Union County Attorneys

As a point of interesting history, Union County was one of the final counties created in New Jersey. The people who make their homes in Union County have the same struggles as people across the country. And occasionally, those struggles require the assistance of civil rights attorneys.

At , we are led by a team of attorneys whose experience and certification as civil trial lawyers by the Supreme Court of New Jersey are highly sought after. Our entire firm’s focus is answering the questions our clients have and building their cases. We are advocates and advisers to people facing difficult civil law challenges such as:

Employment Law Disputes

Employment law covers Americans with Disabilities Act accommodations as well as wage and hour law. Your employer is someone you rely on for a lot of benefits, and they have power – whether they want it or not – over your day-to-day life. You deserve their respect, and if they do not meet their duties to you, we can fight for you.

Civil Rights Violations

Civil rights violations are not the only fodder for people accused of criminal activity. People face civil rights issues, when there are issues of censorship by a town or when their rights to an education are infringed. You have many civil rights that demand respect, and it can often be challenging to know if you have a case. We are here to help you find the answers you need when you need them.

Workplace Discrimination

Nowhere is your inclusion into a protected class more important than at work. If you experience discrimination – either outright harassment or more subtle situations such as lack of advancement – because of your race, ethnicity, religion or another protected class, we can help. We will listen to your story and file a lawsuit to recover compensation for the challenges you were forced to live through.

We Represent People In Union County

As attorneys, we represent clients across the state of New Jersey, and regularly find ourselves in Elizabeth, and the union county courthouse at 2 Broad St. We meet clients often at the courthouse, or we will meet them at some of the restaurants or shopping districts in the area. Occasionally, we will meet our clients flying in from the Newark Liberty International Airport, before or during their cases.

We come to our clients and meet them where they are. It doesn’t matter if you’re in Elizabeth or anywhere else in Union County, we’ll be there when you need us. Reach out to us at or send an email using this form to get started.
