In addition to recovering compensation for injuries sustained on the job, employees who have been wronged by their employer in a wrongful termination or other action in the employment context may also require legal representation to remedy the situation. Employees who have been the victims of workplace sexual harassment or employment discrimination on the basis of race, sex, religion, age, disability, or other protected factors may sue their employer for reinstatement, back pay, and money damages. Workers who have been unfairly denied overtime pay or have other wage and hour issues may need to file a claim with a public agency or initiate litigation in the courts in order to recover what is owed to them.
