Smithtown, NY Employment Law Attorneys 

In Smithtown, We Don’t Let Employers Get Away with It.

After a long day at work, you shouldn't feel defeated or disrespected. If you’re here, something’s gone wrong. Maybe your paycheck came up short. Maybe your "dream job" turned into a nightmare. You're tired. You're fed up.

We fight for hardworking people like you. Our employment law attorneys at Horn Wright, LLP, know exactly what it feels like to be pushed around by an employer. We’re here to help you take that power back.

Your Job Should Be Safe. Your Paycheck Should Be Full. We Make Sure of It.

You should be able to go to work without worrying about being shorted or disrespected. That’s not a luxury. It’s your right.

When employers break those rules, it hurts more than your wallet. We’ve seen folks all across Smithtown, from Main Street shops to the industrial lots off Veterans Memorial Highway, fight back and win.

• Late or missing paychecks. More than 10% of workers lose wages each year. No one should have to chase down money they already earned. When employers "delay" payments, they’re taking advantage of your hard work. You deserve to be paid fully and on time, every single time.
• Discrimination based on race, gender, age, religion, or disability. Over 70,000 EEOC complaints in 2022 were about discrimination. Your background or identity should never be used against you. Discrimination at work is illegal. You have the right to stand up and be treated fairly.
• Sexual harassment that poisons the workplace. Harassment affects 81% of women and 43% of men during their careers. Everyone deserves to work free from fear. A toxic environment drains your energy and confidence. You’re entitled to a workplace where you feel safe and respected.
• Retaliation for speaking up about unfair treatment. Standing up for yourself shouldn't cost you your job. Retaliation can destroy your career if you don't act fast. You have the right to protect yourself without fear of payback.

If you need a workplace discrimination lawyer, we’re ready to jump in and fight for you.

Think You Don’t Have a Case? Think Again. We’ll Prove You Do.

A lot of good workers get talked into thinking they don't have a case. Maybe your boss made you feel "lucky" to have a job at all. Maybe coworkers told you "that's just how it is."

Here’s the deal: it’s not supposed to be that way. You have more protections under employment law than you might realize.

If you were fired for reporting unsafe conditions, that's retaliation. If you kept working overtime without overtime pay, that’s wage theft. And if management brushed off harassment complaints, that's not "normal" -  it's illegal.

We’re ready to listen, dig deep, and lay out your options.

We’ve Taken Down Smithtown’s Worst Employers and We’re Just Getting Started.

Smithtown’s tough. It’s proud. But even here, some employers think they can cut corners.

We’ve helped:

• Restaurant workers recover unpaid tips and overtime. When diners left tips, management pocketed them. We took swift action, proved the violation, and made sure those workers got every dollar back.
• Office staff fight back after pregnancy discrimination. After an employee announced she was expecting, her hours mysteriously got cut. We built a rock-solid case and showed that treating pregnancy like a problem won’t fly.
• Skilled tradespeople win settlements for unsafe conditions. Broken ladders. Faulty wiring. No safety gear. We pushed Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) complaints through and secured settlements that forced companies to change their ways.

If you’re staring down unpaid wages and overtime disputes, we’re here to make sure you get what’s owed.

Every Missed Dollar. Every Sleazy Comment. Every Single One Matters.

Every time they "forget" your overtime, it matters. Every gross comment they let slide, it matters. And every rule they break behind closed doors? That matters too.

We've seen little problems turn into major headaches. Morale drops, toxic cultures grow, and good people leave jobs they loved.

You’re not "being dramatic" by speaking up. Protecting yourself early stops bigger disasters later. You deserve better, and deep down, you know it.

Time’s Ticking. Wait Too Long and Justice Slips Away.

Deadlines in employment law come at you fast. Some claims only give you a few months to act.

Miss it, and that door slams shut for good. No appeals. No second chances.

Acting now gives you options. You lock in evidence, protect your rights, and show you’re serious. Don’t let fear or "maybe it’ll get better" talk you out of the justice you deserve.

We Don’t Stop Fighting Until You Get Every Cent You’re Owed.

You didn’t work overtime just to be "forgotten."

We fight for:

• Your paycheck. You earned it with every hour, and we’ll fight tooth and nail to recover it. Paychecks aren’t favors. They’re promises your employer must keep. We’ll chase every dollar until it’s back where it belongs - in your hands.
• Your reputation. Your career is worth defending. We’ll work hard to protect your name and future. You’ve spent years building your professional reputation, and we won’t let one employer ruin it. We’ll make sure you leave with your record intact and your head held high.
• Your peace of mind. No one should lose sleep over unfair treatment. You deserve to feel secure walking into work each day. Let us fight the hard battles so you can focus on your future.
