We can help.

With more than 75 years of combined legal experience, we assist clients seeking justice and fair compensation for harm caused by others. We provide tenacious advocacy on behalf of clients who have suffered physical and emotional injury because of someone else's negligence.
Each lawyer at the firm works to uphold the laws and community safety rules that exist for everyone’s protection. People who break the law or violate safety rules and regulations must be held accountable for causing physical or emotional harm to others.
We also seek justice against companies engaged in illegal workplace conduct. We strive to hold those companies responsible for causing harm to employees and to deter future misconduct. We also represent clients in severance agreement, non-compete agreements, and employment contract negotiations.

CLASS ACTIONS

CLASS ACTIONS

Employers, landlords, and large corporations often feel that they can treat employees and consumers illegally because the money involved is too small to be take a case to court.  They are wrong.

When these people or companies inflict the same wrong on dozens of people or more, we seek class action status so that the combined weight of many plaintiffs can be used to call attention to the illegal practice, and so that fair compensation can be obtained for all class members.

WRONGFUL TERMINATION

WRONGFUL TERMINATION

Absent a contract or collective bargaining agreement, employers are free to terminate at-will employees for any reason or no reason at all – except that they cannot fire an employee on the basis of age, gender, disability (including pregnancy), race, sexual orientation, religion, or nationality.

We fight for clients who are wrongly terminated based upon an illegal reason.

If you’ve been wrongly terminated, call us and learn how we can help.

SEXUAL HARASSMENT

We have long represented the victims of workplace sexual harassment. We seek justice and fair compensation, and help give back power to sexual harassment victims. We also want to send a message to employers that sexual harassment or retaliation in any form will not be tolerated.

We accept many sexual harassment cases on a contingency fee basis.  Please call us or click the link below to find out more about how we can help.

WAGE & HOUR VIOLATIONS

WAGE & HOUR VIOLATIONS

State and federal laws have strict requirements concerning compensation. Some companies, however, violate these laws by not properly compensating employees, such as not paying them to drive to a location as part of their job, wrongfully deducting money from their paychecks, failing to pay overtime, or illegally withholding commissions.

As an employment law firm, we represent workers on a contingency fee basis when employers fail to follow wage and hour laws.  Call us to learn how we can help.

We help victims of sexual abuse and sexual assault, including those who have been abused by perpetrators in educational, religious, and other organizations. [We also represent those abused in foster care as the result of CPS negligence.] We have obtained successful outcomes in a number of cases against family members, relatives, youth organizations, religious institutions, and local municipalities.

We help empower victims to take back their lives by holding perpetrators responsible, as well as those organizations that permit sexual abuse and assault to occur.
