Todd Stanton has leveraged two decades representing companies in employment law to come to that conclusion as well as compile a list of 28 other truths in Human Resources that your team needs to hear.
Whether speaking to a conference of HR professionals or training a company’s leadership group, Todd’s program spurs great discussion about practical and effective ways to address the most common employee issues. Take comfort in knowing you’re not alone in your struggle to introduce common sense into the workplace along with some very practical applications.

With a mix of real-world experience, Stoic philosophy, and just the right amount of sarcasm, Todd cuts right to the chase when laying out principles and practicalities for anyone managing people.
A litigator by training and founder of Stanton Law, Todd focuses on management representation in employment matters. He’s well-versed in the slate of employment law shorthand — EEOC, DOL, NLRB, OSHA, ADA, FMLA, ADEA, FLSA, and Title VII — and knows first-hand how much sloppy human resources practices can end up costing. In his 25+ year career, he’s represented some of the largest companies in the country.
Todd’s refreshing approach to his legal practice seeps into the firm’s employee-first operations. He’s most proud of the platform Stanton Law provides for other entrepreneurial and ownership-minded lawyers to build their respective practices while keeping an eye on what’s most important.
A native Atlantan and Marist alum, Todd graduated from Washington & Lee University with Honors in 1995, majoring in Psychology and with a 4-year letter in baseball before graduating from UGA Law. He married Ashley in 1999, and they have two sons.
