Discrimination
Discrimination refers to any unfair treatment of individuals based on their gender, age, race, religion, or other personal characteristics. Discrimination in the workplace can take various forms, including hiring bias, unequal pay, promotion denial, and harassment.
At Criscione Ravala, LLP, our experienced employment discrimination lawyers are dedicated to protecting your rights and ensuring that you are not subjected to discrimination. We work tirelessly to prevent discrimination and provide legal representation to individuals who have been victims of discrimination.
EEOC
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is responsible for enforcing federal laws that prohibit discrimination against job applicants and employees based on their race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information.
The EEOC investigates complaints of discrimination and harassment filed by individuals and can take legal action against employers who violate these laws. The EEOC also provides guidance to employers and employees on how to prevent discrimination and promote equal employment opportunities.
Non-Competition
Non-competition refers to agreements between employers and employees that prohibit employees from performing similar work for a competitor after leaving their current employer. These agreements are often included in employment contracts and aim to protect the employer’s business interests.
At Criscione Ravala, LLP, our experienced employment lawyers can help you navigate non-competition agreements in NYC and Fort Lauderdale and protect your rights as an employee. We can also assist employers in drafting non-competition agreements that are legally enforceable and fair to employees.
Severance Agreements
Severance agreements are contracts between an employer and employee that outline the terms of separation. These agreements typically include provisions related to severance pay, continuation of benefits, and non-disclosure and non-disparagement clauses. They are designed to protect both parties and can be negotiated before or after termination.
Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment refers to unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature that creates a hostile or offensive work environment. It can take various forms, including verbal or physical advances, requests for sexual favors, or other sexual conduct. At Criscione Ravala, LLP, we take sexual harassment seriously, and our employment lawyers provide legal representation to individuals in NYC and Fort Lauderdale who have been victims of such misconduct.
Unpaid Wages
Unpaid wages refer to an employer’s failure to pay an employee’s full wages or salary, including overtime pay, commissions, bonuses, and other compensation. This can result from various reasons, including incorrect timekeeping, wage theft, or illegal pay deductions. Unpaid wages are a violation of employment law, and employees have the right to seek legal action against their employers. Our employment lawyers can help you with such complex matters.
Wage & Hour
Wage and hour laws govern the minimum wage, overtime pay, and other compensation-related regulations in the workplace. These laws ensure that employees receive fair compensation for their work and protect them from wage theft and exploitation. Employers must comply with these laws, or they risk legal action and penalties.
Wrongful Termination
Wrongful termination occurs when an employee is fired illegally, usually in violation of federal or state laws that prohibit discrimination or retaliation.
Common examples include discrimination based on race, gender, age, or disability and retaliation for whistleblowing or reporting workplace violations. Wrongful termination can result in legal action and damages for the employee. Our employment lawyers in NYC and Fort Lauderdale can help you deal with the intricacies of wrongful termination.
