You Have Options If You Are Wrongfully Terminated, Discriminated Against Or Harassed

Businesses must ensure that their workplaces are free of harassment and discrimination against protected classes of workers.

Empower Yourself With The Answers To Common Employment Law Questions

Our firm keeps clients fully informed about the laws impacting their case. Here are answers to three common questions heard in our firm’s offices.

If Pennsylvania and New Jersey are “at-will” employment states, what qualifies as a wrongful termination?

While “at-will” rules allow employers to fire staff for many reasons, they cannot fire you for reasons that violate public policy or federal law. We hold employers accountable when they terminate workers based on discrimination, in retaliation for filing a claim, or for taking protected medical leave. Our attorneys use their combined 100 years of experience to identify when a firing crosses the line from a business choice to an illegal act.

What qualifies as workplace harassment or discrimination in New Jersey and Pennsylvania?

Workplace discrimination occurs when an employer treats you poorly because of protected traits like your race, age, religion or disability. Harassment is illegal when the conduct is sufficiently severe or pervasive to create a work environment that a reasonable person would consider intimidating, hostile or abusive. We focus our practice on protecting employees from these unfair actions and helping them seek the justice they deserve.

I know my employer is violating the law. How can I speak out without getting fired?

While federal laws like OSHA protect safety reporting, state protections for private-sector whistleblowers in Pennsylvania are limited to specific scenarios or public policy violations. If your employer fires or punishes you for speaking up, we can help you file a retaliation claim to recover your lost wages and damages. Our firm fights to shield honest employees from the consequences of their employer’s illegal behavior.
