Employment Law

Boston Employment Law Attorney

Eric P. Finamore represents both employers and employees in employment litigation. Mr. Finamore has spent more than 20 years as a trial lawyer, and has taken on and won many employment law cases. He accepts clients in Boston, Essex County, Middlesex County, and other areas of Massachusetts who have issues with any of the following:

• Pension Claims
• Public employee benefits
• Wrongful termination
• Non compete agreements, confidentiality agreements
• Overtime labor law
• Failure to pay bonuses, severance, commissions
• Breach of employment contracts
• Employee theft
• Embezzlement
• Whistleblowers
• Sexual harassment: hostile work environment or quid pro quo harassment
• Discrimination

Mr. Finamore has extensive experience representing both employees and employers. In one case, Mr. Finamore represented a law firm that was sued by a former employee for handicap discrimination. In another, he represented a man who was fired and was not paid $100,000 in commissions he was owed. Mr. Finamore was able to resolve the matter without bringing it to court by obtaining a payment. Mr. Finamore's experience on both sides of employment litigation allows him to provide more prudent and sensible representation.

Versatility is an Asset

When contemplating a lawsuit, it can be very important to have a lawyer with experience in many fields of law. Often, employment law cases end up involving issues pertinent to other areas of litigation.

For example, Mr. Finamore had one client who was burned by a butane stove while using it at work. The employee required time off to recover, and was fired as a result. Mr. Finamore not only took on the resulting case against the employer (settling the case out of court), he also launched a product liability case against the manufacturer of the stove.

Contact Us with Your Questions

Employment law is complex, and many incidents which appear to be discrimination or wrongful termination do not qualify as such under the legal definitions. Before you take any other action, speak with an experienced attorney and find out if you have a case. Contact Eric P. Finamore to set up a consultation.
