Dedication And Advocacy In Employment Law And Civil Rights
Our firm takes a special interest in employment law, specifically, but our decades of experience involves a long-standing reputation for a wide range of civil rights matters.
We handle employment law and civil rights issues, including:
in the workplace or in other institutions such as schools, colleges or organizations that fail to protect participants from a hostile work environment.
based on race, sex, gender, disability, age, pregnancy or participation in a political or religious group.
and employers who retaliate against individuals who exercise their right to time off for family and medical emergencies.
that protect workers from employer retaliation when they come forward about illegal activity such as fraud or discrimination in the workplace.
that arise when individuals are not paid a fair wage for the work they have performed because of the inability to take meal and rest breaks, improper job classification or the inability to declare overtime.
for individuals who have been laid off or offered a release agreement that involves final pay and benefits.
issues such as freedom of speech violations or organizations that attempt to threaten or arrest those who exercise their fundamental civil rights.
and the pursuit of redress for the wrongdoing of individuals and organizations that failed to protect employees, tenants, students or other vulnerable people.
