Employee Representation
If you believe you have been discriminated against, harassed, underpaid, or terminated unlawfully, you do not have to navigate that process alone or accept your employer's version of events.
We offer both contingency and hourly fee arrangements for employee-side matters, and will discuss which structure fits your situation during your free consultation.
- Discrimination Claims — Race, religion, sex, age, disability, pregnancy, and other protected-class discrimination.
- Sexual Harassment & Hostile Work Environment — Confidential representation and, where appropriate, litigation.
- Wrongful Termination & Retaliation — Representation for employees terminated or punished for lawful conduct, including whistleblowing.
- Unpaid Wages & Overtime Recovery — Pursuit of unpaid overtime, misclassification claims, and wage theft under the FLSA and NYLL.
- Severance Negotiation — Review and negotiation of severance offers before you sign anything.
- Whistleblower & Class Action Matters — Representation for individuals and groups reporting unlawful employer conduct.
