Employment & Labor Law Cases We Handle

Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. represents employees in a wide range of employment law matters, including:

• Wrongful termination and unlawful firing
• Being fired after reporting illegal conduct
• Forced or pressured resignation
• Workplace discrimination
• Sexual harassment and hostile work environments
• Whistleblower retaliation
• Disability discrimination and failure to accommodate
• Wage and hour violations
• Unpaid overtime
• Minimum wage violations

Employers often rely on fear, silence, and complexity to avoid accountability. Our role is to challenge those tactics and protect your rights.

Discrimination & Harassment at Work

Workplace discrimination and harassment can take many forms and often escalate quietly over time. Employees may be treated differently, denied opportunities, or targeted after speaking up.

We handle discrimination and harassment claims involving:

• Race or color
• Sex, gender, pregnancy, or sexual orientation
• Disability or medical conditions
• Age
• Religion or national origin

No employee should have to tolerate unlawful conduct just to keep their job.

Fired, Terminated, or Forced to Resign

Many employees are wrongfully fired or pushed to resign after reporting misconduct, requesting accommodations, or asserting their legal rights. Employers may disguise retaliation as performance issues or restructuring.

Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. investigates the true reasons behind a termination and works to hold employers accountable when the law has been violated.

Whistleblower & Retaliation Claims

Employees who report illegal or unethical conduct are protected under state and federal law. Unfortunately, whistleblowers are often met with retaliation, including termination, demotion, reduced hours, or hostile treatment.

If you were punished for speaking up, you may have a valid retaliation or whistleblower claim.

Wage, Hour, and Overtime Violations

Wage theft is one of the most common labor law violations. Employers may fail to pay overtime, misclassify employees, require off-the-clock work, or ignore minimum wage laws.

We represent workers seeking:

• Unpaid wages
• Overtime compensation
• Damages for wage and hour violations

These cases are about more than pay. They are about fairness and respect for your labor.
