Employment Lawyers for Employees
When you meet with one of our employment lawyers, you will learn that employees have a lot of rights when they complain about unsafe or unlawful practices of their employer. In New Jersey, there is a statue called CEPA – Conscientious Employee Protection Act. In Pennsylvania, there is a whistleblower’s statute as well as a federal whistleblower’s in Qui tam statutes.
Employment Attorneys for Employers
Our employment attorneys can help you with any employee misconduct issues. Employee misconduct is something that always needs to be investigated. The employer should interview every person who is a witness to the misconduct. Then the employer should collect statements, and have all statements signed by the witnesses. In the event that this later becomes the subject of litigation, the employer then will have evidence that there was actual misconduct.
