What Questions Should I Ask an Employment Lawyer?
Here are some questions that you should ask. How long will my case take? Am I better off settling early? Will you drop my case if we do not settle after the EEOC process? Have you handled this type of case before? How much of your practice is devoted to employment law?
How do I Recover My Lost Wages?
There are a lot of different practice areas for employment related disputes. Although wage loss might be considered labor law, we handle these types of issues. The Fair Labor Standards Act protects you from your employer stealing your wages. Also, like state anti discrimination laws, PA has anti-wage theft laws that protect you. Wage and hour claims comprise a good portion of the legal issues that we see. Let us help you recover your unpaid wages.
What Other Types of Employment Law Claims Do You Handle?
Employment law is much more than workplace discrimination. You might need legal counsel to help with employment agreements, contract negotiations, or a severance agreement review. There is also law that applies specifically to public sector employees. New Jersey employment laws differ from Philadelphia employment laws. And there are aspects of business law with an employment element as well. Perhaps you saw some illegal activity at work, then you can bring whistleblower claims. Did you suffer a personal injury at work? Then you have a workers compensation claim. Maybe your employer is accusing you of breaching a non-compete agreement or taking trade secrets with you to a new company. You will definitely need us in this case. There are so many different aspects of employment law. Give us a call and find out.
