Together, you will get the best settlement or jury verdict possible.
As employment lawyers, we recognize the importance of understanding the local labor and legal markets to successfully represent our clients. We have extensive legal experience in Pennsylvania – on both sides of the state.
Treated unfairly or let go because of your age? We stand up for workers over 40 who’ve been passed over, harassed, or wrongfully terminated due to age-related bias.
If you’ve been denied reasonable accommodations, harassed, or fired due to a disability or medical condition, we’ll help you fight back under the ADA and state laws.
Were you punished for taking medical leave? Whether caring for a loved one or your own health, we help employees who were denied leave or retaliated against for using it.
From unequal pay to biased promotions or outright harassment, we fight for employees treated unfairly because of their gender or gender identity.
No one should feel unsafe or degraded at work. If you’ve endured sexual harassment, bullying, or a toxic environment, we’ll hold your employer accountable.
Whether it’s biased hiring practices, unfair discipline, or racially charged remarks, we take race-based discrimination seriously and pursue justice with urgency.
Unpaid overtime? Misclassified as exempt? Denied breaks or wages? We help workers recover what they’ve rightfully earned under Pennsylvania and federal law.
If you were fired for reporting illegal behavior, exercising your rights, or based on a protected characteristic, we’ll evaluate your case and fight for justice.
As a law student at Cornell, founder, Attorney Andrew Lacy, made a promise to himself to help people. Yet he followed the majority of his classmates to work at a large international law firm.
Large law firms provide the best training ground for young employment lawyers. They take the smartest law students. They represent the biggest companies. And only large companies can afford to hire them.
After years of seeing plaintiffs go up against large companies, Attorney Lacy decided to leave corporate law behind and start his own law firm; this time representing the people, not corporations.
He renewed his promise to himself.
When we say we know what we are up against, we mean it. We worked behind enemy lines for years and have seen how the best employment attorneys handle cases. We’ve seen it all.
We take many cases on a contingency basis—so you don’t pay unless we win. Reach out and let’s see what’s possible for your situation.
Employers cannot fire you based on your membership in a protected class. A protected class is a group of employees that share common characteristics (race, gender, sex, national origin, etc.).
If your company discriminated against you, we can help. A discrimination attorney can start a lawsuit on your behalf. And help you recover damages.
Retaliation occurs normally after you report illegal workplace behavior. Or you sought leave or workers’ compensation. Your employer might fire you after you “blow the whistle.” This is illegal. We are equipped to handle these claims in Pennsylvania.
Employers cannot turn a blind eye to a hostile work environment created under their noses. Harassment can come in many different types, such as race, disability, and age.
But the most common form is sexual harassment.
Sexual harassment occurs when the company turns a blind eye to unwelcome sexual advances, sexually-charged remarks, and unwanted touching from its employees.
Our employment lawyers provide our clients with the legal advice they need to stop the harassment.
You have rights at work. If you need leave to care for yourself or a sick loved one, your employer must honor your rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act.
If you have a disability and need a reasonable accommodation, your company must give you one.
We will advise you on all of your workplace rights. We will not let your company skirt the law. If you believe you have a case; remember, our consultations are always free.
Employment in the United States is at will. This means that your employer can fire you for any non-illegal reasons.
An illegal reason would be one that violates the various federal, state, and local employment laws. Our employment lawyers can help you navigate these laws.
Even if your employer fired you, you still have rights. Here’s what employers cannot do.
A labor and employment attorney represents employees when employment issues arise under federal, state, and local employment law. Pennsylvania employment lawyers are at the forefront of defending employee rights, focusing on discrimination and harassment claims in the workplace.
Employment lawyers possess mastery over a multitude of different types of employment law, including: wrongful termination; the Family and Medical Leave Act; employment discrimination; sexual harassment; the Americans with Disabilities Act; employment contracts/employment agreements; and wage law.
