Employment Law

The ability to work and be paid for your efforts is one of the most important rights you have.  From this flows your livelihood, your security, and the ability to pursue your dreams, like owning a home, travel, etc. 

As a result, there are many laws in place to ensure you are treated fairly in the workplace.  However, it is still at times a challenge to pursue one’s calling free of discrimination and harassment.  Often, employers and managers will treat employees unfairly based on gender, ethnicity, national origin, or religion.  Other times, powerful employers will not pay employees money that is owed them, or will ignore federal and state compensation laws.  Often, the only way to force such employers to act properly is through legal pressure. 

Mr. Lesko has extensive experience in protecting the rights of employees and correcting employer abuses.  He has worked on several sexual harassment cases, in both state and federal courts, dealing with cutting-edge issues in this evolving area of the law.  He assisted with a major federal employment discrimination case in the Eastern District of Virginia, helping to achieve a favorable settlement.  In Michigan, he has obtained thousands of dollars in withheld pay for wrongfully terminated employees.  He is therefore well-positioned to assist you with all potential employment issues.
