Wow! What a law firm, words can’t describe how amazing these lawyers are. I have never felt so trusting, comfortable and empowered by strangers before. But when I say this has been a long and blissful 3 years fighting my case with Tiffany and Peter, I wouldn’t choose anyone else for better representation! Tiffany made me so comfortable and helped my with my depression and Anxiety I felt over the past years dealing with my case, that she felt more like a friend, rather than just my lawyer. She understood me, and she empathized with me, and knew that justice needed to be served. When I say these two (Tiffany & Peter) are so knowledgeable in their profession, so determined and strong willed, they are literally unstoppable. I never knew a law firm could make me feel so empowered, and give me back hope that I had lost. Literally the best and highly recommended, when you feel like no one will listen, know that there are people out there who are compassionate, understanding and strong willed to be able to get the job done, but only at McComber !

There are no words to explain what a compassionate and hardworking lawyer Alan Schorr is. I will be forever grateful for his hard work and devoted staff to help me get through a terrible situation in life. He cares for his clients so much and that was exactly what I needed. I've never been in a situation where I needed legal help like this and while I hope I never am again, I can't imagine finding anyone like Alan. If you want someone that cares for you and cares for your mental health during a hard time, you will not meet a sharper and more compassionate lawyer. He is sharp! Yet so compassionate and understanding. Thank you to this amazing firm and Alan.

I hired Mr. Schorr regarding a disability discrimination issue with my previous employer. He was always very prompt in replying and answering any questions I had, is very knowledgeable, and is very easy to work with. Everyone I dealt with from his firm was great. He really helped make something very stressful into an easy process, and he was supportive of my decisions regarding settling versus going to court. I am so grateful to him for his excellent representation, and I highly recommend him if you are dealing with an employment related discrimination issue.

Unfortunately, I sustained personal injuries from a pedestrian hit and run; however I was fortunate enough to have been recommended to work with Michael P. Burakoff. He was very diligent to explain in detail everything to me to make sure I understood what was going on every step of the way. Even though I know he has a busy schedule, the way he took his time with each meeting and phone call made you feel as if you were his only client. The way Michael listens with such compassion truly makes you feel like he is on your team. His legal secretary, Sandra Griego was fantastic to work with as well. Both Michael and Sandra are extremely quick to respond, on top of their game and so organized which is definitely crucial for any case. While I hope to not sustain any injuries in the future, it is without doubt that I will work with Micheal and his team again without hesitation. You will be in great hands!

Unfortunately my husband was hurt while on duty (police officer) but we were fortunate enough to be represented by Mr. Michael P. Burakoff, he personally handled my husband's case. From the very 1st phone call to his office, his staff were incredibly helpful and listened to all of our inquiries. To our surprise Mr Burakoff returned our phone call quickly and dedicated time, not only to find out all the details to my husband's case, but he was so incredibly patient, professional and compassionate to what was going on with my husband'[s injuries. Mr. Burakoff took a personal interest in the outcome of the case as well as my husband's recovery throughout the process of medical treatment, paperwork and settlement of the case. Mr. Burakoff explained in great detail every step of the way and would call us with updates. Mr. Burakoff and his staff were never too busy to answer any of his calls and/or visits to the office. We have never met such a dedicated and professional attorney, willing to help and continue to be involved in my husband's recovery. Throughout my husband's 18 year career he has met and worked with many attorneys and Mr. Burakoff is the only attorney that we would ever use or recommend. My husband has personally recommended Mr. Burakoff to any officer that has been injured, Mr. Burakoff prides himself in helping police officers or any 1st responders.

For three years, Patricia showed empathy, integrity, and dedication. Both Richard and Patricia, would frequently collaborate to make sure that my case was going in the right direction. They were careful, calculated and most importantly caring. At no time did I feel unsupported. Patricia compassionately and with great care made sure both my wife and I were comfortable and happy with the decisions that were presented in settlement. In finality of the case, I feel vindicated and the wrongs that were done to me were substantiated. Both Patricia and Richard are to be thanked for their hard work, dedication and tenacity.

