Age Discrimination Claims in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut

Under the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (the ADEA), employers with 20 or more employees may not discriminate against anyone aged 40 or older, based on his or her age. The New York state laws provide even greater coverage, with provisions enacted in February 2020 making illegal for any employer to discriminate against anyone because of age. If you or a loved one has been denied employment, fired, or treated differently on the job in New York because of your age, the Law Office of Justin A. Zeller can help.
