Core Employee Rights and Workplace Practice Areas
The practice represents individuals confronting all forms of workplace mistreatment under federal statutes and the New York State Human Rights Law:
Workplace Sexual Harassment and Hostile Environments
No worker should have to endure inappropriate touching, lewd comments, or coercive advances to keep their job. Acting as dedicated harassment lawyers, the firm prosecutes sexual harassment claims involving supervisors, coworkers, and third-party clients, taking advantage of New York uncapped compensatory and punitive damage standards.
Whistleblower and Unlawful Retaliation Defense
New York provides some of the strongest anti-retaliation protections in the nation. The firm defends workers who speak out against misconduct, protecting them when employers respond with sudden negative reviews, demotions, disciplinary actions, or retaliatory terminations.
Pregnancy and Gender Discrimination
Serving as skilled workplace discrimination lawyers, the practice challenges discriminatory hiring, denied promotions, and wrongful firings tied to pregnancy, childbirth, or caregiving responsibilities, ensuring working mothers receive full statutory accommodations.
Age Discrimination in Employment
Employers frequently push out experienced older workers under the guise of corporate restructuring. The firm leverages the Age Discrimination in Employment Act and state law to expose pretextual layoffs and recover lost wages and damages for older professionals.
Wrongful Termination and Severance Negotiations
When an illegal firing occurs, seasoned wrongful termination lawyers can negotiate substantial financial packages. The firm reviews severance agreements, preserves legal claims, and secures exit terms that protect client reputations and career futures.
