Practice Areas : Employment Law
Elkind and DiMento, P.A., represents both employees
and employers regarding employment issues having
legal implications that may come up during the
course of a day or during the course of an individual’s
employment with an employer. Elkind and DiMento,
P.A., is as comfortable representing an employee
as an employer. Many small to mid-size businesses
do not have corporate counsel on staff and find
that contacting large law firms with corporate
departments prove too expensive for their bottom
line. We are cognizant of our employer clients’ costs
and can be counted on to provide sound legal advice
so that our employer clients may make sound business
judgments in as cost effective a manner as possible.
Elkind and DiMento, P.A. also has expertise in
representing employees who have been victims of
common law and statutory violations of sexual harassment,
whistle blower protection, employment discrimination
and claims for wrongful termination. The Law prohibits
an employer to discriminate because of race, creed,
color, national origin, ancestry, age, matrimonial
status, domestic partnership status, sexual orientation,
sex or disability.
Employees of the State of New Jersey enjoy two
of the most protective statutes in the New Jersey
Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA) and
the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (LAD).
The lawyers at Elkind and DiMento, P.A., will
evaluate cases on behalf of either the employee
or employer involving common law or statutory claims
for discrimination, sexual harassment, whistle
blower protection and claims for wrongful termination.
We will fully explain your options to you and the
legal implications of the decisions available to
you. We will also aggressively litigate claims
advanced by our employee clients and aggressively
defend litigation advanced against our employer
clients.
