Employment laws have evolved to address advancements in civil rights, workplace environments, and technology.

Challenges for Employers and Employees
Employers and business owners aim to create a productive and positive workplace because it directly impacts efficiency, productivity, and overall success. Ensuring respectful and lawful interactions with employees is crucial to preventing conflicts and maintaining a compliant work environment.
For employees, a safe and equitable workplace is a fundamental right. At Business Law Group, we have substantial experience representing both employers and employees in various employment matters. These include workplace discrimination, sexual harassment, wage disputes, privacy violations, and safety law breaches. We are committed to fostering a work environment where discrimination based on disability, sex, race, or sexual orientation is not tolerated.
Understanding Federal Employee Protections
Federal employees often benefit from job protections not available to those in the private sector. However, addressing grievances within the federal system can be particularly complex. Issues such as harassment, discrimination, wrongful termination, or retaliation for whistleblowing require careful handling.
Our team at Business Law Group is dedicated to helping federal employees address and resolve these issues effectively. We provide guidance to navigate the federal administrative system and work to ensure that your rights are protected throughout the process.
Support for Military Service Members
Despite the benefits associated with military service, current and former members of the U.S. Armed Forces can face unfair treatment and discrimination in the workplace. Transitioning to civilian roles can be challenging, including finding new employment and advancing in a new career.
Business Law Group is committed to assisting military personnel in protecting their rights and addressing any discrimination or mistreatment they encounter, whether in federal or private sectors.
Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA)
The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA) outlines the rights of uniformed service members and the responsibilities of their civilian employers. The Act guarantees:
- Reemployment in the same or a similar position after returning from military service.
- Protection against discrimination based on military service.
- Continuation of employer-based health care coverage for up to 24 months while serving in the military.
- Equal employment advancement opportunities as those without military service.
- Protection against penalties related to seniority or job position due to military service.
- The right to enforce these protections without facing retaliation based on military service.
If you believe you are experiencing workplace discrimination or hostility due to your military background, Business Law Group is here to ensure your legal rights are upheld.
