Dedicated Employment Law Advocates for Ohio Workers

When workplace rights are violated, employees often face financial stress and professional uncertainty. Founded in 2015 by attorneys Bradley L. Gibson and Angela J. Gibson, Gibson Law, LLC provides focused legal advocacy in employment and labor law across Cincinnati, Ohio, and surrounding areas. What sets Gibson Law apart is the background of its partners: both Brad and Angela previously defended corporate employers at large defense firms. Having seen corporate defense strategies from the inside, they know exactly how companies evaluate risk and fight claims. If you need to hire an employment attorney who can anticipate defense tactics, Gibson Law provides aggressive, knowledgeable representation to protect your career and financial well-being.

Workplace Harassment and Discrimination Representation

Federal and Ohio laws protect employees from unlawful bias and hostile working conditions. When workers need to find a lawyer to challenge unfair treatment, Gibson Law delivers responsive advocacy across multiple areas:

• Workplace discrimination: Holding employers accountable for adverse actions based on race, sex, age, disability, pregnancy, religion, or national origin.
• Workplace harassment: Taking swift legal action against sexual harassment, offensive conduct, and hostile work environments.
• Retaliation claims: Protecting workers penalized for whistleblowing, asserting civil rights, or filing formal grievances.
• Medical leave disputes: Enforcing rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act when employers deny medical leave or penalize medical absences.

Wrongful Termination and Severance Negotiations

While Ohio recognizes at-will employment, terminating an employee for discriminatory reasons or in retaliation for lawful actions constitutes wrongful termination. Gibson Law thoroughly investigates wrongful discharge claims to demand rightful compensation. In addition, professionals facing job loss regularly consult an attorney at the firm to evaluate proposed severance agreements. The firm negotiates improved financial packages while reviewing restrictive non-compete agreements and non-solicitation clauses to ensure workers can pursue future employment without undue restraint.

Wage and Hour Law Claims and Overtime Violations

Under the Fair Labor Standards Act and Ohio minimum wage statutes, workers must be paid accurately for every hour worked. Gibson Law pursues back wages for employees affected by compensation violations, including:

• Unpaid overtime: Recovering time-and-a-half compensation for non-exempt employees denied overtime pay.
• Employee misclassification: Challenging unlawful independent contractor classifications that deprive workers of basic protections.
• Off-the-clock work: Seeking compensation for mandatory pre-shift meetings, post-shift duties, and unlawful rounding of hours.
