About Vicki Wilmarth
The Employer’s Advocate is the blog of Vicki Hart Wilmarth, an attorney in Amarillo, Texas, who has been defending Texas employers for more than 20 years. Vicki helps businesses avoid the legal landmines threatening a company in the discrimination, overtime, unemployment, workers’ compensation, and retaliation laws. She drafts employee handbooks, covenants not to compete and contracts with key employees. Vicki also provides informative and entertaining training to managers and supervisors all over Texas.
For 12 years, Vicki has also written a monthly column for the Amarillo Globe News called “The Employer’s Advocate.” Many entries in this blog originally ran in the Globe-News. One thing Vicki has learned in her years of law practice is that business owners and managers don’t have time to keep up with all the new developments in employment law. They also don’t have the patience to read through a bunch of legal cites and jargon. They just want to know what they can and can’t do legally in managing their employees. Delivering that clear and concise information to employers is Vicki’s goal in both her column and her blog.
In her free time (what there is of it!), Vicki loves to travel, read and cook. From time to time, check the pages of this blog for recipes, travel pics and book reviews in addition to practical legal advice.
