Easthampton, NY Employment Law Attorneys

They Cheated You in East Hampton. We’re Not Letting That Slide.

When your boss crosses the line, you lose more than a paycheck. It hits your pride. It rattles your peace of mind. We’re not just lawyers. We’re people who know what it feels like to be wronged.

Our employment law attorneys at Horn Wright, LLP, lift that burden off your shoulders. We fight for workers who’ve been cheated and disrespected. We expose misconduct and protect your rights under New York and federal law. 

If you need a workplace discrimination lawyer, you’re in the right place.

Fired for Speaking the Truth? We’re Coming for Them.

You should be celebrated for speaking up, not punished. Maybe you reported unsafe work on Montauk Highway. Maybe you exposed fraud near Main Street. The law protects you.

Retaliation shows up like this:

• Bad reviews after you speak up. Your employer might suddenly start finding fault with your work. This tactic tries to create a paper trail to justify firing you.
• Being pushed aside from projects. You might be left out of meetings and decision-making roles. It’s a way to punish you without directly firing you.
• Pay cuts or transfers to dead-end roles. Some employers retaliate by slashing your pay or reassigning you. These moves are designed to frustrate you until you quit.

Under New York Labor Law Section 215, employers cannot retaliate when you report wrongdoing.

Harassment, Retaliation, HR Cover-Ups? We’ll Tear It Apart.

You shouldn’t deal with creepy jokes or grimy texts at work. If this happens at an office near Pantigo Road or a café on Newtown Lane, it’s time to act.

Sexual harassment isn’t always loud or obvious. Sometimes it’s a steady stream of disrespect that wears you down. No one should be forced to tolerate that kind of treatment just to earn a living.

HR departments are supposed to protect employees, but too often they protect the company instead. They might pretend to investigate your complaint but never take real action.

The New York State Human Rights Law protects you from harassment and retaliation. You have the right to a workplace that treats you with dignity and respect.

They Think They’re Smarter Than You. We’ll Prove Them Dead Wrong.

We’ve seen employers around East Hampton pull every trick. One week, you’re "Employee of the Month" at Guild Hall. The next, they’re writing you up.

They’ll wave a small severance check to push you out. But you’re worth much more.

We know what to look for:

• Fake write-ups created after you speak up. Employers scramble to justify firing workers they view as threats.
• Deleted emails after you complain. Important communications might "vanish" after whistleblowing.
• Managers "forgetting" conversations about harassment. Supervisors may claim they don’t remember critical incidents you reported.

If they owe you pay, you have a right to pursue unpaid wages and overtime disputes. Your rights are protected under New York Labor Law Section 196-d.

This Is Our Turf. Courtrooms Are Our Arena.

East Hampton isn’t just where we work. It’s where we live and fight. We know Suffolk County courts, from the East Hampton Town Justice Court to the Suffolk County Supreme Court in Riverhead.

Some claims go before the New York State Division of Human Rights, while others head to federal court under Title VII protections.

Choosing the right court makes a real difference. Whether you’re filing hostile work environment claims or seeking unpaid wages, we use every advantage to protect you.

Time Is Not on Your Side. Move Fast or Lose Big.

Employment law doesn’t wait. If you miss your deadline, your case could disappear before you ever get the chance to fight back.

Here’s the timeline you’re facing:

• 180 days to file with the EEOC. If you believe you’ve faced discrimination or retaliation, you must act fast. Waiting even a few months can weaken your case and make gathering evidence harder.
• 300 days under New York state law. New York gives you a little more time, but not much. Staying within this window protects your right to pursue justice.
• Three years to file certain claims under New York laws. Don’t assume you have plenty of time. Witness memories fade, documents get lost, and the strength of your case can shrink with every passing day.

Acting quickly isn’t just smart. It’s necessary. The stronger and fresher your evidence, the better your chances of winning the justice you deserve.
