We represent employees who have been discriminated against, harassed, or retaliated against in the workplace. Federal civil rights laws protect employees from discrimination on the basis of race, sex, national origin, religion, age, disability, and, most recently, LGBTQ status. State and local laws may cover additional types of discrimination. If you have experienced discrimination, or if you have been retaliated against after complaining of discrimination, please contact us.
Wage theft is a problem that many American workers face. We represent employees who were not paid for all the hours they worked or who were denied overtime when they worked more than 40 hours per week. If you think you were misclassified as "exempt" from overtime, or if you believe you were not paid all of your wages for another reason, please contact us.
We represent people who report corporate wrongdoing. We help whistleblowers who are retaliated against, and we bring qui tam cases (lawsuits under the False Claims Act) to recover money for the federal, state, and local governments that are defrauded by corporations. Please contact us if you are a whistleblower seeking representation.
We represent consumers in individual and class actions. Contact us if you have been misled or defrauded, or if you have purchased a faulty product.
When appropriate, we bring class actions, which allow us to represent a group of people who were treated the same way. Class actions can be effective in employment cases, wage and hour cases, consumer fraud cases, and other types of litigation. If you think you might have experienced an injury that affects a group of people, please contact us.
We don't shy away from difficult cases. In fact, those are our favorites. If you have a complex employment or other matter that you are looking to resolve, please contact us.
