    Frequently asked questions

    How do I find an employment law attorney in New York?

    Start with your city below if it is listed, or browse the New York employment law attorneys on this page by rating and client reviews. You can also use the free Get Matched tool to be connected with a qualified New York employment law attorney in minutes.

    How much does an employment law lawyer in New York cost?

    Most employment lawyers in New York screen cases free and take strong wrongful termination and discrimination cases on contingency: $0 upfront and 25% to 40% of the recovery (33.3% is most common), paid only if you win. Advice-only work such as a severance review is billed at $200 to $500 an hour.

    Do I need a lawyer in my own city?

    Not necessarily. Many New York employment law attorneys handle matters statewide and meet clients by phone or video, so an attorney in another New York city can often take your case. Ask about how they work with clients outside their city.

    Are these New York employment law attorneys endorsed by AttorneyReview?

    No. AttorneyReview aggregates publicly available attorney information and client ratings: listings are not endorsements. Review each attorney's profile, ratings, and credentials, and confirm their standing with the New York state bar before hiring.

    Is Get Matched free?

    Yes. Get Matched is a free, no-obligation service that connects you with a qualified employment law attorney in New York based on the details of your matter. There is no cost or commitment to use it.
