Labor and Employment Litigation
Employers are required by law to treat their employees fairly and provide a workplace that is free from discrimination of all forms. Unfortunately, many employers engage in unethical and discriminatory labor practices that infringe on workers’ rights. If you have been subject to discrimination, unfair practices, or illegal treatment in the workplace, DiCello Levitt can help.
Our attorneys represent people harmed by the discriminatory and illegal actions of their employers. We investigate, litigate, and expose systemic workplace abuses, hold companies responsible, and ensure fair practices in recruitment, hiring, promotion, and pay. We fight for employees who experience discrimination in the workplace based on race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religion. We assist women who are denied pay equal to their male peers; pregnant women who are terminated or passed over for promotions; and workers subjected to hostile workplaces, sexual harassment, and disparate treatment. And we protect whistleblowers who help bring illegal practices to light for the benefit of those people harmed by this conduct.
DiCello Levitt litigates matters in which companies violate their employees’ rights through such practices as misclassification of independent contractors, unsafe working conditions, and failure to pay minimum wages or adequate overtime or to provide legally mandated break times. Our extensive experience enables us to successfully challenge arbitration agreements, noncompete agreements, and other employment contracts and to enforce workers’ rights under collective bargaining agreements.
We understand the risks that workers face when they speak out against their employers, and we know how to safeguard against retaliation. Not only do we protect employees’ positions and recover compensation for their losses, but we also fight to change the policies and practices that allowed labor abuses to take place while making sure similar behavior does not occur in the future.