Jon Green is a consummate high integrity legal professional who not only knows New Jersey employment law but knows how it works and how to work it. He is relentless and tenacious in his pursuit of justice for his client. He’s fearless and will consistently fight to get a fair settlement for you. He doesn’t back down. He’s a client-oriented attorney who listens carefully to his client so that he fully understands the case details and what your objectives are. If he doesn’t know or understand something you’ve said, he’ll ask you to explain further. He doesn’t assume anything. He’s very detail oriented. Jon will be fully engaged in your case and is best described as “all in” once the wheels of justice begin to turn. Jon also will tell you what you need to know not what you want to hear. He’ll give you the good news and the bad news. As the case twists and turns, Jon takes the time to explain it to you so you understand it and what ramifications it has for your case. Jon works with the client collaborating on strategies and next steps. I was referred to Jon by a corporate labor attorney who recommended Jon because “Jon has a game plan”. Once Jon knows all the details of your case he definitely will have a game plan. That said, he is open to the client’s opinions and is willing to take a different path that the client suggests if it makes sense and is beneficial to the case. Jon was always accessible and his staff and other partners were very helpful. After three and a half years the case was settled out of court and it was a very positive outcome. In my opinion, you couldn’t have a better employee rights attorney fighting for you than Jon Green. TS

Jon represented me as a whistleblower against a former employer. He worked with me for over three years and negotiated a settlement that I am happy with. Jon’s knowledge of employment law, coupled with his many years of experience never ceased to amaze me. He always took my calls and answered my questions, patiently educating me on how the law works. What you want from your case and what you can realistically achieve with the evidence you have is something that Jon understands well. Jon is open-minded, he will listen to your suggestions and will work with you to give you the best chance of success. Jon has seen it, done it and he draws on his own experiences over his long career to provide the “battle plan” for your case. The proof is in the results and I can truly say that Jon delivered for me. We spent a long time together working on my case.

Aimee Lin helped us with a very stressful, employment law matter. Before deciding to hire Aimee, we had another legal consultation, but we immediately felt at ease with Aimee and moved forward with her. She'll calmly assess the strengths and weaknesses of your case. She'll put you at ease, not in an emotional crutch kind of way, but by bringing her vast experience in employment and contract law to bear on your case. Aimee was reassuring, articulate, knowledgeable, and very committed to developing the absolute best legal arguments for us. She presented many solid legal strategies. She communicated with us throughout our engagement and was super responsive to our questions. Being involved in litigation is terribly stressful, especially for the uninitiated. We felt like Aimee had our back the entire time. If you're considering Aimee for your legal matter, I would definitely recommend her.

A few months ago, my job laid me off without notice. They handed me a 14 page document to read and sign full of legal jargon. Feeling uneasy about signing these papers a friend recommended Aimee to me. Not only did Aimee attend to my needs, but she took the time to go through the document page by page. She explained to be what the job was requesting and negotiated on my behalf for different terms. Not wanting to have any contact with the company Aimee did all communication on my behalf. By the end of the negotiation I received more money than what was originally offered to me. I am not recommending Aimee because she got me more money. I am recommending her because it was clear that my needs were her first priority. She is detailed oriented, trustworthy and caring. Needless to say she is also a phenomenal lawyer. It is without doubt that I would 100% endorse her to anyone.

I hired Mr. Tatulli on three cases and he successfully represented me by winning a case by exposing a mayor who fabricated data against me (wrongful termination/suspension). His research and closing statements unequivocally won over the city council resulting in my reinstatement. Mr. Tatulli provides the legal knowledge, constant and effective communication, die-hard commitment, the highest level of integrity, and the demonstrated ability to take on any firm that is believed to be a legal industry champion and slay them with his stone of intelligence and a slingshot of passion that is second to none. The second (defamation) and third (employment) cases are ongoing and positive results have been evidenced with the defamation case and we are confident of the outcome for the employment case. He is David "the counselor" seeking justice against what often appears to be legal Goliaths!

