Employment Law Attorney

Workplace unfairness can feel crushing. Stone Rose Law’s Phoenix employment attorneys fight for your rights—call (480) 498-8998 for a free consultation. Discrimination, harassment, or unpaid wages leave you powerless.

You deserve workplace justice, and Stone Rose Law delivers it.

Employment Law Services

Stone Rose Law represents Arizona employees facing workplace violations. Our Arizona employment lawyers pursue justice with the specialized approach your case deserves.

We serve our clients in all aspects of employment law. 

Discrimination

Discrimination based on race, age, religion, sex, or pregnancy violates federal and Arizona law. Title VII protects your right to a fair workplace.

Being passed over for promotions due to your gender, race, ethnicity, disability status, or other protected characteristic is against the law. Arizona and the federal government provide strict protections to protect employees from workplace discrimination. 

Stone Rose Law holds employers accountable for these wrongs. Our employment attorneys understand that employers hide violations as “misunderstandings” or deny accountability altogether. 

We fight to restore your dignity and compensation, even when your employer dodges accountability.

Disability in the Workplace

Disability discrimination denies your right to equal opportunity employment. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Arizona Civil Rights Act (ACRA) prevent discrimination on the basis of:

  • Race
  • Color
  • National Origin
  • Sex
  • Religion
  • Age (40+)
  • Disability
  • Ancestry
  • Family
  • Results of genetic testing

If you’ve faced an adverse employment action like termination or suspension on the basis of any one of these characteristics, you may be entitled to compensation.

Sometimes employers hide their discrimination through pretextual justifications. The employment lawyers at Stone Rose Law will hold them accountable for violations and expose their flimsy reasoning for your wrongful termination.

FMLA Violations

FMLA leave is a federally protected right for employees who meet certain criteria. While taking FMLA leave is protected, some employers may treat you worse upon your return.

Facing retaliation for taking FMLA leave is illegal. Stone Rose Law protects your rights to protected medical leave and fights back hard against retaliatory conduct.

Wrongful Termination

Traditionally, wrongful termination must be linked to discrimination based on a protected characteristic, like age discrimination. Arizona’s at-will employment has exceptions.

Apart from discrimination, being fired for refusing to break the law, reporting workplace misconduct, or breaching your employment contract is actionable misconduct.

Our Phoenix employment attorneys seek reinstatement or damages. We restore your workplace rights in the face of employment disputes.

Sexual Harassment

The ACRA and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act prohibit sexual harassment in the workplace. The state views it as a form of discrimination on the basis of sex.

Unwanted advances or comments are harassment, even if they are made in jest or after working hours. Stone Rose Law supports victims seeking safety.

Arizona recognizes two types of workplace sexual harassment.

Quid pro quo harassment happens when an employer conditions employment benefits on submission to sexual advances. Hostile work environment harassment occurs when unwelcome sexual conduct creates an offensive work environment.

Our experienced employment lawyers pursue accountability. We fight for your safety and a respectful workplace.

 

Unpaid Wages

You deserve to get paid for every hour you work. Arizona and federal law guarantee that you will receive your correct wages on time, every time.

Sometimes employers pressure employees to work off the clock. That’s wage theft, and it is actionable under Arizona law. If you’ve worked over 40 hours in a work week, you are entitled to 1.5 times your hourly rate for all hours over 40 in a given work week. 

Employers may also pay below the minimum wage. Under the Fair Wages and Healthy Families Act, the minimum wage in Arizona is currently $14.70 per hour, not a penny less.

Not receiving your full paycheck is wage theft. Our employment lawyers pursue:

  • Back Pay
  • Treble Damages
  • Liquidated Damages
  • Attorneys’ Fees
  • Legal Costs

These damages exist to punish employers who violate state and federal laws. The employment lawyers at Stone Rose Law provide fierce legal assistance and make sure you aren’t taken advantage of.

Unpaid Overtime

Overtime pay is mandatory under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Non-exempt employees deserve time-and-a-half.

Working extra hours without extra pay is a violation. Stone Rose Law recovers your overtime wages and additional damages under the law.

Our Arizona employment lawyers enforce FLSA rules. We fight for your fair compensation.

Arizona Paid Sick Time Violations

Arizona employees accrue one hour of paid sick time for every 30 hours worked. Sick time can be used to receive medical care, caring for an ill family member, as a result of domestic violence, circumstances related to a public health emergency, and other reasons.

Refusing your sick time for any valid reason, or failing to inform you of your rights under the law, is a violation. Employers may also illegally miscalculate your owed time, hoping you won’t use what you’re entitled to.

You’re entitled to sick time when you need it. And you are not required to find a replacement for your shift.

Our Arizona employment lawyers demand compliance with Arizona labor laws. We seek full remedies for missed leave and work towards an Arizona that puts the health of our hard-working citizens first.

Retaliation

Retaliation for reporting violations or taking protected leave is prohibited. Whistleblower protections shield your actions.

Facing demotion for complaining about harassment is retaliation. Stone Rose Law defends your courage.

Our employment lawyers pursue justice for retaliation. We protect your right to speak out.

Misclassification Issues

Employers often misclassify employees as independent contractors in an effort to skirt Arizona and federal employment law.

Misclassification as an independent contractor unjustly enriches employers by saving them money on legally required benefits and pay protections. Employers use this to avoid overtime or taxes.

If your employer exercises direct control of your schedule and the means and methods of your role, you’re likely a protected employee. Stone Rose Law corrects your status.

Our employment attorneys pursue the benefits you are owed. We ensure proper classification.

Understanding Your Workplace Rights in Arizona

Knowing your rights empowers you to act. Stone Rose Law empowers our clients with knowledge of Arizona and federal employment laws.

Arizona Paid Sick Time Act

Arizona’s Paid Sick Time Act guarantees one hour of sick leave per 30 hours worked. Employers must honor this right.

Denying sick leave for personal or family care is a violation of state law. Stone Rose Law fights these breaches.

Our Phoenix employment attorneys pursue your entitled leave. We hold employers accountable.

Federal FMLA Protections

The Family Medical Leave Act grants up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave. Eligible employees use this for serious health or family needs.

Retaliation for taking FMLA leave is illegal. Stone Rose Law defends your family leave rights.

Our employment lawyers challenge FMLA violations. We protect your job security.

Overtime and Wage Laws

The FLSA requires overtime pay for hours worked in excess of 40 per week. Arizona’s minimum wage laws add local protections.

Unpaid overtime or wages are violations of these laws. Stone Rose Law seeks your rightful pay.

Our Arizona employment lawyers enforce wage regulations and pursue justice for violations.
