The Lacy Employment Law Firm represents employees throughout Philadelphia in a wide range of workplace disputes. Whether you are facing workplace discrimination, harassment, retaliation, unpaid wages, wrongful termination, or employment contract issues, our attorneys provide strategic legal guidance tailored to your situation. Explore our primary Philadelphia employment law practice areas below to learn more about your rights and the legal services we offer.
Employees have the right to work free from discrimination based on age, race, pregnancy, disability, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, ethnicity, and other protected characteristics. Our Philadelphia Workplace Discrimination Lawyers help employees protect their rights under federal, Pennsylvania, and local employment laws.
Workplace harassment can create a hostile work environment and interfere with your ability to perform your job. We represent employees facing workplace harassment, sexual harassment, and other unlawful conduct in the workplace.
Employers cannot legally retaliate against employees for reporting unlawful workplace conduct, participating in investigations, requesting protected leave, or exercising other legal rights. We help employees pursue retaliation claims and protect their workplace rights.
Employees are entitled to receive the wages they have earned, including minimum wage, overtime pay, commissions, and other compensation required by law. Our Philadelphia Wage & Hour Lawyers help employees recover unpaid wages and hold employers accountable for wage violations.
Employment agreements can affect your compensation, restrictive covenants, severance rights, and future career opportunities. We help employees review, negotiate, and resolve disputes involving employment contracts and related workplace agreements.
Although Pennsylvania is generally an at-will employment state, employers cannot terminate employees for unlawful reasons such as discrimination, retaliation, or violations of public policy. Our attorneys help employees evaluate wrongful termination claims and pursue appropriate legal remedies.
In addition to our primary practice areas, we also represent employees in matters involving:
Our practice focuses on the discrimination that often hides behind “corporate restructuring,” “cultural fit,” and “performance concerns.” We particularly specialize in age discrimination cases—representing experienced professionals who are sidelined, pushed out, or passed over despite their proven track record.
We also represent executives and senior professionals facing:
Having represented professionals earning $200,000+ across industries, we understand the unique dynamics of executive-level employment law. We know how companies use separation agreements, non-disparagement clauses, and legal teams to protect themselves—not you.
Before founding this practice, I worked at Reed Smith—one of the largest corporate defense firms in the country. I know how companies respond to discrimination claims because I’ve seen their playbook from the inside. I understand how they minimize exposure, how they frame narratives, and how they use their resources to protect themselves. Now I use that knowledge to protect you.
You’re not just an employee. You’re a strategic asset who built relationships, drove revenue, and delivered results. When a company violates your rights, the stakes aren’t just financial—they’re professional, reputational, and personal.

We specialize in age discrimination. If you’re over 40 and sensing that your experience has become a liability rather than an asset, we’ve seen it before—and we know how to prove it.
We’re strategic, not reactive. Employment law at the executive level requires understanding employment agreements, equity compensation, non-competes, and reputation management. We consider all of it.
We handle active situations. Whether you’re still employed and facing ongoing discrimination, considering blowing the whistle, or navigating a separation, we provide guidance for where you are right now—not just after you’ve been terminated.
Your Next Move Matters—Especially at Your Level
If you’re an established professional sensing that something is shifting—being sidelined, excluded, or targeted after years of strong performance—you’re right to trust that instinct. Understanding your rights now is the key to protecting your career, your compensation, and your reputation.
We help executives and experienced professionals navigate:
Sexual harassment by peers and leadership
Discriminatory restructuring that pushes out older workers
Retaliation after reporting harassment or bias
Sudden performance attacks used as cover for discrimination