Timothy's research into my case was thorough and thoughtful. It was obvious that he had the experience and expertise I needed, but his care and concern for the human side is what really set this counsel apart. Finding an attorney with his integrity, thoughtfulness and courtroom savvy was a blessing to me, as I did not know which way to turn after being injured due to a landlord that did not act on my pleas for heat in the wintertime. His tenacity in the pre-trial and throughout the ordeal, and his knowledge and insight into the law and how it should protect me sent a strong message; do the right thing, or meet my lawyer, Timothy McIlwain in the courtroom! I can't recommend him highly enough even if we did lose the case (which we did not!)!

Ms. Shishkin helped me navigate an employment law issue. She was professional, responsive and helpful. She was able to communicate the law and likely responses from my employer in a way that was very helpful. Ms. Shiskin also helped to provide concrete advice for interacting with my employer that was equally as helpful. Her superb advice and professional demeanor was in stark contrast to other attorneys I interviewed to assist with my particular employment law issue. Other attorneys’ advice was not as helpful or concrete and their focus seemed solely on litigating. Ms. Shiskin used her legal expertise to help me reach the best possible resolution for my particular employment law issue. I recommend her legal expertise and commend her client focus and strong strategic approach.

I first heard about Hope Lang after reading an article that was in the Star-Ledger about her employment law practice. After being let go from my job at 7 months pregnant I sought out the expertise of Hope Lang to represent me in a litigation concerning pregnancy discrimination. I was very impressed with her knowledge on the topic and her determination to seek out all of the facts regarding my discrimination. She not only showed devotion to my case by continuing to use her knowledge of the law to extensively research and analyze all facts regarding my discrimination but she also showed compassion and took the time to answer any questions I had regarding my case. She continually kept me informed regarding my discrimination case and after months of representing me I was happy with the positive outcome. I would definitely recommend Hope Lang to anyone in need of legal assistance. Her expertise along with her compassion on seeking out the truth to help out those who have been discriminated against are wonderful qualities to have in a lawyer.

Hope A. Lang has been instrumental in a positive outcome when representing me at a litigation concerning employment law. She was the most effective attorney I ever met. The law firm I went to before her, told me I did not have a case. Hope delved deeply into the facts surrounding the termination and discrimination against me and agreed to represent me. I am so glad I went to her for a second opinion. She delved deeper and deeper into the facts and legal analysis, uncovering more and more to support my case. She was a skilled negotiator, and a pit bull master of the legal process. What perhaps even meant more to me, was her depth of compassion and how supportive she was of me and understanding the stress I was experiencing because of my former harrowing job experience. No other lawyer would have gone into the depths. She was always professional and very patient in answering all of my questions and explaining things to me. I firmly believe that if I had hired any other attorney, the outcome would not be positive. The reason for this is that she delved deeply into my testimony, and then delved even deeper to find the truth. I would highly recommend Ms. Lang for your case as I know she will do the same for you. She spent many months on my position, again with a very positive outcome.

I've had Charlene represent me on a few occasions and was highly satisfied with her services. Charlene is a strong, assertive and intelligent lawyer, with a no-nonsense approach. The other side will seem unprepared when Charlene is representing you, in my experience.

Charlene was accessible when I needed to touch base, directly or through emails, faxes and/or leaving messages with Melissa.

He would always return my calls very promptly, and if he didn't hear from me, he would contact me to inquire about any questions I had about my case. Steve represented me in two DUI cases in municipal court. I was facing a two year loss of license in the second DUI. He was able to get this DUI dismissed. In the first DUI, I was facing 7 months loss of license, and Steve was able to get that reduced to 3 months. Thanks to Steve I have been able to get my life back on track.

