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.

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.
