Focused support for workplace issues
While Mason Law PLLC is best known for personal injury and medical malpractice representation, we also selectively assist clients with certain employment law cases. Our NYC employment lawyer provides thoughtful, honest assessments of workplace disputes. We focus on clear, serious cases where an employee’s rights have been violated under New York or federal law.
Types of employment cases we handle
We consider employment law claims involving:
- Workplace discrimination – hiring, firing, or harassment based on race, sex, gender, disability, national origin, religion, or sexual orientation.
- Wrongful termination – being fired in violation of public policy or as retaliation for reporting misconduct.
- Sexual harassment – hostile work environments or quid pro quo harassment.
- Retaliation claims – punishment after reporting unsafe practices or discrimination.
- Wage and hour disputes – unpaid overtime, off-the-clock work, or denial of lawful breaks.
Not every concern rises to the level of a legal claim. Mason Law PLLC focuses on cases with strong evidence of unlawful treatment.
When employers break the law or abuse their power, we step in to defend your rights and pursue meaningful legal remedies.
Our approach to employment law
If we take on your case, it receives the same thorough preparation and dedication as our injury matters. We review employment records, emails, and company policies to build a strong claim. We also evaluate every inquiry carefully. If your issue falls outside our scope, we’ll let you know quickly and point you toward resources that can help, including government agencies such as the EEOC or the NYS Division of Human Rights.

FAQs about employment law claims
Can I sue my employer for wrongful termination in NY?
Yes, but only if your termination was based on discrimination, retaliation, or another unlawful reason. New York is an at-will employment state, so not every firing qualifies.
What types of workplace discrimination are illegal?
Discrimination based on race, sex, gender identity, religion, disability, national origin, age, and sexual orientation is prohibited under state and federal law.
Do I need evidence to file a claim?
Yes. Emails, performance reviews, witness statements, or official complaints can all support your case. An attorney can guide you on what documentation is most useful.
How long do I have to file an employment claim in New York?
Deadlines vary depending on the type of claim. Some require filing with the EEOC within 300 days. It’s best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
What if my employer retaliates against me for speaking up?
Retaliation is illegal. If you are punished, demoted, or harassed after reporting discrimination or unsafe practices, you may have a separate retaliation claim.
