Employment Law

Experienced Ohio and Kentucky Employment Lawyers

At Robert A. Klingler Co., LPA, we devote a significant portion of our practice to the representation of employees in disputes with their employers. We welcome inquiries from employees in any industry or employment setting, but we focus particularly on the concerns of executive and professional employees. Contact us to learn more about our employment law and employment litigation services.

Legal Representation for Professionals in all Fields

Our clients have included CEOs and other officers of public and privately held companies; top- and mid-level managers in a variety of industries; medical doctors; nurses; psychologists; state and local agency directors and managers; stock brokers and office managers; airline flight attendants and managers; university and college professors; school teachers; attorneys; retirees; skilled tradesmen; first-line managers, and other employees in a wide array of businesses.

Protecting and Asserting Employee Rights

Many employees come to us seeking advice on issues concerning contracts of employment, non-compete agreements and severance packages, and termination. We assist these employees in understanding their options and developing strategies to proactively deal with their situations. When we determine that the interests of the employee can best be protected by filing suit, we aggressively litigate cases involving sex discrimination and sexual harassment, race discrimination, age discrimination, disability discrimination, breach of contract, wrongful discharge, and other illegal conduct by employers.

Can I Afford an Attorney?

We charge for our services based on the specifics of each case. Most cases that are filed in court are handled on a contingent fee basis, and the firm's fee is dependant in whole or in part on the case's outcome. In contingent fee cases, the client is not responsible for attorneys fees unless and until there is a recovery in the litigation. Certain non-litigated matters involving advice and guidance, or the negotiation of the terms of a contract, severance agreement, or settlement, are often handled on an hourly fee basis.

While our employment law practice is devoted primarily to the representation of employees, the firm has also defended employers in litigation brought by employees. It is uncommon in the employment law arena for a firm to represent both employers and employees, and our experience on both sides of these issues gives us a perspective and insight not shared by firms devoted exclusively to one side or the other.
