Employment Law for Employees in Vestavia Hills

You owe it to yourself to demand for fair treatment. Alabama has laws in place to ensure that your employer provides you with the treatment you deserve. Let our team help you get the fair treatment you deserve.

We represent employees in the following matters:

• Wage and hour issues–we will advocate on your behalf if your employer has failed to pay you all of the compensation you have earned including unpaid overtime
• Issues with your classification–if your employer has classified you as an independent contractor, you should be aware of your workplace rights. Our firm can ensure that the classification of your job is appropriate for your actual job duties. If you have been misclassified, we can help you obtain unpaid benefits
• Severance Packages–In some cases, an employer will offer severance to a departing employee and ask the employee to sign a release. By signing a release, the employee may be giving up important rights. It is important to obtain legal advice before you sign any release provided by your employer
• Wrongful termination–You may have been subjected to wrongful termination if you were fired based on your membership in a protected class, if you were let go in retaliation for engaging in a legally protected activity, or if you were fired despite a binding employment contract. Our firm can provide the assistance you need if you believe you have been wrongfully terminated
• Toxic work environment–Does it feel like your workplace is toxic? Are you consistently subjected to bullying, mobbing, or other forms of toxic behavior? Our law firm can help you navigate through this complex claim with understanding and empathy.
• Civil Rights — The federal government has passed numerous laws that provide a framework ensuring that each employee is treated with respect in and out of the workplace. We can provide legal advice if your civil rights have been violated by your employer or a prospective employer
• Workers' compensation – Have you had a personal injury at work before? You may qualify for money damages, lost earnings, and extensive medical benefits if you have been injured on the job
• Workplace Harassment —Employers must refrain from engaging in these and other types of illegal harassment under both Alabama and federal law

Union and Employer Advocacy

If you are an employer,

• Federal law might mandate that you have to carry out negotiations. These negotiations may be related to the terms of a collective bargaining agreement (CBA) or it might to for an individual negotiation. Regardless of the nature of your negotiation, a Vestavia Hills labor management attorney can assist ensuring your interests are protected.
• If you are an employer, you may also be at the start of labor negotiations. That might mean that – for the first time – you have had to hire an HR director or outside consultant to guide you through the process. Given how much is at stake, an initial CBA deserves more than a do-it-yourself attempt.
