Peter Cogan

When you are treated unfairly at the workplace, you need experienced and able representation to secure your right to justice. Employers sometimes discriminate against employees based upon gender, age, race, disability, religion, or other protected classifications. Employers also may retaliate against employees who complain about discrimination or against employees who blow the whistle on other types of illegal conduct. Some employers try to skirt the law and fail to pay you for all hours worked, or fail to pay overtime compensation, or try to coerce you to perform illegal or unethical actions. When employers engage in this type of illegal behavior, you need a civil rights attorney or employment attorney to represent you. When your employer violates the law to fire you, you may feel angry, defenseless and unprepared for the fallout. We believe that employers are not above the law, and that employees can stand up for their rights and be justly compensated for employer wrongdoing. Attorney Peter Cogan, with over 25 years of experience representing employees in Western Washington, will advocate for you to win the compensation you are owed. Although we cannot undo the embarrassment, pain and financial duress, we will use our resources to represent you fiercely in negotiation and litigation. Wrongful termination is just one of the scenarios in which we are able to help. Our law office can also assist you if you are a victim of discrimination, missing or inaccurate paychecks, or retaliation. If you are denied reasonable accommodations or unemployment benefits or are damaged by a broken contract, or a noncompetition agreement we are there to help. We are highly experienced in a diverse array of employment law conflicts and will always take the time to evaluate your specific case and provide skilled, effective representation. We are experienced at representing employees who have been misclassified and underpaid, and in obtaining justice for employees where employers have been requiring them to work "off the clock".
