Protecting Employee Rights with Diligent & Comprehensive Legal Guidance

Filing an employment law violation claim can be a daunting task, fraught with complexities and legal intricacies. It requires an employee to meticulously document instances of perceived violations, grapple with the challenge of gathering concrete proof, and often confront a convoluted legal system. 

This process can be overwhelming, and any missteps can potentially undermine the validity of the claim. It’s in these challenging circumstances that our team can provide support and legal guidance.

We have experience tackling common employment law issues, including:

  • Wrongful Termination Cases: Representing employees unjustly dismissed from their jobs, possibly due to discrimination or retaliation.
  • Discrimination Claims: Representing employees who have been treated unfairly due to their race, gender, age, disability, or other protected characteristics.
  • Harassment Cases: Handling claims involving workplace harassment, including sexual harassment and bullying.
  • Wage & Hour Disputes: Assisting employees in cases where employers have failed to pay proper wages, overtime, or have misclassified workers.
  • Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) Violations: Representing employees whose rights under the FMLA have been violated.
  • Retaliation & Whistleblower Claims: Advocating for individuals who have faced retaliation for reporting illegal activities or unsafe conditions at work.
  • Employment Contract Disputes: Assisting in cases where employment contracts or agreements have been breached by the employer. 

An employment law attorney can offer vital support in navigating through your workplace claim, no matter its nature. With extensive knowledge of federal and state employment laws, our team at Winebrake & Santillo can help identify unlawful practices and construct a strong case. We can assist in collecting and organizing evidence, filing all necessary paperwork, and negotiating settlements. Additionally, if your case proceeds to litigation, you can rely on our experience to represent your best interests in court. 

Whether you are facing discrimination, wrongful termination, wage issues, or retaliation, our Philadelphia employment law lawyers strive to ensure your rights are protected and that you’re adequately compensated for any damages suffered.
