Our firm handles employee pay issues involving unemployment benefits, wage and hour claims, Equal Pay Act claims, ERISA and severance packages. In cases involving wage and hour violations, you may be awarded triple damages if you are successful in showing your employer unjustly withheld wages from you.

Protect yourself from discrimination and harassment. Fight for your rights.
Under state and/or federal laws employers may not harass or discriminate against an employee based upon their race, religion, national origin, marital status, sexual orientation, because of the employee's pregnancy or disability, or because the employee is over the age of 40. It is also illegal to punish employees for complaining about such treatment.
