Identity Theft
Working with breach notification vendors to distribute individual notifications, set up call centers, and provide identity theft/credit monitoring services
Restraining Order
Additionally, our team has extensive experience in enforcing restrictive covenants and contesting overly broad restrictive covenants in courts all across the country. We are especially sensitive to the immediate action that is required in these types of cases, which often proceed on expedited schedules. We readily provide the urgent assistance needed to obtain or defend against extraordinary relief, like temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions. In fact, through our quick action and “sense of urgency,” we have stopped employee conspiracies, trade secret theft, and employee raids in their early stages, saving our clients from experiencing significant irreparable harm.

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
Advising boards and executive management concerning corporate governance, including board and committee make-up, decision-making processes, and strategic planning
Mergers and Acquisitions
Our clients include private, public and institutional owners, investors, developers, retailers, tenants, contractors and lenders, some of whose primary business is real estate, others of whom engage in real estate transactions as an ancillary part of their business. Our attorneys assist clients with transactions nationwide, whether for direct investment, ownership and management, in developing lifestyle, shopping center, office, multi-family, residential and mixed-use projects, related to corporate mergers and acquisitions, in connection with hospital and healthcare transactions, or in developing and leasing industrial properties. Identifying and fulfilling our client’s goals and expectations is our highest priority.
Business Disputes

Participation in the drafting of state tax legislation relating to a variety of taxpayers and topics, including limited liability companies, banks, and certain sales and use tax exemptions
Construction Contracts
Representation of a hospitality company whose business is the construction and management of hotels throughout the United States. This company owns and developed multiple brands. Our representation included drafting and negotiating construction contracts and design agreements and resulting litigation.
Trade Secrets
The members of Wyatt’s Non-Competition, Business Information, and Trade Secret Protection Team know how to protect your bottom line by identifying and implementing measures to guard against unfair competition and trade secret theft. Our attorneys routinely draft enforceable, comprehensive confidentiality, non-competition, and non-solicitation agreements to provide the maximum level of protection permitted for our clients’ needs. Our team also advises clients on the implementation of policies and procedures (or the audit of existing policies and procedures) that can improve the management of confidential information in today’s digital age where proprietary information can be compromised in ever evolving ways.
Intellectual Property
Wyatt's intellectual property blog, "Finding IP Value," strives to keep you up-to-date on the latest developments in intellectual property law that may have an impact on your business.
Unfair Competition
At Wyatt, we understand the importance of standing apart from competitors. Regardless of the nature of your business or institution, your success is often dependent upon your key business relationships and your trade secrets and other competitive business information. In many instances, these valuable assets are entrusted to your employees, contractors, and associates upon whom you depend to grow your market share. These employees, contractors, and associates, however, are more mobile than ever. Inevitable workforce turnover can expose your company, endanger the confidentiality of your business information, jeopardize customer relationships, and lead to unfair competition.
Antitrust
Antitrust and trade regulation laws pose some of the most significant risks for our clients. Our team of experienced lawyers assists our clients in compliance with these laws and in pursuing or defending litigation that may arise under these laws.

