[quote=Anonymous]I suspect the OP is either a troll or getting scammed. But, supposing that it is real, they should just come to some agreement with the nanny with a month or so paid following the trial. I don't think the retaliation laws would apply in such a situation where the family is transitioning to daycare, as opposed to hiring a new nanny. The penalties for the law aren't even that severe ($1,000 fine in MD), so it probably isn't worth worrying about too much. But you could obviously talk to the lawyer about the best way to handle it. Unfortunately, it wouldn't surprise me if the best way legally might be the worst way for the nanny. Telling the nanny before or during the trial might be seen as coercion. So it wouldn't surprise me if a lawyer would tell you to arrange daycare now, but not tell the nanny until the trial is complete. And then terminate after the trial is over according to your contract, paying out whatever weeks are required at that point.[/quote]
