Fighting For Your Employee Rights

Employees are naturally reluctant to file claims or assert their rights. You worry that rocking the boat could cost you your job or hurt your career. But employers do not hold all the cards. You have rights and remedies under the law, and your company faces risks by ignoring your claims or retaliating.

Gina Cadogan is an accomplished trial lawyer who can be your voice and empower you to stand up to your employer or former employer in pursuit of justice.
