Law Firm Overview

Thomas & Solomon LLP has developed its reputation by focusing exclusively on matters of employment law. Because of our single-minded focus we have a solid core of experience, knowledge and relationships that enable us to deliver successful outcomes for our clients. We are skilled and experienced in handling a range of employment issues from major class action lawsuits to lawsuits involving one employee and from contract negotiations for high-level executives to advice on on-going issues in the workplace. Our reputation stems from the successes we have gained for our clients and the personal attention we pay to their needs.

Thomas & Solomon is the law firm of choice for attorneys seeking legal advice for themselves, their family or friends. A measure of success is our selection by the Monroe County Bar Association as their employment law counsel.

Thomas & Solomon is committed to representing the rights of employees in the workplace. As advocates of the individual, we counsel our clients on how to protect their interests and gain favorable outcomes without litigation. We find that most matters can and should be resolved without litigation, and in many cases without retaining our firm further. We do not waste people's time, energy and money pursuing cases without merit. If we do take a case to litigation, we commit to whatever it takes to gain a positive result to our clients. The firm has secured millions of dollars in settlements for its clients.
