Employment Law Attorney in Silver Spring
Serving Workers Throughout Maryland and Washington D.C.
In the last few hundred years, United States employment laws have come a long way. Local, state, and federal legislation requires employers to treat their employees fairly, respect their needs, and allow them to learn and assert their rights.
Whether by ignorance or willful opposition to these laws, some employers fail to fulfill their responsibilities. They discriminate, deny mandated time-off, refuse to provide disability accommodations, and foster hostile or abusive work environments. If you have experienced these unacceptable conditions or events, you need an experienced professional who will not hesitate to advocate for your rights and hold your employer accountable.
At Emejuru Law, our Silver Spring based attorney provides strategic legal services for workers throughout Maryland and D.C. We assist clients who have experienced discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination, and much more. We also provide comprehensive litigation services, handling cases involving civil rights, commercial disputes, and consumers’ rights. No matter what specific issue or crisis you bring to our firm, you can expect us to treat you with the utmost respect and compassion.
Don’t wait to pursue justice. Schedule your confidential consultation by contacting us online or calling (240) 607-5552 today. We speak Spanish upon request.
