Championing Worker Rights Across Cincinnati and Southwestern Ohio
The workplace should be a professional environment grounded in equity, mutual respect, and adherence to labor statutes. Regrettably, corporate employers frequently breach state and federal employment laws, subjecting hard-working employees to hostility, retaliation, or financial exploitation. The Friedmann Firm LLC is dedicated exclusively to representing employees and executives, leveling the playing field against powerful companies and their defense counsel. From its Cincinnati office at 201 East 5th Street, Suite 1900-1188, the firm delivers aggressive litigation and thoughtful counsel to individuals across Hamilton County and throughout Ohio.
Founded in 2012 by esteemed litigators Peter Friedmann and Rachel Sabo Friedmann, The Friedmann Firm focuses its practice solely on labor and employment disputes. By dedicating 100 percent of their efforts to employment litigation, the firm's attorneys possess nuanced knowledge of evolving court precedents, administrative agency procedures, and trial tactics. When workers find a lawyer who exclusively handles employee claims, they gain the strategic edge needed to confront multi-million dollar corporations and demand accountability.
Core Employment and Labor Practice Areas
Employment law encompasses diverse federal and Ohio statutes, including Title VII, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, and the Family and Medical Leave Act. The Friedmann Firm advocates across comprehensive practice areas:
- Workplace Discrimination Claims: Dedicated advocacy from seasoned workplace discrimination lawyers holding employers accountable for unlawful bias based on race, sex, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age, pregnancy, religion, or military service.
- Wrongful Termination and Retaliation: Assertive litigation led by wrongful termination lawyers when workers are illegally fired for reporting safety hazards, requesting reasonable medical accommodations, or blowing the whistle on illegal corporate practices.
- Sexual Harassment and Hostile Work Environments: Decisive action from experienced harassment lawyers shielding employees from unwanted sexual advances, quid pro quo coercion, verbal abuse, and toxic workplace cultures.
- Wage and Hour Violations: Vigorous enforcement by knowledgeable wage and hour lawyers tackling unpaid overtime, minimum wage violations, off-the-clock labor, improper tip pooling, and misclassification of employees as exempt or independent contractors.
- FMLA Interference and Retaliation: Protecting the rights of workers who take protected leave for medical recovery, childbirth, or caring for ill family members without facing demotions or discharge.
- Executive Employment and Severance Agreements: Thorough contract review, non-compete counseling, and executive severance package negotiations to ensure executives preserve their reputations and financial entitlements.
