The Employment Attorneys of Newton Barth Protect You Against Discrimination and Harassment in the Workplace
Your career and your employment are more than how you earn a living; they are the result of hard work, dedication, the relentless development of your skills and talents, and are a part of your identity.
So when you are wrongly terminated, harassed, discriminated or retaliated against at work, or if you are being terminated and asked to sign a severance agreement, it is of the utmost importance that you act decisively and select the best available legal counsel. Too often, executives and employees fail to understand how much is inherently at stake in an employment law matter.
