(Employment Law)

Have you been sexually harassed at your workplace?

Has your employer discriminated against you?

Do you feel your employer has failed to treat you fairly on the issues of affirmative action, employee benefits, whistleblower litigation, wrongful discharge, employment contracts, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Family Medical Leave Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the Federal Employer's Liability Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, or special laws governing municipal employment? Employment law covers a complex network of laws that controls how employers must treat employees, former employees, and applicants for employment. Ogg, Murphy & Perkosky will be a powerful partner to protect your legal rights!

We charge various rates for personally consulting with you about these types of issues. Depending on the specific issues involved, and your status, we offer hourly rates, reduced fees, contingency fees, and modified contingency fees. The vast majority of employment cases we accept for litigation are accepted on either a full contingency, or a modified contingency fee basis. A modified contingency fee basis is one in which the client pays a modest amount for fees and costs at the outset of the litigation. The remainder of the fee is then based on a percentage of the funds recovered for you. If we are unable to recover compensation for you, you owe us no further fee. Protecting your rights is important to us. That is why our fee structure is based on both your individual circumstances, as well as the nature of your case. We will fully discuss and explain the fee provisions at the time we discuss your case.

Attorneys put up large sums of money on these complex cases in order to hire experts, and investigators, take depositions, gather evidence and oppose the lawyers of large corporations and their insurance firms. The attorney you choose must be able to cover the expenses for such battles. Not only does Ogg, Murphy & Perkosky have the resources, we have the experience, skill and dedication to successfully resolve your case.
