Whether you have questions regarding how to negotiate the terms of employment before you begin work, current difficulties at work, or what to do before or after the involuntary termination of employment, I can help you resolve your questions.
My law practice involves federal litigation in the Eastern District of New York, Southern District of New York, Northern District of New York, and the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York, and litigation in all New York State courts. My diverse practice enables me to appear before numerous investigative bodies including the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC"), the New York State Division of Human Rights ("NYSDHR"), the New York City Commission on Human Rights ("NYCCHR"), and the New York State Department of Labor ("NYSDOL"), among others.
The difficulties you may be experiencing at work can range from discrimination based on your race/color, sex, national origin, and religion to discrimination based on pregnancy or a disability. You may be experiencing unequal treatment regarding your pay, age, medical leave, or you may be experiencing sexual harassment. Perhaps you are entitled to overtime pay and your employer is withholding overtime wages. Additionally, both federal and New York State and New York City laws provide specific protection for military reservists from discrimination in the workplace.
Just as everybody's job is different, so too is the approach to resolving employment disputes. Some employers may wish to quietly settle the dispute while others may wish to fight you "tooth and nail." If you wish to quietly settle your dispute I can help, but if it's a fight your employer wants then I can, and I will, respond in kind on your behalf.
Unequal or unfair treatment and discrimination takes many forms, and you should choose an experienced attorney in these areas to assist you. I have that experience and want to help you now. Regardless of the strengths or weaknesses of your case I will give you an honest, no-nonsense assessment, and I will provide you with a straightforward plan of attack on how to proceed.
Please call (516) 466-2033 for a no-cost consultation to find out if I can help you.
