To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to highly recommend Blake Ferris, Brittany Stevens and paralegal Sally Pak, at Phillips & Associates, Attorneys at Law. Both Blake, Brittany & Sally have demonstrated exceptional dedication, expertise, professionalism, and legal acumen in their work regarding employment discrimination law. Blake Ferris and Brttany Stevens are trustworthy and committed attorneys who specializes in employment law. Their attention to detail and strategic approach were extraordinary, and it was evident that they genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for me. Their communication was prompt and clear, keeping me informed and confident every step of the way. Their dedication to representing workers harmed by their employers' legal violations is commendable. They both are experienced litigators who have successfully handled many cases involving workplace discrimination and retaliation. Their commitment to civil rights and fairness in the work environment is evident in their work. Their ability to achieve positive outcomes for their clients through mediation and litigation is truly impressive.

My experience working with Erisa was more than 5 stars I’d give her a 10. Throughout my house closing process Erisa was very thorough, knowledgeable and showed so much compassion and explained every detail throughout the process and our closing contract. What I appreciated the most about her service was her communication, expertise, professionalism and most importantly her empathy. It’s hard to find someone who really has the best interest for you and to trust someone the way I trusted Erisa !! I highly recommend Erisa if you are searching for an attorney ! If you need an attorney when selling or buying a house she is my. Erisa not only assisted us with buying our home , we also hired her when I sold my house as well. I highly recommend her !! Thank you Erisa for your service !

I can't thank Erisa enough for her incredible help during the purchase of my home. From start to finish, she was knowledgeable and also patient, guiding me through every step of the legal process with confidence and clarity. Her attention to detail and dedication ensured that every document was thoroughly reviewed, and she was always available to answer any questions I had, no matter how small. With Erisa by my side, I felt secure knowing I had a skilled attorney who truly had my best interests at heart. If you're looking for a trustworthy, diligent, and expert attorney for your real estate needs, I highly recommend Erisa. She made the entire experience seamless and stress-free!

I don’t know where I’d be without Gordon Law, P.C. They saved me during one of the hardest times of my life. My divorce was messy, and I was scared I’d lose everything. But Steven fought for me like no one else could. He was relentless in court and made sure I got what I deserved. It wasn’t just about winning—it was about making sure I was okay. I’ll never forget how hard they worked for me. If you need a lawyer who truly cares, this is the place to go.

I have had nothing but positive experiences with Susan. Not only does she have excellent communication skill and its easy to get in touch with her but she also goes above and beyond to make sure all my questions and concerns are answered. She has walked me through the process of my case and always made sure I understood what was going on and that I was comfortable with every step we took. After being wrongly terminated from my job, I contacted Susan through this website and she got right to work making sure I understood my rights and the steps we were going to take. She was always available for any concerns I had, and always answered my emails and messages even though it was the weekend. Susan is highly competent as a lawyer and I would highly recommend her as an attorney because she goes above and beyond to make sure you get the justice you need. I have also had the pleasure to know Mr. Charles CARANICAS who has been a great support system in my case. During my meetings with Susan, he was also there to make sure I understood what was going on. He always brought in new contact and information to help with my case. He also called me in behalf of his wife to go through a contract agreement step-by-step and made sure I understood the clause and was comfortable with it. Working with Susan and Mr. Charles put you in good hands because they acknowledge whatever you have to say and you never feel that any of your concerns are ignored no matter how small. I would highly recommend him as an attorney.

He is grace and class under pressure which is so rare these days. Stephen helped with my recent sale of my home. He was outstanding and so helpful in the plethora of advice and information that can too often seem overwhelming to process. Stephen efficiently and calmly guides and supports you every step of the way. If you were to call central casting and ask for the perfect attorney to help you, Stephen would be it.

On a recommendation, I reached out to Tiffany at Young & Ma regarding what would become a discrimination lawsuit against my former employer. What really stood out to me at the beginning was getting a near-immediate response after I contacted her, followed by a phone call. Since things were very raw at the time, this was incredibly appreciated and made me feel heard from the start. In addition to being very empathetic, Tiffany told me the truth. I knew what to expect from the start, and she kept me in the loop as the case progressed. She asked me the right questions which provided insight into facts and issues where the law was broken that I didn’t even realize. I could go on and on about how professionally the case was handled, but the most important thing is that Tiffany made me feel confident that I was right and that I was justified in my allegations. That will always be something that I’ll remember about a situation that was scary and confusing. When we settled, I walked into the courtroom at peace and told my story. She was even so aware of my feelings that she calmed my nerves during the settlement conference with her witty and whip-smart personality. She helped me land on a number that was fair—and thrilled doesn’t even describe the feeling that I felt when we settled. Young & Ma is superb, and I wholeheartedly recommend them.

