Wrongful Termination and Unlawful Workplace Retaliation

Although Ohio is an employment-at-will state, corporations cannot terminate workers in violation of federal civil rights laws or public policy. Practicing as dedicated wrongful termination lawyers and employment and labor lawyers, the firm defends workers who have been discharged unlawfully. Key practice areas include:

• Advocating for whistleblowers fired after reporting illegal corporate conduct or safety hazards.
• Protecting employees terminated for exercising protected medical leave rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act.
• Challenging retaliatory discharges that follow workplace injury workers compensation filings.
• Filing administrative complaints with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and Ohio Civil Rights Commission.

Employees who hire an attorney with extensive trial experience gain a strategic advantage against corporate defense teams.

Discrimination and Hostile Workplace Harassment

Every employee deserves to perform their job free from bigotry, bias, and abuse. Serving as passionate workplace discrimination lawyers and harassment lawyers, the firm holds employers accountable for unlawful bias. The team litigates claims involving race, gender, age, disability, pregnancy, religion, and sexual orientation discrimination, as well as pervasive hostile work environment harassment.

Wage and Hour Violations and Executive Contracts

Denying earned compensation is a direct violation of federal and state law. Operating as skilled wage and hour lawyers and contract lawyers, the firm recovers unpaid overtime, combats unlawful employee misclassification, and remedies off-the-clock work demands under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Additionally, they negotiate executive severance agreements and resolve restrictive non-compete covenants.

Contingency Business Litigation and Catastrophic Injuries

Beyond labor claims, the practice serves as formidable business litigation lawyers, resolving partnership breakups, breach of contract actions, and commercial disputes under contingency arrangements. Furthermore, acting as tenacious accident and injury lawyers and wrongful death lawyers, the firm represents victims of catastrophic truck collisions and fatal negligence, including a landmark twenty-five-million-dollar wrongful death verdict.
