Employment Discrimination
Employment law is one of the fastest growing areas of our firm. Several factors feed this trend — the current dynamics of employer/employee relationships, the broad protections afforded workers under New Jersey law, and the leadership of partner Edward H. Lee.
We can handle every type of employment discrimination:
- Unfair hiring, firing, or workplace treatment based on race, sex, age, religion, disability or national origin
- Sexual harassment by a supervisor or co-worker
- Failure to accommodate under the Americans with Disabilities Act
- Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) issues, such as pregnancy discrimination
- Wrongful termination of "whistleblowers"
- Claims under the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination, including discrimination on the basis of military service, marital status, sexual orientation, mental illness, or AIDS/HIV status
