You Have the Right to Take Care of Your Family
Regardless of what your employer may tell you, the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) gives workers the right to take time off from work to care for themselves or their loved ones. If your employer is denying you this right or retaliating against you for requesting medical leave from work, we can help you level the playing field and pursue your rights.
Discrimination
Employment discrimination can occur when an employer fires a member of a protected class or subjects that person to unfair treatment, harassment, intimidation, demotion or denial of a promotion. If you have been discriminated against owing to your age, gender, race, national origin, religion, disability, marital status or HIV status, discuss your legal options with one of our firm's experienced employment lawyers.
Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment in the workplace is flatly illegal under both federal and Florida state law. If you have been pressured for sexual favors or subjected to inappropriate language or touching, don't put up with it. We can help.
Wrongful Termination & Retaliation
If you have been wrongfully terminated or retaliated against for standing up for your rights, we will fight aggressively to achieve justice and get you back to work.
Workers' Compensation
If you are injured due to your job, you have a right to workers' compensation. Employees are routinely injured in a number of ways that leave them unable to continue to work, including being incapacitated by slips and falls, repetitive stress injuries, broken bones, burns, back pain and other injuries. Our attorneys command extensive experience helping inured people with workers' compensation claims.
Overtime
If you work more than 40 hours a week, you may be entitled to overtime. The law in this area can be complex, though, and it is far from being uniformly understood by workers and employers. Our attorneys can help you collect unpaid overtime that you are owed.Disability Benefits
If you have been declared disabled by a qualified physician and applied for private disability benefits and were denied, we may be able to help.
Personal Injury
If you have been injured due to the negligence of others, you have a right to seek fair and full compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering. We provide injury victims with an aggressive pursuit of their rights and never settle for an outcome that is not in their best interest.
