At The Law Offices of Jeffrey E. Goldman, we take these issues seriously and, with more than 25 years of experience, we will place the resources and skill you need at your side.

Whether representing restaurant employees, office workers, or executives, our lawyers work hard to deliver results-oriented services to the victims of discrimination or workplace harassment across New York’s five boroughs and the metro area.

There are many facets to a successful harassment and workplace discrimination case, and our team knows how to address these requirements. Everything from pleading requirements to issues to look for during discovery and the use of expert witnesses, we work diligently to ensure every point is thoroughly examined so your case receives the best outcome.

When it comes to disability claims as well as pregnancy or parental discrimination, we want to help you understand the law and how it applies to your case. To gather some more information regarding The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), take a moment and review the ADA.gov website. On the site, you will find comprehensive information outlining regulations, changes to the law and numerous other resources.
