Employment Law for Manhattan Workers
Sexual Harassment
Quid pro quo demands, hostile work environments, and retaliation for reporting harassment. Manhattan workers are protected by the NYCHRL — the strongest anti-harassment law in the country — as well as Title VII and the NYSHRL.
Workplace Discrimination
Race, national origin, religion, gender, age, disability, and sexual orientation discrimination. Sean pursues claims before the EEOC, the NYSDHR, and the NYC Commission on Human Rights, as well as in the Southern District of New York and state court.
Retaliation
Employers who punish employees for reporting wrongdoing, filing complaints, or exercising legal rights face serious liability. Sean has built a strong track record of retaliation recoveries for Manhattan workers.
Wrongful Termination
Fired for discriminatory reasons, in retaliation, or in violation of a contract or public policy. Sean investigates every termination to identify every viable claim.
