Employment law attorneys represent you when you believe your employer has violated laws designed to protect employees. Call us to discuss your case. We represent workers in a number of different circumstances –

• Federal employment law violations (civil rights, discrimination, Family Leave Act and more)
• Federal employee legal claims, hearings and appeals (EEO, DOHA, MSPB and more)
• State employment law infractions (wrongful termination; wage and hour violations, severance and others)

You may be entitled to compensation. The outcome may be a more satisfactory resolution to your workplace issue. Call us if you have been fired or laid off and you think it was for unlawful reasons. Call if you believe you have been discriminated against.

• Employment law attorneys represent the worker in cases involving discrimination based on race, age, gender, disability, national origin and other factors. Schedule a free initial discussion of the facts of your case. We can outline your options for you if you feel you are the victim of job discrimination. Our firm has experience in handling EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) cases. Please be aware that you have a short period of time in which to file your claim; we are prepared to efficiently bring your claim to the appropriate EEO office. We represent state or private employees in EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) claims. We provide legal representation to employees of private employers.
• Employment law attorneys represent employees in unemployment disputes, wage and hour claims, severance and pension disputes, as well as other workplace issues, many of which are heard in state courts. Our goal is a proper, fair resolution of your case. In some cases, damages may be appropriate. We never promise an outcome of a case, but we do promise the personalized attention that can only come from a small, dedicated law firm such as ours.
• We represent state and federal employees before various hearing and claims boards. We handle appeals of these claims, and can enter your case at any point in its progress. We can take your appeals to the federal courts, and will act as your legal representative in Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) actions as well as DOHA (Defense Defense Office of Hearings and Appeals). Employment law attorneys can also represent Department of Defense employees; military personnel and United States Postal Service employees. Some federal employees will appeal their termination to the MSPB.

There are other issues that are best handled by employment law attorneys. These can include non-compete clauses and other areas of contracts. Your free initial consultation will determine if we believe we can be of legal service to you.

Employment law attorneys fight for the rights of the employee in state and federal courts and before administrative hearings.
