Employment Contract/Severance Agreements
Has Your Employer Breached Your Employment Contract?
Enforcing New York City and New Jersey Employment Contracts
If your employer has breached your employment contract, such as by firing you before the end of a term of years contract, failing to pay your agreed-upon salary, or denying other benefits set forth in your employment agreement, you may have a legal claim. This includes not only written employment contracts, but also oral employment agreements.
In some instances, a company’s employee handbook or other written or verbal company policy can create a contractual right. Resnick & Nirenberg has the expertise to assess whether your employment contract has been violated, and to pursue your legal rights.
The employment lawyers at Resnick & Nirenberg represent employees and individuals who have a dispute or need legal advice relating to their employment contracts. For more information about your rights under your employment contract, contact us online or call us at (973) 781-1204.
