Employment law is a dynamic, complex practice that varies from state to state and city to city. Employers can use every technicality to fight employees' just claims. Your lawyers need a thorough understanding of all of those technicalities.
Selected cases below illustrate the variety of defenses asserted against employment claimants and how we have used the litigation process to advance the law in the direction of employee rights.
We have also devised precedent-setting settlements which not only put money in our clients' pockets but changed their workplaces for the better.
Why Our Firm?
Unlike many lawyers who will only talk to you if you have lost your job, Jonathan will work with you to negotiate an accommodation of your disability or to rebut an unfair performance review.