Employment Law

Wrongful Termination
Obtained early summary judgment and dismissal of civil rights suit against medical provider brought by a former employee alleging wrongful discharge and retaliation, and discrimination based on age and race.
Employment Discrimination
Motion for Summary Judgment granted, Jefferson Circuit Court, regarding plaintiff’s race discrimination, racially hostile work environment, and retaliation claims.
Employment Contract
Executive Employment Agreements and Arrangements: We work with clients to design, draft and implement executive employment agreements, which may include provisions for performance awards and other incentive compensation, stock-based compensation, change-of-control and severance protection, and other individually-designed features.
Employment Litigation
Education law encompasses the diverse array of legal issues navigated by schools in the course of their business. Wyatt has extensive experience representing a wide variety of educational institutions on matters ranging from employment litigation to patent applications. Our experience allows us to provide fast and efficient advice to schools and other education-related clients.
Non-compete Agreement
Our core group of twelve lawyers and two paralegals regularly assists clients across the full spectrum of industry, business operations, and related areas of law – Biotechnology, Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Medical, Mechanical, Electronic, Computer, Copyright, Trademark, Licensing and Development, Confidentiality Agreements, Employee Non-Compete Agreements, Corporate IP Audits, IP-Secured Lending, Entertainment and Fine Arts, Trade Secrets, and Patent, Copyright, Trademark, Trade Secret, and other litigation involving all these and other IP subject matter. We also manage protection of intellectual property in numerous foreign countries through established relationships with top firms there.
Severance Agreement
Severance Arrangements (including Early Retirement Windows): We provide counsel and advice to clients with regard to the design, drafting and implementation of voluntary and involuntary severance agreements and programs, both for a single individual or for a classification of employees. Closely related, we provide counsel and advice on the design, drafting and implementation of early retirement windows (whether comprised of incentives provided through a tax-qualified pension plan or otherwise).
Sexual Harassment
Team members have recently provided sexual harassment training for a client’s workforce, given multiple presentations on writing social media policies for the workplace, explained to a group of human resources professionals the ways that the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act is effecting workplace policies and procedures, and conducted a mock trial to educate HR managers about the litigation process.

Property Law

Premises Liability
The Firm has significant experience defending against claims for personal injury or property damage from environmental exposure to hazardous substances, and in other mass tort actions in the area of products liability and premises liability. We have succeeded in defeating inappropriate attempts to seek class certification, and in excluding testimony from junk science experts. We stay abreast of judicial decisions and legislation impacting theories of liability and of accepted scientific conclusions. We have also enjoyed tremendous success at correcting on appeal errors by trial court judges.
Construction Litigation
Draft design and construction agreements that use sustainable building standards required by architects, designers and construction contractors to ensure that the end result meets the developers’ green building designations
Real Estate Transactions
The Firm routinely helps clients assess and manage environmental liabilities in business and real estate transactions. This includes managing due diligence investigations appropriate for the timing of a transaction and the risk tolerance of our client, and then structuring the transaction to clearly allocate liability risks and minimize those risks for our client. This includes counseling clients on the availability of and how to qualify for liability exceptions recently enacted to promote reuse of Brownfield properties, and how to use voluntary cleanup programs and prospective purchaser agreements to establish greater certainty about the cost of addressing known property contamination.
Easement
Land Use and Zoning
Wyatt’s Sustainability Team is comprised of lawyers experienced in land use and zoning, litigation, real estate, tax, general corporate services, and natural resources & environmental law. Our team also includes the first Kentucky attorney to be a LEED accredited professional and the current Chair of the Kentucky chapter of U.S. Green Building Council.
Landlord-Tenant Disputes
Leasing. Apart from the inherent value of the land and improvements which comprise any project, the project’s leasing is the key for the creation of value which exceeds the sum of the project’s parts. The cash flow generated is a product of both each particular lease’s specific terms and conditions, and the cumulative interactions of all of the leases comprising a project’s occupancy. Our lawyers maintain a sophisticated understanding of the inter workings of lease provisions and overall project leasing which directly impact a leased project’s level of success. Our experience extends to all types of properties, including office, retail, industrial, health care and multi-family projects, on a local, regional and national basis. Our negotiation and documentation of leasehold interests include ground leases, sale and leaseback transactions, shopping center leases, warehouse leases, office leases, medical office leases, and leasing of various mixed-use projects. We routinely deal with unique issues such as air rights, medical, restaurant, entertainment and other unique uses, condominium regimes and the intricacies of mixed-use projects. We also assist our landlord and tenant clients in assessing and enforcing their rights and remedies under their leases. We establish extensive reporting and communications for each step and each phase of leasing, tenant by tenant, moment by moment, so that our clients know the status of these efforts and how timing fits their objectives. Time is money. Rate structure is also money; our offices operate in markets with lower rates and overhead compared with our national competitors.
Property Damage
Merrick, et al v. Brown-Forman Corporation and Heaven Hill Distilleries, Inc. – Plaintiffs seek class certification for personal and real property damage and injunctive relief for mold allegedly caused by defendants’ whiskey warehouse operations. The putative class representatives assert causes of action for negligence, trespass, and nuisance.

