As an employee, you have many rights that are protected under the various employment laws; however, it's not uncommon for employees to face unlawful discrimination in the workplace. Whether such discrimination stems from one's age, or disability, or their sexual orientation, any such discrimination may entitle you to certain legal remedies. Other such issues that the firm regularly handles involve wrongful terminations, unlawful retaliation, and common overtime violations.

The firm handles cases in St. Louis and the neighboring communities of Belleville, Alton, Collinsville, and Edwardsville, Illinois.

Perhaps you are still employed and are witnessing illegal activity and fear that whistle blowing will result in retaliation. Maybe you are still employed but are being deprived of the legally required pay, such as minimum wage or overtime. Or, maybe you have entered into a written contract with your employer and your employer has breached the agreement and without concern to your rights. In any employment dispute, the attorneys at the firm can help you address your employment law issue and inform you of your rights and responsibilities under the law.
