YOU HAVE RIGHTS IN THE WORKPLACE AND WHEN THOSE RIGHTS ARE VIOLATED YOU DON’T HAVE TO SIMPLY MOVE ON. WE CAN HELP.

At Alan Lescht & Associates, P.C., we are dedicated to advocating for you when your employer treats you unfairly. We have over seventeen years of experience representing clients on a wide range of employment law issues, including:

• Discrimination
• Wrongful Termination
• Medical / Family Leave Act
• Employment Contract Disputes
• Sexual Harassment
• Unpaid Wages
• Overtime

When you are discriminated against and mistreated in the workplace it may be more than just unfair, it may be illegal. We can help.

Attention Federal Employees

We have extensive experience representing clients in hearings before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the Merit System Protection Board (MSPB). Federal employment disputes are traditionally addressed through an administrative process, rather than a judicial one. We regularly work with federal employees and we have an intimate familiarity with the administrative rules governing federal employment.

If you believe you have been discriminated against and/or mistreated in the workplace, or wrongfully denied employment or advancement, you have recourse. CONTACT US. We will be happy to meet with you to answer your questions and discuss how we can help. (202) 463-603
