We Represent Employees And Professionals In The Following Areas:
Worker’s Compensation
We represent employees (including Police Officers and other First Responders) injured on the job including wage replacement, loss compensation, medical expense reimbursement, and benefits. We fight hard to ensure that you receive all worker’s compensation benefits that you are entitled to including:
- Wages while off work
- Approval for medical treatment
- Payment for medical treatment, and
- Payment for future permanent disability.
Discrimination Claims
We handle workplace discrimination claims. In Maryland it is illegal for employers to discriminate on the basis of race, sex, , color, ancestry or national origin, age, religion, marital status, sexual orientation, genetic identity, gender identity, disability, or genetic information.
Sexual Harassment
We handle claims of unlawful harassment of a person (an applicant or employee) because of that person’s sex.
Disability Discrimination
We represent disabled employees in the workplace.
Most claims are initiated by filing a charge with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Some cities and counties in Maryland also have their own local anti-discrimination ordinances and agencies that process claims under local ordinances. However, claimants must act quickly as there are very strict filing deadlines (6 months in most cases).
Whistleblower Protection
We handle claims of retaliation for reporting illegal workplace activity.
Wrongful Termination
We handle claims of wrongful termination from employment for employees based on contract, statutory law, and public policy in the private and public sectors.
