Dedicated Employment and Labor Law Services
We are not a general practice firm; our focus is exclusively on representing employees in New York and New Jersey. This dedication means we have a deep understanding of the complexities of employment law and how to navigate them successfully. We are committed to moving quickly to protect your rights and providing straight answers in plain English. Our core practice areas include:
- Wrongful Termination Lawyers: All employees are protected from being fired for illegal reasons. We represent clients who have been terminated due to discrimination, retaliation for reporting misconduct, or for whistleblowing on unethical company practices.
- Workplace Discrimination Lawyers: Federal, state, and local laws prohibit discrimination based on a range of protected characteristics, including age, race, gender, sexual orientation, disability, pregnancy, and religion. We build strong cases for those who have been treated unfairly.
- Harassment Lawyers: We fight for employees who have been subjected to hostile work environments, including cases of sexual harassment (both quid pro quo and hostile environment) and racial harassment involving slurs or exclusionary behavior.
- Wage and Hour Lawyers: We represent clients in cases involving unpaid wages and other violations of labor laws.
