When a Georgia dermatologist presented her employer with a notice of resignation prior to the conclusion of her three-year employment contract, her Wisconsin-based employer responded by suing the part-time employee for $820,000 per a 'stay-or-pay’ early termination clause. Now Atlanta counsel for Dr. Shenara A. Sexton has launched a counterclaim against Forefront Dermatology, alleging that its legal pursuit involves 'an effort to force her involuntary servitude to the company.' According to Dax Lopez of DelCampo Grayson Lopez, Sexton gave a four-month notice of her intent to resign after Forefront had denied her request to relocate to a Chicago-area branch of its chain.
