Experienced, Aggressive Employment Law Representation Employment law is complex and ever changing. Clients confronted with difficult employment law matters will find it extremely beneficial to work with attorneys who are knowledgeable in the practice of employment law. At Archer, Byington, Glennon & Levine, we will use every legal means available to resolve your case. We provide experienced legal representation and counsel in all aspects of employment law. We will work one-on-one with you to navigate this complex area of the law and help you determine where you stand under the various federal and state employment laws. Early resolution through mediation or ADR (alternative dispute resolution) is often advantageous. However, in cases where litigation is your best alternative, we have the aggressive litigation experience needed to protect your interests and achieve your objectives.
Employee Rights Counseling
The first step is a consultation, which provides you with the opportunity to sit down with us to discuss your unique circumstances so that we may evaluate your employment situation in detail and advise you as to whether your rights have been violated. Our years of experience as employment lawyers and knowledge of both state and federal employment laws -- including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act; the Americans with Disabilities Act; the Family and Medical Leave Act; the Fair Labor Standards Act, as well as state laws governing discrimination, wage and hour, employment contracts, wrongful termination, and non-compete agreements -- provides us with the ability to evaluate your case and advise you as to an appropriate course of action.
Severance and Separation Package Negotiations
In appropriate cases, we attain fair resolutions by negotiating enhanced severance packages, which may provide sufficient financial cushions to allow clients to transition to their next jobs. These negotiations address related issues that arise in severance package negotiations, including relief from non-compete agreements, extending medical benefits, and stock options. In the event our efforts to negotiate a reasonable severance package are not successful, the next step to consider is litigation.
Employment Discrimination and Wrongful Discharge Litigation
Some examples of unfair treatment in the workplace and wrongful employment practices that may be appropriate for litigation include:
- Racial discrimination, ethnic discrimination, or religious discrimination;
- Age discrimination or discrimination due to a disability or pregnancy;
- Discrimination due to sexual orientation;
- Sexual harassment or racial harassment;
- Wrongful or illegal employment practices, including overtime pay violations;
- Hostile work environment and workplace retaliation; and
- Wrongful termination.
