As principal and founder of the employment law firm Transitions Strategies, LLC, Robin F. Bond represents the employee's best interests in workplace legal matters. She is well-known for her representation of executives in both new employment contract and severance deals, with both publicly-traded and privately-held companies. In addition to her work in the area of employment contracts and executive compensation, Robin also represents individuals in a wide range of legal disputes, including wrongful terminations, civil rights discrimination claims, sexual harassment, breach of contract and wage payment and collection matters.
As a nod to her outstanding work, Ms. Bond holds an Avvo “Superb” rating; Main Line Today magazine has named her as a top attorney for over 10 years- and named her as its #1 Top Employment Lawyer for 2018- and for over 10 years, Suburban Life magazine has consistently named her to its “Top Attorneys" list for employment law. For the past 5 years, she has been named by the National Association of Distinguished Counsel as among the nation's top 1% of employment attorneys.
Robin is a nationally recognized attorney and her wide range of experience as an in-house corporate counsel, a private practitioner and an entrepreneur give her an edge in negotiating deals. She has frequently been quoted in a variety of television, radio, on-line and print media, including, CNN, Fox News, the New York Times, the New York Post, the Wall Street Journal, Corporate Counsel, Time, Monster.com, and Career Builder.
Robin is the author of the book How to Negotiate a Killer Job Offer, for which Mark Cuban of Shark Tank wrote the foreword.
