About Me:
In the ever-changing arena of employment law, people in business have needs, concerns and questions. We meet our clients' needs, address their concerns and answer their questions. Whether our clients seek to prevent disputes through the development and implementation of pro-active policies and procedures, have grown to a size now requiring statutory compliance, seek on-site training of new or experienced managers, or are suddenly faced with federal or state litigation, we offer expert counsel, life experience, practical advice and staunch advocacy.
If you are a victim of discrimination in the workplace, you are not alone. You are protected from discrimination and bias based on your age, race, gender, religion, national origin, familial status, sexual orientation, pregnancy, gender identity, veteran status, and genetic predisposition by federal, state and county laws. You need not endure inappropriate jokes, touching or bias against you due to your sex, race, religion or sexual orientation. You do not have to accept overt or subtle discrimination in employment. Whether you are gay, disabled, over the age of 40 or pregnant, you do not have to endure a hostile work environment because of your identity, age or medical condition.
