Hayber, McKenna & Dinsmore, LLC is an elite employee-rights law practice serving Springfield, Western Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Led by veteran litigators Raymond Dinsmore, Richard Hayber, and Deborah McKenna, the firm champions workers in high-stakes wage and hour class actions, wrongful termination lawsuits, and workplace discrimination disputes, offering confidential initial consultations and contingency fee options.
Championing Employee Rights Across Massachusetts and Connecticut
When corporate employers disregard labor regulations, withhold earned compensation, or retaliate against whistleblowers, workers need trial-ready advocates to confront major institutions. Hayber, McKenna & Dinsmore, LLC, conveniently located at One Monarch Place in downtown Springfield, Massachusetts, represents workers across Hampden, Hampshire, Franklin, and Berkshire counties. Founded in 1996, the practice focuses exclusively on employee advocacy, never defending corporations or insurers. Partner Raymond Dinsmore and his colleagues have taken on Fortune 500 companies and major universities, successfully recovering millions of dollars in wrongfully withheld wages and statutory damages.
Landmark Wage and Hour Class Actions and Overtime Recovery
The Massachusetts Wage Act is among the most protective labor statutes in the country, providing for mandatory treble damages and attorney fees when employers fail to pay wages on time or misclassify workers. Operating as dedicated wage and hour lawyers and employment and labor lawyers, the firm leads high-profile collective actions and individual claims against negligent employers across New England. The attorneys routinely challenge unfair compensation models, including off-the-clock work, automated time-clock rounding, delayed payroll distributions, and unlawful tip skimming.
- Prosecuting multi-million dollar class actions under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and Massachusetts Wage Act.
- Recovering earned overtime compensation for salaried employees misclassified as exempt managers.
- Challenging illegal pay deductions, unpaid boot-up time, and uncompensated mandatory travel.
- Holding logistics companies, retail chains, and academic institutions accountable for systemic pay violations.
Assertive Representation for Wrongful Termination and Retaliation
Losing your job after reporting corporate misconduct, filing a workers' compensation claim, or taking medical leave violates state and federal laws. Serving as tenacious wrongful termination lawyers, the firm prosecutes retaliatory discharges under the Massachusetts Whistleblower Act and the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). When corporate leadership uses pretextual reviews to conceal retaliatory motives, the legal team deposes decision-makers to prove retaliation and secure front pay, back pay, and emotional distress damages.

Every employee deserves a professional workplace grounded in respect and equal opportunity. As skilled workplace discrimination lawyers and harassment lawyers, Hayber, McKenna & Dinsmore, LLC advocates for individuals facing mistreatment based on gender, race, age, disability, pregnancy, sexual orientation, or religion. The firm represents clients before the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD) and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), negotiating confidential executive severance packages or taking cases to jury trial when employers fail to remedy hostile work environments.
