Maryland Employment Attorney

You have many rights as a worker. If your company violates them, you can often recover monetary compensation for the damage done. 

You may be able to file a claim with a government agency to force your employer to respect your rights. Or, you may be able to file a civil suit to collect compensation for the damage done because they failed to do so.

JD James Law has a long history of representing clients when they encounter workplace issues. From unpaid wages to illegal discrimination or harassment, our firm can help you hold employers accountable when things go wrong.

What Can a Maryland Employment Lawyer Do to Help You?

A Maryland employment attorney helps you when your company fails to respect your rights and you are damaged because of it. There are many different types of cases an employment attorney can help you with, including claims arising from:

• Unlawful discrimination: This includes hostile work environment discrimination and disparate impact discrimination. It also includes discrimination based on race, religion, sex, age, and national origin.
• Sexual harassment: This includes quid pro quo harassment, where workplace benefits are directly tied to your response to sexual behaviors, as well as hostile work environment discrimination, where you are made uncomfortable at work based on sex. 
• Wage and hour violations: If your employer failed to pay you as required and you lost out on funds that you should have collected, you can pursue a claim under laws entitling you to a fair wage. 
• Wrongful termination: If you are terminated from your job for an unlawful reason, such as for reporting harassing behavior, then we can help you to pursue a wrongful termination claim.

If you experience any of these violations, an employment lawyer in Maryland can help you understand your rights, identify responsible parties, and build a strong claim for justice. In many situations, you may also file a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), which investigates and enforces federal workplace discrimination laws.
