Our Employment Law Services
Employment law encompasses a wide range of legal protections for employees in the workplace. Below are the key areas where we offer legal representation and guidance.
Employment Discrimination
Federal and state laws prohibit discrimination in the workplace, yet many employees still face unfair treatment due to their characteristics.
Our firm is committed to helping employees stand up against discrimination in all forms, including:
Disability Discrimination – Employees with disabilities have the right to reasonable accommodations and fair treatment in the workplace. We assist clients in holding employers accountable for disability-related discrimination. Age Discrimination – Workers over 40 are often targeted for termination, demotion, or passed over for promotions due to their age. Our attorneys help employees challenge these unlawful employment decisions. Racial Discrimination – Race-based discrimination, whether through unfair hiring practices, wage disparities, or workplace hostility, is illegal. We help employees seek justice for racial discrimination. Religious Discrimination – Employers must respect employees’ religious beliefs and practices. We defend the rights of workers who face discrimination due to their faith. Gender Discrimination – Gender bias in the workplace can limit career growth and professional opportunities. Our attorneys fight to ensure employees are treated equally, regardless of gender. Pregnancy Discrimination – Expecting mothers should not face employment discrimination. We help pregnant employees denied accommodations, unfairly treated, or wrongfully terminated. Employment Harassment
A toxic work environment created by harassment—whether verbal, physical, or psychological—can severely impact an employee’s well-being. We advocate for employees subjected to workplace harassment and ensure that employers are held accountable.
In addition, unwanted advances, inappropriate comments, or a hostile work environment are unacceptable. We represent employees who have been subjected to sexual harassment in the workplace.
Employment Misclassification
Misclassification of employees as independent contractors can lead to lost wages, benefits, and legal protections. Employers may attempt to avoid legal obligations by wrongly classifying workers. We help employees challenge misclassification and recover what they are owed.
Wage & Hour Law
Employees deserve fair pay for their hard work. Wage and hour violations occur when employers fail to pay minimum wage or overtime or engage in illegal payroll practices. We represent employees shortchanged by their employers and help recover unpaid wages.
Whistleblower Retaliation
Employees who expose workplace wrongdoing, such as fraud, safety violations, or unethical practices, should not suffer retaliation. If you have faced termination, demotion, or other negative consequences for reporting illegal activities, we can help protect your rights and seek justice.
Workplace Safety
Employers are legally obligated to maintain a safe work environment for their employees. Workplace hazards, unsafe conditions, and lack of compliance with safety regulations can put employees at risk. We assist workers in ensuring their workplaces adhere to safety standards and provide legal representation for those injured.
Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides eligible employees with job-protected leave for medical or family-related reasons. If your employer has denied you FMLA leave, retaliated against you for taking leave, or failed to reinstate you, we can help assert your legal rights.
Wrongful Termination
Wrongful termination occurs when an employee is fired for unlawful reasons, such as discrimination, retaliation, or refusing to engage in illegal activities. Our firm helps employees challenge wrongful termination and seek compensation for their losses.
