Employment Law

Protecting Rhode Island Employees' Rights

No employee should ever feel unsafe or suffer discrimination at work. If your employer has broken the law, an experienced employment lawyer can help you understand your rights and fight on your side.

At The Law Office of Bernard P. Healy, I have more than 30 years of experience protecting my Rhode Island clients' rights in negotiation and in the courtroom. You should not have to suffer from discrimination, harassment or other employment law concerns. I will take the time to explain how the federal and state laws apply to your situation and go to bat for you.

When Bad Things Happen to Good People

Unfortunately, good people are hurt by the actions of others every day. As your attorney, I will be here to fight on your side when your employer's actions violate your rights. In the past three decades, I have handled many employment law cases, protecting my clients against:

• Discrimination — Employers who discriminate on the basis of race, age, gender or sexual orientation are breaking the law. I will help you hold them accountable for their actions.
• Harassment — Every employee should feel safe in the workplace. If you are experiencing harassment for any reason, you should have an experienced lawyer on your side.
• ERISA issues — If you have been denied the benefits, compensation or pension you are entitled to, I will explain how ERISA works and protect your interests.
• Workers' compensation — Anytime you are hurt at work, your employer has certain responsibilities. Not only are they required to pay for your medical costs, they are also not allowed to fire you because of an injury.

I will help you fight back against these kinds of unfair employment practices. When you come to me for a free initial consultation, I will listen to your side of the story and offer practical advice. After thoroughly investigating the situation, we will work together to decide on the best approach.

Every employment law case is unique, and every client has different priorities. I will work with you to reach a solution that meets your needs. Call 401-721-2260 or contact me online to schedule a free consultation.
