Employment law is a complex and ever-changing legal area. If you are concerned about unfair treatment in the workplace, it is wise to seek the counsel of a knowledgeable attorney who can effectively guide you through this challenging process.

An experienced employment lawyer can help you determine whether you may be entitled to damages or unemployment compensation.

This a question that attorneys are often asked from someone who just had the misfortune of getting injured while at work. It is a question that this author often hears from someone who KNOWS someone who got hurt at work. Well, the short answer is no. Generally, if you fall down at work and break your leg, most likely, you will receive workers’ compensation benefits for time missed for work and your medical bills will be paid by your employer’s workers’ compensation insurance company. However, not all injuries are quite as obvious as a broken leg. For instance, some injuries happen over time – a repetitive trauma.

Being a lawyer today looks starkly different than the traditional model of lawyering we saw just 10 or 20 years ago. Technology has dramatically changed how law is practiced and what it means to be a lawyer — whether in-house or at a law firm. And this change is especially evident both in terms of being connected to the office at all times and the increased ability to access information and data anytime, from anywhere. Spurred by that connectivity, long days at the office are increasingly giving way to more flexible arrangements. Remote work in the corporate legal space is a real possibility, as the digital transformation occurring in other sectors has now sufficiently proven itself to an...
