Jacobs & Associates LLC is an employment law firm, serving employers and employees across New York and New Jersey. We represent businesses of every size: retail, healthcare, hospitality, construction, professional services, nonprofits, and more. And when workers haven't been paid what they're owed, or when their rights have been violated, we represent them too. Employment law is complicated. The penalties for getting it wrong are serious: back wages, liquidated damages, attorney's fees, and regulatory exposure that adds up fast. Most employers who end up in trouble weren't cutting corners on purpose. They just didn't know what they didn't know. That's the gap this firm was built to close. Our practice covers: Wage and hour compliance (minimum wage, overtime, tip credits, spread of hours) Leave law (FMLA, NY PFL, ADA accommodations, paid sick leave) Workplace investigations and harassment claims Employee documentation and termination defense Department of Labor audits and wage investigations Independent contractor classification Employment agreements and workplace policies We also publish Done Right, a free weekly newsletter delivering plain-English employment law guidance for NY/NJ employers.
