Employment Law

The employment lawyers at Robinson & Clapham are dedicated to protecting the rights of all employees. Employees in Rhode Island have the right to be free from employment discrimination, sexual harassment, retaliation for whistleblowing, wrongful termination, OHSA and safety violations, and illegal wage and hour violations. We have a reputation as zealous legal advocates on behalf of exploited workers and a track record of successful results for employees in labor law litigation.

If your rights are being violated by your employer, contact our Providence law firm to schedule a consultation with one of our employment law attorneys.

We handle a wide range of cases involving employees' rights and employee vs. employer disputes, including:

  • Sexual Harassment Unwanted sexual remarks, demands for sexual favors, and a hostile work environment filled with sexually explicit material and comments can all constitute illegal sexual harassment. If your employer is not taking your sexual harassment complaint seriously, talk with a lawyer who is experienced handling sex discrimination cases.
  • Employment Discrimination If your employer is discriminating against you based upon your age, race, sex, religion, sexual orientation, disability, or pregnancy you may have a right to damages caused by the illegal employment discrimination.
  • Wrongful Termination Were you fired for reporting misconduct in the workplace or illegal activity by your boss? Were you let go in violation of your employment contract? You may have a claim for wrongful termination or retaliatory discharge.
  • Fair Labor Standards Act Our law firm has a reputation for zealously advocating for workers who are exploited by their employers. If you have been forced to work overtime or off the clock without pay, our lawyers will be happy to evaluate your potential wage and hour claim
