Employment law problems can creep up on you in no time and cause a whole heap of stress for all parties involved. Whether its unpaid wages, a case of discrimination, or a wrongful termination, or you're just trying to get a clear understanding of your severance package, having the right lawyer on your side can make a huge difference. At O'Flaherty Law, our employment law attorneys work closely with clients to get an overview on the situation, break down the options, and come up with a sensible way forward that actually works.
Illinois employment law covers a whole range of workplace issues, from minimum wage and overtime rules to wage payment, discrimination, and harassment. Employees have every right to take action if they are being discriminated against because of a protected status, or if they are being bullied into taking the blame, or if their employer is denying them wages they are owed, or if they get fired for a reason that just isn't on the up and up. And at the same time, employers need to make sure their workplace policies are clear, their documentation is tight, and they are responding promptly to any workplace complaints they get to keep that risk factor down.

Employment lawyers can help with many workplace issues, including unpaid wages, overtime disputes, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination, severance agreements, employment contracts, non-compete concerns, and workplace policy disputes. They may also help employers respond to claims, update policies, or address employee complaints.
Illinois is generally an at-will employment state, which means an employer can usually terminate an employee for any lawful reason or no reason at all. However, termination may be illegal if it is based on discrimination, retaliation, protected leave, whistleblowing, or another unlawful reason. An attorney can review the facts and determine whether you may have a claim.
If you believe you are owed wages, overtime, commissions, or final pay, you should gather pay stubs, time records, written agreements, schedules, emails, and any messages related to your pay. Illinois law provides protections for workers who are not paid properly, and deadlines may apply. Speaking with an employment law attorney can help you understand your next step.
