"We had the pleasure of using Robert Nemoroff for a personal injury case. His professionalism and knowledge and time he spent with us during the entire process of our case was extraordinary. Robert Nemeroff also has a great friendly demeanor and helped us with making decisions and we would definitely refer him to others."

"Ratings speak for themself. Mr. Nemeroff is very professional in his approach to matters, offering his experience in advising the best course of action, while cognizant of reputational risk and costs. He is very communicative with regard to the status of cases."

Brett and Derek took on our case and were very responsive and professional the entire time. They worked tirelessly. They answered very promptly to all of our questions and concerns. They went above and beyond in so many ways. We highly recommend Friedman Schuman.

I have been using this law firm for more than 30 years throughout my career. They always go above and beyond. Truly they care about the work they perform for their clients. On top of the depth of knowledge they bring to each complex situation. I have always had VERY positive results from their work.

I just recently completed a financial transaction with Friedman Schuman and I couldn't be more pleased with how the matter was handled. The lawyers were very responsive and the fees were very reasonable. I would recommend Friedman Schuman to anyone who needs legal services.

Thank you to Derek and especially Brett he was sweet, caring and thoughtful of my feelings throughout the whole process when you have someone who shows genuine compassion it makes the process much easier. I HIGHLY recommend this law firm!!!!

At The Friedmann Firm, our Columbus employment attorneys work on behalf of employees to secure and enforce compensation packages and severance agreements. We also help employees understand non-compete clauses and nondisclosure agreements that employers insert into employment contracts.

The Columbus-based wage and hour lawyers at The Friedmann Firm are dedicated to ensuring all workers in Ohio get paid at least the minimum wage. We also do our best to force employers to pay overtime to eligible employees, and we stand up for victims of wage theft.

Employers can wrongfully terminate an employee for discriminatory reasons or in retaliation for engaging in protected activity. Wrongful termination is a term that describes an illegal termination, generally. Since Ohio is an at-will state, you can be terminated for any reason, at any time or for no reason at all. There are several reasons for termination that are not wrongful. The only exceptions to the at-will doctrine are discrimination and retaliation, which constitute wrongful termination. If you have been unfairly fired, get advice from a Columbus employee rights lawyer about your options.

The FMLA allows employees who have been employed by the same employer for one year or have worked 1,250 hours to request and use up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave for their own serious medical condition or to care for a relative that has a serious medical condition. FMLA leave is also available for childbirth and adoption. Additional unpaid leave can be requested for caring for an injured service member returning from military duty.

Employees have undeniable rights to report discrimination and cooperate with investigations into discrimination or alleged legal and ethical violations. They also have rights to request accommodations, request and use leave, and demand the payment of fair wages and earned overtime.

The federal Equal Pay Act was passed in 1963 to ensure that men and women who do essentially the same jobs for the same employer receive the same pay. Nearly 50 years later, companies and agencies continue engaging in sex and gender-based pay discrimination. If you are not being paid equally to workers of the opposite sex in your workplace, call the employment attorneys in Columbus, Ohio.

Ohio employment law attorneys at The Friedmann Firm stand up for employees for reporting violations of the law. We take special interest in cases involving the False Claims Act, which prohibits fraud under government contracts.

Also, while employers are allowed to set physical requirements for a position, those requirements must be clearly related to the actual performance of job-related tasks. For example, an employer cannot make lifting 20 pounds an essential function of a position that involves no lifting, just because it knows a disabled individual in that position cannot lift 20 pounds. Terminated or denied employment due to disability in Ohio? Call our Columbus employment attorneys now.
