If you were the victim of workplace discrimination, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, a hostile work environment, or any circumstance at work, Seattle employment law Attorney Rob Kornfeld can help you. Rob has been fighting to protect workers’ rights for 35+ years and he is ready to help you with your employment law claim in Washington state. If your employer has mistreated you or violated any state or federal laws, you may be eligible to file an employment law lawsuit.
Employers often think they have the right to take advantage of their employees, or they treat them poorly because, at the end of the day, they write the checks. This type of treatment is grossly unfair, untrue and, in many cases, a violation of state and federal employment laws that were specifically put in place to prevent improper behavior and discriminatory actions in the workplace.
How Do You Know If You Were the Victim of an Employment Law Violation?
If you were denied a promotion or terminated because of any protected class consideration, such as age, religion, pregnancy, gender, or sexual orientation, you may have a valid employment law claim. Or, you may have a case if you were terminated in violation of your employment contract, employee handbook, or company rules and regulations.
Nobody should feel objectified, victimized, or unsafe in their place of work. If you were subjected to sexual advances in the workplace by a superior or co-worker, especially as a condition of continued employment, and your complaints to management were ignored, you may have a valid sexual harassment claim. You may also have a valid employment law claim if your work environment made it impossible for you to function because it was hostile or intolerable,
Workplace harassment isn’t uncommon, and it can take many shapes and forms. If the employment issue you are dealing with is different from the examples we provided, but you feel your rights were violated, you may still have a case. Contact our Seattle employment lawyer to discuss what happened to you and find out if you have legal recourse.

We felt heard and understood right away, and it was very quickly apparent that Rob is a seasoned attorney with years of experience to his advantage. He showed true compassion for our circumstances upon meeting him. Rob has compiled a team of bright and competent associates, all of them competent, hard-working professionals. The communication from the entire team has been outstanding, with prompt, thorough updates and guidance throughout the process. We feel lucky to have had Rob and his team represent us, and we are very thankful for their combined efforts and expertise.

"His knowledge of the law, insurance liability acumen, incredible diligence succeeded in gaining the maximum settlement"We presented our case to Mr. Kornfeld late, nearly jeopardizing our right to file a claim, and was the first thing Rob commented on. He accepted our case saying he thought he could help. That was an understatement. His knowledge of the law, insurance liability acumen, incredible industry and diligence, and the earned respect of opposing litigators succeeded in gaining for us the maximum settlement possible. We recommend Mr. Kornfeld wholeheartedly and without hesitation. He is a winner!- Personal Injury Client

"Mr. Kornfeld’s knowledge, experience and determination paid off and I am very grateful."I am very grateful to Rob Kornfeld and his paralegal for the many months they invested in my personal injury/worker’s compensation case. Without his knowledge and dedication, the case may not have gone so well.. I was hit head-on , while working as a bus driver. My ex-employer, being self-insured, cancelled my needed second rotator surgery, deliberately removed me from my job, with the admitted intent to fire me when my FMLA expired, and then wanted to keep a lien on my personal injury settlement. Mr. Kornfeld’s knowledge, experience and determination paid off, and I am very grateful to he and his paralegal, Dawn, for being so tolerant of my fears, anxieties, and numerous emails to them, during these harsh economic uncertainties of being injured and un-employed. I highly recommend Rob Kornfeld to any and all injured bus drivers who face the same self-injured suffering.- Workers Compensation Client