What a Discrimination Lawyer Can Do for You

A discrimination lawyer specializes in handling cases where individuals or groups face unfair treatment based on protected characteristics, such as race, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, or sexual orientation. These lawyers assist clients in filing discrimination claims, representing them in legal proceedings, and ensuring that their rights under federal, state, and local laws are upheld. Discrimination cases may arise in employment, housing, education, public accommodations, or other settings.

Whether you’ve been discriminated against at work, denied housing, or treated unfairly in other areas of life, a discrimination lawyer can help you navigate the legal process and seek compensation or corrective action.

When Should I Hire a Discrimination Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a discrimination lawyer in several situations where unfair treatment occurs based on protected characteristics. Common scenarios include:

  • Employment Discrimination:
    • Workplace discrimination: If you’ve been treated unfairly at work because of your race, gender, disability, religion, age, sexual orientation, or another protected status, a lawyer can help you file a claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or a similar state agency.
    • Wrongful termination: If you were fired due to discrimination or retaliation for reporting discriminatory behavior, a lawyer can assist with filing a lawsuit and seeking compensation for lost wages, emotional distress, and other damages.
    • Failure to promote: If you’ve been denied a promotion or opportunities due to discriminatory practices, a lawyer can investigate the claim and represent you in legal actions against your employer.
    • Harassment: If you’ve experienced workplace harassment, such as sexual harassment or a hostile work environment based on your race, gender, or other characteristics, a lawyer can help you pursue legal remedies.
  • Housing Discrimination:
    • Denial of housing: If you’ve been denied housing due to your race, disability, family status, or other protected factors, a lawyer can help you file a complaint with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) or sue the landlord or property manager for violating the Fair Housing Act.
    • Unfair rental practices: If a landlord or property manager treats you unfairly based on discriminatory factors (e.g., refusing reasonable accommodations for a disability), a lawyer can help you enforce your rights.
  • Education Discrimination:
    • Discrimination in schools: If you or your child has faced discrimination in an educational setting based on race, disability, gender, or religion, a lawyer can help you file complaints under laws like Title VI, Title IX, or the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
  • Public Accommodations:
    • Denial of services: If a business or public service has discriminated against you based on race, gender, disability, or other protected characteristics, a lawyer can assist you in filing a complaint or lawsuit under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or other anti-discrimination laws.

Hiring a discrimination lawyer early can help protect your rights and ensure that your claim is filed within legal deadlines.

What Does a Discrimination Lawyer Do?

A discrimination lawyer provides a range of legal services to help individuals and groups fight against discriminatory practices. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Filing discrimination claims: A lawyer can help you file a complaint with government agencies, such as the EEOC, HUD, or your state’s human rights commission. They ensure that your claim is properly documented and filed within required time limits.
  • Investigating discrimination claims: Discrimination lawyers gather evidence, interview witnesses, and review documents to build a strong case for proving discriminatory practices.
  • Negotiating settlements: In many cases, a lawyer can negotiate a settlement with the employer, landlord, or other party involved in the discrimination case, seeking compensation or corrective action without going to trial.
  • Representing clients in court: If your case goes to court, a lawyer will represent you during hearings, present evidence, and argue your case before a judge or jury.
  • Handling retaliation claims: If you face retaliation for filing a discrimination complaint or reporting discriminatory practices, a lawyer can help you pursue a retaliation claim.
  • Advising on legal rights: A discrimination lawyer explains your legal rights under federal and state anti-discrimination laws, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the ADA, the Fair Housing Act, and others.

How Are Discrimination Lawyers Paid?

Discrimination lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the expected duration of the legal process. Common payment structures include:

  • Contingency fee: Many discrimination lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. Their fee is usually a percentage of the settlement or court award, typically ranging from 25% to 40%.
  • Hourly rate: For cases that don’t involve a contingency fee arrangement, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates for discrimination lawyers generally range from $200 to $600 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and the case’s complexity.
  • Flat fee: For simpler legal tasks, such as drafting a discrimination complaint or providing legal advice, some lawyers may charge a flat fee.
  • Pro bono or reduced fees: Some discrimination lawyers offer pro bono (free) or reduced-fee services, especially in cases involving low-income clients or significant civil rights issues.