Immigration Law

Student Visas
Our services to individual clients have also included student visas (J and F visas), fiancé visas (K visa), and consultation for the obtainment of permanent residency for family members.

Health Law

Personal Injury
Wyatt Arbitration and Mediation Services consists of partners and counsel at Wyatt, Tarrant & Combs, LLP who act as neutrals in arbitrations and mediations, in addition to their primary areas of practice. Service area members have experience mediating and/or arbitrating a variety of disputes ranging from complex construction, business and financial litigation to employment and personal injury cases. We understand that not all cases are meant to be tried to a judge or jury, and mediation and arbitration can be useful tools in providing a confidential dispute resolution process that avoids many of the costs, delays and risks inherent in litigation.
Medical Malpractice
In addition to his employment law practice, Joe frequently represents healthcare facilities in defending against medical malpractice claims. He also handles construction litigation matters. Lastly, Joe frequently defends companies and organizations against premises liability claims. Show More
Dog Bites
Wyatt created a handbook so that the internal counsel would be prepared to address many common situations when they arose. Among other things, this handbook included information about who can make medical decisions when a patient is incapacitated, how to report patients with certain communicable diseases or dog bites, involuntary treatment of the mentally ill, and numerous other topics.
Disability Discrimination

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
But sometimes litigation cannot be avoided. In those instances, Wyatt’s fiduciary litigation team is uniquely qualified to serve your needs. The combination of the Firm’s veteran litigators and the region’s top estate planning attorneys create a team that gets results. We represent individual stakeholders (such as estate or trust beneficiaries and business partners), institutional fiduciaries such as trust companies, banks, charities, educational institutions, corporate directors, and corporate officers in these important and complex cases. We also maintain a database of experts, such as psychiatrists and forensic accountants, who are knowledgeable and courtroom-ready in this type of proceeding.
Wills
Trusts
We devote extensive attention to clients’ charitable planning and advising non-profit organizations on tax compliance matters. We help our clients magnify their philanthropic impact by establishing donor advised funds, charitable trusts, charitable lead trusts, charitable foundations and private operating foundations.
Power of Attorney
A fiduciary is a person that stands in a position of trust. Fiduciaries include trustees, conservators, guardians, executors, administrators, attorneys in fact (agents acting under a power of attorney), business partners, and corporate officers to name a few.
Probate

Finance Law

Bankruptcy
Although the range of their collective experience is broad, these attorneys devote most of their time to guiding both lenders, debtors and interested parties through often complex and fast-moving Chapter 11 cases, and have developed extensive experience in coal industry related Chapter 11 reorganizations and liquidations. In these cases, the bankruptcy & creditors rights group draws from the Firm’s long history and extensive experience with coal regulatory, property, transactional and environmental matters. These cases raise diverse and unique issues due to the blending of bankruptcy law and a complex Federal and state regulatory scheme governing the operation of many such businesses. Recent coal industry cases of note in which the Firm has had significant involvement include Black Diamond Resources, Miller Bros. Coal, Horizon Natural Resources, and Lodestar Energy.
Foreclosure
Our bank client needed a nonjudicial foreclosure of real property collateral that consisted of approximately 200 acres of recreation or... Read More
Tax Law
Tax Exemption and Fundraising. We understand the complex tax rules and regulations that apply to nonprofit and tax-exempt educational organizations whether they seek to obtain or preserve their tax-exempt status. Our attorneys frequently advise educational organizations on tax planning and tax controversy matters. We can assess available corporate structures, including joint ventures, and craft governance solutions designed to best achieve your educational objectives. Our attorneys regularly counsel boards of directors about complying with fiduciary duties and corporate governance practices. And we work with executive compensation committees, guiding them through the rebuttable presumption safeharbor procedures under the excess benefit transaction rules.
