Searcy Law Offices has significant experience handling virtually all types of employment law disputes before administrative agencies and federal and state courts. The firm handles claims that arise under all major federal labor and employment laws, including Title VII, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the Equal Pay Act (EPA), and state employment law counterparts in D.C. and Virginia. Because the firm represents employers and employees, it has a unique perspective into the range of issues that concern and affect both sides of litigation.
Employees: In general, the firm does not handle matters on behalf of employees that stem from personality conflicts, difficult supervisors or co-workers, or termination of at-will employees, who generally may be terminated for any legal reason or no reason at all. Because the firm's time and the legal advice you will receive is valuable, the firm does not offer free consultations. Consultations are, however, provided at a discounted hourly rate.