It’s important to discuss fee arrangements during your initial consultation to ensure that you understand the total cost of legal services and how payment will be handled.

How Much Does a Discrimination Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a discrimination lawyer depends on factors like the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the potential for a settlement or trial. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fees: If the lawyer works on a contingency basis, their fee will typically range from 25% to 40% of any settlement or court award. For example, if you win a settlement of $50,000 and the lawyer’s fee is 30%, they would receive $15,000, and you would keep the remaining $35,000.
  • Hourly rates: Discrimination lawyers who charge by the hour typically bill between $200 and $600 per hour. For example, a case that takes 20 hours of legal work at $300 per hour would cost $6,000 in legal fees.
  • Flat fees: Some legal services, such as filing a discrimination complaint or providing a legal consultation, may be available for a flat fee ranging from $500 to $2,500, depending on the complexity of the task.
  • Pro bono or sliding scale fees: In some cases, particularly for low-income individuals, lawyers may offer reduced fees or work pro bono.

Always ask for a detailed estimate of costs during your consultation, and clarify whether the lawyer offers flexible payment options.

Top Questions to Ask a Discrimination Lawyer

Before hiring a discrimination lawyer, it’s important to ask key questions to ensure they have the experience and qualifications to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with discrimination cases?
    Ensure that the lawyer has handled discrimination cases similar to yours, whether it involves employment, housing, or public accommodation discrimination.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee, hourly rate, or flat fee, and ask for a detailed breakdown of costs.
  3. What are my chances of success?
    Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case, including potential challenges and the likelihood of success.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Discrimination cases can take time to resolve, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to take, from filing a complaint to reaching a settlement or going to trial.
  5. Will I need to go to court?
    Ask whether your case is likely to settle out of court or if a trial may be necessary. If a trial is possible, ask what steps the lawyer will take to prepare.
  6. What damages or remedies can I seek?
    Ask about the types of compensation or corrective action you can pursue, such as back pay, emotional distress damages, job reinstatement, or policy changes.
  7. What steps should I take to protect my rights?
    Ask for advice on how to document evidence, handle workplace or housing interactions, and avoid retaliation while your case is pending.

How to Check the Credibility of a Discrimination Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable discrimination lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Check their bar status: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and in good standing with the state bar association. You can check this on your state bar’s website.
  • Look for discrimination case experience: Review the lawyer’s website or profile to ensure they specialize in employment law, civil rights, or discrimination cases and have successfully handled similar cases in the past.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the lawyer.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on discrimination matters.
  • Check for certifications or memberships: Look for certifications or memberships in civil rights organizations or employment law associations, such as the National Employment Lawyers Association (NELA).

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a discrimination lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Detailed account of the discrimination: Provide a clear description of the discriminatory actions, including dates, locations, and individuals involved. Document specific incidents and any witnesses who can support your claim.
  • Workplace or housing records: Bring copies of relevant employment or housing documents, such as job performance evaluations, rental agreements, emails, or written correspondence related to the discrimination.
  • Company or organization policies: If the discrimination occurred in the workplace or housing, bring copies of company policies, employee handbooks, or housing agreements that outline anti-discrimination policies.
  • Evidence of damages: Provide evidence of any financial losses, such as lost wages, job termination, or increased rent, as well as emotional or psychological distress caused by the discrimination.
  • Previous complaints or actions: If you’ve filed previous complaints or taken any action related to the discrimination, such as reporting the issue to HR or filing a complaint with a government agency, bring copies of those documents.
  • Questions about the process: Prepare a list of questions about your legal options, potential outcomes, and the lawyer’s approach to handling your case.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice for pursuing your discrimination claim.
