Employment Attorney Evanston
Do you know that, as an employee or a prospective employee, you have a right to fair treatment?

If you have been treated wrongly during the hiring, employment, or termination stage of your work, an employment attorney serving Evanston can fight for compensation on your behalf.
The Law Office of Mitchell A. Kline fights for the rights of employees, would-be employees, and the unemployed. If you have an employment law issue in Evanston, we are the law firm for you.
What Kinds of Employment Issues in Evanston Warrant Speaking to a Lawyer?
Any issue that affects your ability to get a job, hold a job, or progress in your career could warrant legal action. More specifically, you may hire an Evanston employment attorney if you experience:
- Age-, gender-, race-, pregnancy-, disability-, or religion-related discrimination
- Dangerous or distressing working conditions
- Wrongful termination or breach of contract
- Withholding of wages or other wage-related misconduct
- Denial of medical leave, parental leave, or other absences that you are reasonably entitled to
- Denial of breaks
- Denial of reasonable workplace accommodations
- Withholding of overtime pay
- Retaliation for reporting work-related issues, including but not limited to sexual harassment
The Economic Policy Institute (EPI) explains that employers wield great power over employees, especially when employees work on an “at will” basis. Nevertheless, many full-time employees have substantial rights, and even at-will employees are entitled to freedom from discrimination, withheld payment, harassment, and other conditions that could lead to a lawsuit.
If you have suffered mistreatment in any aspect of your employment, The Law Office of Mitchell A. Kline wants to hear from you.
