We’re There When You Need Us Most
Our New York City employment law firm works on a contingency basis. That means we don’t get paid unless you get paid. We work this way because we believe that dignity and fairness in the workplace are important enough that no one should be frozen out of the legal system because they can’t afford an attorney. You can do our consultations with us either in person or via video conference, whichever works best for you.
If you need expert legal support, reach out to us today to schedule your free consultation and take the first step towards justice.
Serving NYC, Westchester County, and All of Connecticut
Below are some common issues where our experienced attorneys may be able to help you or a person you love:
Back Pay
Employees might be entitled to back pay if they have been underpaid or denied wages for work performed. Whether it's due to misclassification, unpaid overtime, or withheld wages, our attorneys can assess your situation, calculate the owed amount, and take proactive steps to try and secure your back pay through negotiations or litigation.
Minimum Wage
Minimum wage laws are designed to ensure fair compensation for all workers. If your employer is not complying with state or federal minimum wage standards, we can advocate on your behalf. Our team will evaluate your pay records, identify any violations, and consider legal action aimed at recovering the difference between what you were paid and what you should have received, along with potential damages.
Tips
Tipped employees have specific rights regarding the wages and tips they earn. If your employer is unlawfully claiming your tips or not adhering to tip credit regulations, you may need legal intervention. An attorney from our office can help clarify your rights, address any discrepancies in your earnings, and seek appropriate compensation for any misappropriated tips.

Chris was a great attorney. I got fired from my job for refusing a mandatory medical procedure [COVID-19 Vaccine]. He was on my side the whole time. He fought hard for me and gave me updates along the way to keep me informed. I was more than happy with his service and the outcome. I strongly recommend him.
