Our Clients

People need an employment attorney to help resolve problems in the workplace more often than is commonly realized. Our clients include people who have lost their jobs because of their age, sales representatives who have not received promised commissions, and executives who were fired to save money. These diverse individuals share one thing in common: their employers violated their rights.

How We Help

We focus on developing the most cost-effective solution for your specific problem. That solution may involve a quick consultation, intervention by our law firm with the employer, or a wide variety of litigation services. We'll do whatever is necessary to resolve the situation in the most cost-effective way possible. Our law firm helps clients in matters related to:

Discrimination, Including Age, Race, and Sex | Sexual Harassment | Overtime and FMLA | Executive Compensation | Employee Benefits | General Compensation | Retaliation | ERISA | Wrongful Termination


Fee Structure

Some people fail to consult a lawyer because they believe it's too expensive. That's why we have developed a number of fee arrangements tailored to your particular needs. Clients may pay an hourly fee, we may charge a percentage based on the amount of money we recover, or we may do a combination of both. If you're thinking of calling our firm, please understand that we will always try the least expensive approach first. We are always conservative with your money. If you believe you are experiencing employment discrimination, are not getting the correct amount of compensation, or have been wrongfully terminated, contact our Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, law firm right away.
