Located at One Broadway in Kendall Square, Cambridge, The Law Office of Katherine Skubecz provides authoritative representation exclusively to employees.

After honing her trial skills at major firms in Boston and Philadelphia, she established her practice in 2013 to champion workers against well-financed corporate employers across Massachusetts.
Comprehensive Workplace Discrimination and Harassment Defense
Massachusetts workplace statutes provide some of the strongest employee protections in the nation, but navigating administrative filings and federal litigation requires sophisticated legal counsel. If you have an urgent need for legal counsel after suffering discriminatory treatment on the job, attorney Katherine Skubecz delivers strategic advocacy across multiple areas:
- Workplace discrimination lawyers: Challenging unlawful employment bias based on race, color, national origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, pregnancy, and age before the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD) and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
- Wrongful termination lawyers: Holding corporate employers legally accountable for unlawful firings that violate statutory rights, public policy, or whistleblower protections.
- Harassment lawyers: Championing workers subjected to hostile work environments, unwanted sexual advances, supervisory intimidation, and retaliatory conduct following formal complaints.
- Employee leave protections: Enforcing employee rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and Massachusetts Paid Family and Medical Leave (PFML) when employers deny lawful leave or retaliate against caregivers.
Enforcing Rights Through Wage and Hour Lawyers
Workers throughout biotech startups, healthcare institutions, universities, retail enterprises, and tech companies deserve full payment for their labor. The Massachusetts Wage Act imposes strict penalties and mandatory triple damages for unpaid compensation. Attorney Skubecz provides decisive legal intervention for wage violations:
- Wage and hour lawyers: Litigating claims involving withheld wages, unpaid earned commissions, illegal tip pooling, and unpaid overtime for non-exempt employees.
- Employee misclassification: Challenging the unlawful misclassification of workers as independent contractors under Massachusetts strict three-prong independent contractor law, recovering lost benefits and taxes.
- Wage Act retaliation: Defending employees who suffer pay cuts, demotions, or terminations after questioning company payroll practices or asserting statutory wage rights.
Executive Severance and Employment Contract Negotiation
Beyond contentious trial litigation, the firm advises professionals, teachers, executives, and healthcare staff on complex contractual matters. Working alongside skilled contract lawyers, attorney Skubecz reviews non-competition covenants, non-solicitation restrictions, and severance packages to maximize severance pay, protect intellectual freedom, and ensure seamless professional transitions.
