SOUTH HIGHPOINT EMPLOYMENT LAW FIRM: OUR AREAS OF EXPERIENCE
When you are having issues with your employer, you want the assistance of legal professionals who are well-versed in all areas of employment law. Our team is committed to protecting employees in South Highpoint and can help you address all your legal concerns from the start of your claim to the resolution and settlement.
Some of the types of cases we can help you with are:
- Wrongful termination
- Wage and hour claims
- Whistleblower claims
- Family Medical Leave Act claims
- Discrimination based on gender, age, race, ability
- Sexual Harassment Claims
- ADA Claims
- Employment Agreement Claims
WRONGFUL TERMINATION
Suppose you have been let go illegally, meaning without cause. In that case, our wrongful termination lawyer can investigate your case and, if appropriate, help you to be reinstated and compensated for lost wages and damages. It is not okay for an employer to terminate you without just cause. We will investigate every aspect of your case to ensure your rights are upheld by your employer and the law.
WAGE AND HOUR CLAIMS
The Fair Labor Standards Act states that employers are responsible for paying minimum wage to all employees. Additionally, overtime must be paid to non-exempt employees for any hours above and beyond a 40-hour workweek. Unfortunately, not all employers adhere to this, with many overlooking wages that should have been paid or refusing to offer overtime. Our overtime pay attorneys can help you get the compensation you deserve.
WHISTLEBLOWER CLAIMS IN SOUTH HIGHPOINT
A whistleblower claim is a formal complaint that describes or exposes misconduct by an organization. While being a whistleblower in the past has come with some negative connotations, it is essential to understand that it is everyone’s responsibility to ensure a safe working environment. That is why whistleblower actions should be applauded and not punished.
If you have faced retaliation from an employer for reporting unsafe working conditions or unlawful treatment of their employees, our attorneys can help. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) protects employees who report illegal behavior. We believe everyone has the right to safe and fair working conditions without fear of being retaliated against, and we will help protect your liberties.
FMLA CLAIMS
It is not uncommon for expectant and new mothers to be discriminated against in the workplace. Often, people with families are mistreated for taking time off to care for themselves or their families. The Family Medical Leave Act guarantees up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave per year. Employees can use this leave for anything, including pregnancy, a severe medical condition, or caring for a family member with a serious illness. It protects all individuals who are forced to take time off work due to their own medical issues or those of close family members. If you have been denied the benefits of this act or were mistreated while pregnant, you do have recourse.
Our employment lawyer in South Highpoint can help you receive back pay, front pay, and compensation for your damages. And, if you have been let go, we can help you to be reinstated to your position.
DISCRIMINATION
Discrimination in any form is never acceptable, yet some of the most frequent issues in the workplace are discrimination-based. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Civil Rights Act of 1991 outlaws unequal treatment based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Unfortunately, the existence of these laws does not always mean that employers will follow them, and violations take place more often than you might imagine. If you feel that you have been discriminated against, we can help you fight for your rights.
SEXUAL HARASSMENT IN YOUR SOUTH HIGHPOINT WORKPLACE
Title VII also deals with sexual harassment. Our team addresses sexual harassment claims with the perfect combination of sensitivity and outrage. We listen sympathetically to our client’s experiences and address them aggressively. Sexual harassment, in any form, is unacceptable, and we believe you have the right to feel safe in the workplace.
AGE DISCRIMINATION IN SOUTH HIGHPOINT
Feldman Legal Group is well-versed in the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). This law makes it illegal to treat employees differently based on their age, and it specifically applies to those over the age of 40. If your job or salary has been impacted because of your age, we can help.
SUPPORTING THOSE WITH DISABILITIES
The Americans with Disabilities Act protects a vital segment of our population. A disability must not be why an organization refuses to hire or accommodate you. If you are disabled and believe your employer terminated your employment because of it, we are here to help.
ENFORCING SOUTH HIGHPOINT EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
Sometimes, employees are asked to sign agreements as a condition of employment. These documents can include promises not to work for competitors, severance terms, and more. Both parties are held to the agreement’s language when a contract is agreed upon. If you feel your employer is not upholding the deal, we can help.