I had the pleasure of working with Steven Sack, and I cannot express my gratitude enough for the exceptional job he did. His efficiency is unparalleled; Steven worked tirelessly and promptly to address my employment issue, demonstrating a remarkable speed in handling legal matters. What truly sets him apart was his incredible responsiveness – he even scheduled calls with me on Sundays to ensure that all my concerns were addressed promptly and thoroughly. Moreover, Steven went above and beyond by sending me a complimentary copy of his book on Employee Rights. This gesture not only showcased his dedication to educating clients but also proved invaluable in helping me understand my rights in the workplace. With Steven Sack by my side, I felt confident and empowered throughout the entire process. There really isn't a better employment lawyer in the state of New York, and I am grateful for the outstanding service he provided.

I am grateful that I was referred to Steven Sack by another law firm. I felt my options were limited and that perhaps a satisfactory resolution was impossible. Then I met Steven Sack. Professional, no-nonsense, and extremely empathetic is what I found within 5 minutes of speaking with Steven. His guidance and support in navigating the process was invaluable. His expertise led to a quick and positive outcome - a severance much more than I had imagined. I am grateful for his hard work and dedication to my case. I highly recommend Steven Sack without reservation.

Mr. Sack is nothing short of amazing and I can’t recommend him enough! After being fired a few days ago, I scheduled a same-day appointment with Mr. Sack to discuss my options. I met with him at 3 pm, and by 4:30, he successfully changed the terms of my severance agreement to include everything I requested and more! I couldn’t believe it! If you’re anything like me and are feeling lost and hopeless after being fired, Mr. Sack is the advocate you need in your organization corner! He’ll fight to get you what you are owed and deserve (and it’s way more than you think!), empower you with knowledge about your employee rights, restore your sense of hope — and he’ll do it quickly!

I found Peter online , he responded fast and invited me in for a free consultation. He quickly knew all angles to build a decent case. I received a decent settlement in months , NOT YEARS. He is thorough and responsive and gave excellent advice. I don’t usually leave reviews but Peter truly deserves one for a job well done !

The lawyers I have dealt with in the past, have left me with no confidence or security. Mr. Peter Romero was very knowledgeable assertive and proactive. Whenever I called him and left a message, he would always return my call the same day. He discussed my options and answered all of my concerns. I highly recommend Peter Romero to anyone who needs a Labor and employment Litigator. I want to personally thank him for his professionalism and for making my case run smoothly and in a timely manner. Sincerly Bob

I cannot say enough great things about Ms. Dow and her incredible team. From start to finish, they have been nothing but professional, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to my case. Their attention to detail, expertise, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome have been outstanding. I’ve worked with top attorneys in the past for other legal matters, but I can confidently say that I wish I had Ms. Dow representing me from the very beginning. Had I know about Ms.Dow during my divorce, I am certain I wouldn’t have had to return to court. She and her team approach every aspect of the case with precision and care, ensuring no stone is left unturned. If you’re looking for an attorney who truly fights for you, communicates effectively, and delivers results, look no further than Ms. Dow. I highly recommend her and her team to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation. Thank you, Ms. Dow, for everything you and your team have done!.

This is the very first time I've faced a situation like this and Olivia has been very nice and generous in her advice, all over the phone without charge. I am very grateful for that.

As many times I’ve contacted or met with different lawyers I must say Raymond Nardo is the best of all.

Him and his secretary made me feel welcomed and the environment was filled with positivity. Raymond Nardo has been extremely supportive and made me feel confident about my employment situation. I must say if you or anybody else ever have an employment/labor issue that needs representation I highly recommend Raymond Nardo as your Guy and there’s No doubt in this world that you will regret it. You will definitely want to continue to work with him on current and future legal issues guaranteed.

Samantha called me and asked for the details of the case. I was speaking to her a mile a minute because having to regurgitate all of this up again was a bit scary. Samantha stated that if it were okay, I could write my experiences down, and she would contact me the following Monday or Tuesday. Therefore, I gave her a prewritten document about 4-5 pages long. I thought there was no way she would chop this up over the weekend and be ready to proceed with the following steps by Monday or Tuesday. I readied myself again to speak a tad more slowly and calmly. However, once Monday came around, Samatha summarized all of my information as if I had said it. She read it. She detailed precisely what I wanted to say. She is brilliant and fast in distilling information while being pragmatic enough to distinguish between what will be relevant and what isn’t. It was a pleasure speaking and working with Samatha.

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.
