5 Ways an Employment Lawyer Can Help You Through This Crisis

Here at Harman Law, we believe it’s vital we support each other through this pandemic. One of our strengths is employment law, and our team is ready to leverage those skills to help you. However, we know if you’re not a lawyer, it can be tricky to pin down exactly what an employment attorney can do for you! Here’s a quick rundown.

A great employment lawyer can ...

• Help you figure out if your employer is treating you ethically, and protect you if they’re not. Even if your job is stable, you’re likely seeing a lot of changes and upheaval in your workplace. If anything strikes you as odd, makes you uncomfortable, or is putting you in danger, consult an employment lawyer. We can help you identify your rights and hold your employer accountable in court. • Direct you to next steps and resources if you lose your job. Employment lawyers help people through the unemployment process every day, and we can do the same for you! See page 2 for more information on this facet of our business. • Fight for your compensation in court if you’re let go unlawfully. If you were recently laid off and suspect you were a victim of employment retaliation or wrongful termination, we can help! We’ll see if you have a case and take your employer to court if necessary so you get the compensation you deserve. • Fight for your rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) if you take time off because of illness. Depending on your employer and work history, you may be able to take advantage of the FMLA if you or a family member falls victim to COVID-19. We can help you find out if you’re eligible and ensure you can take leave without retaliation. • Guide you to best practices if you’re an employer or business owner yourself. If you’re an entrepreneur struggling with this economic downturn, we can steer you through the process of making staff changes to ensure you’re complying with the law. With our help, you can do right by your employees and protect your business. If any of these services would help take weight off your shoulders, please reach out to us today.
