Employment & HR Compliance (Employer-Side)
Your people power your mission. We help you protect them—and your organization—with clear, proactive HR compliance. MILA counsels Florida nonprofits and mission-driven employers on handbooks, agreements, investigations, and training so you can prevent disputes, pass audits, and foster a healthy culture without guesswork.
Why Proactive Employment Counsel Matters
Fewer Surprises, Fewer Costs
One outdated policy or misclassified worker can trigger penalties and reputational harm. Proactive guidance prevents issues before they escalate.
Fit for Mission-Driven Teams
We design policies that meet legal requirements and reflect your values—clarity for staff, confidence for leadership
Predictable, Practical Help
Clear scopes, flat pricing, and fast response times keep you focused on impact instead of invoices.

Common Questions
Do nonprofits really need employment law support?
Yes. Nonprofits face the same state and federal employment laws as any business. The difference is budget and mission pressure—so we build lightweight, compliant policies you can actually use.
What’s the difference between an employee and an independent contractor?
Classification hinges on control, integration, and economic realities. We analyze roles, update agreements, and set workflows to avoid misclassification penalties and tax issues.
Can you update our old handbook instead of starting from scratch?
Absolutely. We keep what works, fix what’s risky, and add the required notices and procedures for your jurisdiction and workforce model.
