Experienced Attorneys
for North Carolina Employees
Thanks in large part to new laws regarding employee rights and an increase in employer awareness of the issues — most employees will never need to hire an employment law attorney.
On the other hand, discrimination and other types of unfair treatment in the workplace do still happen. More importantly, if something like that has happened to you or a member of your family — know that when it comes to taking on Goliath, an experienced employment law attorney is a pretty nice rock to have in your back pocket.
At Van Camp, Meacham & Newman, we have fought to protect the rights of employees for more than 30 years and are equipped to handle almost any type of employment law issue or dispute, including:
- Discrimination based on age, race, religion, national origin or status as a member of any other protected class
- Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) claims
- Sexual harassment and sexual assaults in the workplace
- Hostile work environments
- Wage and hour claims
- Unpaid overtime
- Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) claims
- Employee benefits/Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)
- Retaliation after filing a workers' compensation claim
- Whistleblower retaliation
- Wrongful termination
- Employments contracts (non-compete agreements, restrictive covenants, severance agreements, etc.)
- Employment law litigation and appeals
Discrimination Claims
Most employees come to our employment law attorneys because they feel they have been discriminated against in some way.
Under the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), the Equal Pay Act of 1963 (EPA), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA), the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Civil Rights Act of 1991 — it is illegal to discriminate against an employee or prospective employee based on age, disability, equal pay, national origin, pregnancy, race, religion, sex, or to engage in sexual harassment.
Our lawyers have a thorough knowledge of the state and federal laws that govern employer-employee relationships and a long track record of successful results in representing people who've felt the sting of discrimination from employers in the Pinehurst area and throughout North Carolina.
