Ridgefield ● White Plains Employment Law Attorney

Employees are guaranteed certain rights and protections within the workplace. Federal and state law prohibits discrimination, harassment, unfair labor practices, safety violations, and certain kinds of actions on the part of employers. When employers violate federal and state law, they're liable for their actions in a court of law. At the Rogers & Tartaro, LLP, our lawyers assert and protect the rights of employees in contract negotiations, discrimination and harassment lawsuits, and qui tam whistleblower cases. Our office is prepared to work with private investigators, forensic computer experts, handwriting analysts, and other professionals in recovering and analyzing evidence in your case. When necessary, we will involve the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), representing your interests in any discussions or interactions with them regarding your case.

If you have been the target of discrimination, harassment, or unfair labor practices, contact Rogers & Tartaro, LLP today. Our lawyers will evaluate your case and determine how best to proceed in demanding justice and compensation for the harm done to you.

Do I have a Case?

Companies that allow discrimination, harassment, or safety violations to occur in the workplace often exhibit a pattern of behavior that is difficult to hide. Our attorneys subpoena human resources records, look at hiring, firing, and promoting practices, gather emails and memos, and interview management and HR personnel. Even if a paper trail doesn't exist, inconsistencies between stated company policies and goals and actual results expose discriminatory and harassing behavior. As your attorney, we thoroughly investigate every aspect of a company's actions related to your case.
