & includes a secondary reference check after issuance of the letter) the attorney spells out possible “next steps” and the legal fees associated with each. While there are no assurances that legal action is feasible or guaranteed, Allison & Taylor notes that over half of all the job references they conduct receive negative feedback, and that the input from many of these warrants careful legal assessment.
