Overview

“Your employer may have violated your legal rights in the workplace. Remedies may exist. But these remedies may be complex and hard to obtain without a lawyer on your side. There are time limits on your exercise of these rights. If you wait too long, and in some cases that may be a very short time, you will lose your rights. Further, in order to present a case in court, you may need to “exhaust” remedies by filing with state or federal agencies first. There are time limits to file with an agency, and more time limits if the agency does not give you what you want but instead gives you a “right to sue” notice. If you are a public employee you may have to go through your agency’s processes first, or, in some cases you may need to bypass those remedies if you want to get your case heard in a more neutral court.”
