Law Firm Overview

At Sugarman & Susskind, P.A., in Miami and Fort Lauderdale, Florida, we believe in fostering an environment where promises made to workers can be kept; where working people, their wages, and their pension and health benefits are protected.  We do this by dedicating our practice to representing individual employees, labor unions and employee benefit plan trust funds and fiduciaries.  Please contact us if you need a Florida lawyer with experience in employee benefits law, ERISA fiduciary law, wage and hour law or labor law to find out how we can help. 

Bob Sugarman and Howard Susskind established Sugarman & Susskind in 1985 in order to provide quality legal services for the benefit of working people and their pension and health insurance funds.  There are now seven attorneys at Sugarman & Susskind, including a former U.S. Department of Labor attorney with experience in ERISA fiduciary law, published authors, a former police officer and public pension plan trustee, attorneys with multiple listings in the "Best Lawyers in America," a Florida Bar Board Certified Labor and Employment Lawyer, multiple members of the AFL-CIO Lawyers Coordinating Committee, and attorneys bilingual in Spanish.  All of our attorneys share a commitment to protecting employees' rights, wages, benefits, and working conditions.

Laws relating to employee benefits, wages and collectively bargained labor agreements are complex. We know these laws; we've been working with them for years. When you need a lawyer who understands employee benefits law, with experience in labor law, or who can help you with a wage claim, please contact us.  Please visit our website at www.sugarmansusskind.com for more information about our firm.
