Whether you are facing sexual harassment, employment discrimination, or wrongful termination, you may have the right to file a claim. Our law firm represents employees against employers who violate these protections, ensuring your rights are defended in the workplace.
About Our Employment Law Attorneys
Our attorneys represent employees and executives nationwide from all industries and professions in employment law matters. We collaborate with clients to find workable and cost-sensitive solutions to contract disputes, severance negotiations, general employment conflicts, and unpaid wages.

We empower employees at all levels to embrace career challenges while ensuring their rights are not violated. With extensive knowledge of Connecticut employment law, our team provides legal representation that protects clients in virtually every aspect of workplace disputes.
Wrongful Termination and Retaliation
Wrongful termination, also called wrongful discharge, occurs when an employer violates state or federal law in firing an employee. This includes retaliation against employees who report discrimination or harassment. Our lawyers fight on behalf of victims to hold companies accountable and recover fair compensation.
We also represent hourly workers and salaried employees who have been unfairly treated, retaliated against, or terminated in violation of contract provisions. Every client deserves informed counsel and aggressive representation when facing an employer’s misconduct.
Sexual Harassment and Hostile Workplace Claims
Sexual harassment and hostile work environments remain major problems in Connecticut workplaces. Employees have the right to work free of harassment and intimidation. If you are a victim, our attorneys can guide you through the process of filing a complaint, negotiating with companies, or pursuing litigation in state court or federal court.
Our law firm is proud to protect employees in Hartford, Fairfield, and throughout the state from workplace harassment and retaliation.
Unpaid Wages and Breach of Contract
Employees often contact us after facing unpaid wages, breach of contract, or other compensation violations. Our attorneys carefully review employment contracts, severance agreements, and wage claims to ensure employers meet their obligations. When companies fail to pay employees, we fight to recover every dollar owed.

We represent employees before judges and juries, using informed strategies and aggressive representation to achieve justice.
