Employment Law
In these difficult times, lawsuits seem to have become a fact of life. An adverse civil judgment will have a devastating impact on your business, both as to your company’s reputation and your bottom line. Here at Joe Young Law, we are dedicated to providing our clients with effective legal representation, while keeping costs down. We work hard to resolve disputes as quickly as possible, by pursuing creative solutions to seemingly intractable problems, and seeking appropriate settlements at the earliest possible date.

Discrimination, Harassment and Retaliation
Employment litigation is not limited merely to employees who have been terminated from their jobs. Many problems at work occur while you are still employed. Discriminatory practices in the office can be overt, or take on more subtle forms, such as an employer failing to promote employees of a certain race, age or gender. Employees also encounter harassment in the workplace, including sexual harassment. Harassment may not be limited to the actions of your employer or supervisor, but may originate from co-workers as well. Employers may also retaliate against employees, often after an employee has exposed problems in the workplace. As an employee, you do not have to tolerate these actions. Joe Young Law can assist you in receiving compensation for discriminatory, harassing or retaliatory behaviors, and help you prevent these behaviors in the future.

Wrongful and Constructive Discharge
If you have recently been wrongly terminated, or have been forced to resign from your job because of intolerable working conditions, we may be able to help. Employers often terminate employees for any number of illegal or improper means, including discrimination, retaliation, or going against their own established policies. Employers may also avoid firing an employee by making the employees’ work environment so unbearable that the employee quits on his or her own. As the high unemployment rate continues, it is important for you to hold your employer accountable for their actions. If you feel you have been improperly terminated or forced to resign, contact us today.
