Rollover Equity in a Private Equity Sale: Four Questions Founders Need to Ask
For many founders, selling to private equity is not a complete exit. The buyer may ask - or require - the founder to reinvest a meaningful portion of the sale proceeds into the post-closing business through rollover equity. That can be attractive. Rollover equity allows a founder to participate in future growth and potentially benefit from a second liquidity event when the private equity sponsor ultimately exits its investment.
Virginia Clean Slate Law: What Employers Need to Know
Virginia employers have long treated criminal background checks as a routine part of hiring: obtain the applicant’s authorization, order a background report, review the results, and decide whether any criminal history is relevant to the position. Virginia’s new “Clean Slate” framework changes that process in an important way. This article continues our series addressing the rapidly changing employment-law landscape confronting Virginia businesses.
Virginia Pay Transparency Law: What Employers Need to Know
Virginia employers have been here before. Beginning in 2020, the General Assembly enacted a broad package of employee-protection laws that materially changed the Commonwealth’s employment law landscape, including stronger wage-payment remedies, restrictions on noncompete agreements, expanded discrimination protections, pregnancy accommodation requirements, and private-sector whistleblower protections.
When Is Commute Time Compensable? DOL Guidance for Hybrid Workers
When and under what circumstances an employee must be paid for travel time has been a long standing Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) problem for employers, and one that we have covered several times in this blog. In 2018, we looked at Department of Labor (“DOL”) guidance addressing ordinary commuting, travel to customer locations, and out-of-town travel (DOL Explains When Employees Must Be Paid for Travel Time).
School Phone Bans and Custody Plans in Virginia & Maryland
As smartphones have become nearly universal, they have also become a growing challenge in schools. Teachers now compete not only with whispered conversations and passing notes, but with text messages, social media, games, videos, and a constant stream of notifications. A phone can distract an entire classroom in seconds, fuel conflicts that begin online and spill into the school day, and make it harder for students to focus, participate, and connect with one another.
Virginia Non-Compete Law Changes Effective July 1, 2026
Virginia has expanded its restrictions on employee non-compete agreements. Senate Bill 170, signed into law on April 13, 2026, amends Virginia Code § 40.1-28.7:8 in two significant respects: It limits enforcement of non-competes against employees discharged without cause unless the employer provides severance or another monetary payment. It extends civil-action rights and anti-retaliation protections to employees at all wage levels.
Virginia Arbitration Fairness Act Compliance Checklist for Businesses
Arbitration clauses are a fixture of modern commercial life. Consumer contracts, employment agreements, franchise arrangements, and service agreements routinely include pre-dispute arbitration provisions that require parties to resolve disagreements outside of court. For businesses operating in Virginia, those provisions are now subject to a new layer of state law.
