Maryland Employment Law — Practical Protection for Workers and Employers
Maryland's employment law landscape is shaped by a blend of United States federal protections and state-specific regulations. Workers often experience wage theft, retaliation, or harassment without realizing legal remedies are available. Our attorneys help clients across industries—from healthcare and education to construction and tech—seek justice and secure lost wages, benefits, or reinstatement when appropriate.
We also support those who have suffered from discriminatory practices in hiring, promotion, or termination. If you're questioning whether your employer violated your rights under the Civil Rights Act or failed to accommodate your disability under the ADA, our employment lawyers conduct clear, detailed evaluations of your case and build a plan to pursue relief—through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
Employers, too, need support. From crafting compliant policies to updating employment law posters and navigating workplace disputes, our firm works proactively with Maryland businesses to minimize risk and foster legal workplaces. Whether you’re an injured worker, a person aggrieved by unlawful conduct, or an HR manager facing a complex legal issue, our team stands ready to assist.
