Why Choose Bearden Trial Lawyers for Your Employment Litigation Case?

The workplace should be a place of fairness, dignity, and opportunity. When an employer violates your rights — whether through discrimination, retaliation, harassment, or wrongful termination — the power imbalance can feel impossible to overcome. It isn't. Bearden Trial Lawyers levels the playing field. We take on employers of every size, from small businesses to major corporations, and we fight to hold them accountable for every harm they've caused. If your employer wronged you, we're ready to go to work.

We handle a full range of employment litigation matters, including:

Wrongful Termination

If you were fired for an illegal reason — including discrimination, retaliation, or whistleblowing — you may have a powerful claim. We investigate the circumstances of your termination and pursue the full compensation you are owed.

Workplace Discrimination

No one should be treated differently because of their race, gender, age, religion, disability, or national origin. We represent employees who have been passed over, demoted, or mistreated because of who they are.

Sexual Harassment

Unwanted advances, inappropriate conduct, hostile work environments, and quid pro quo harassment are serious violations of your rights. We investigate every detail and fight aggressively for justice on your behalf.

Retaliation

If you reported misconduct, filed a complaint, or exercised your legal rights and your employer punished you for it, that retaliation is illegal. We hold employers accountable for every act of retribution against employees who had the courage to speak up.

Wage & Hour Violations

When employers fail to pay overtime, misclassify employees, or unlawfully withhold earned wages, workers pay the price. We pursue full recovery of what you are owed.

Hostile Work Environment

When pervasive harassment or discriminatory conduct makes it impossible to do your job, you have legal options. We build compelling cases that document the full scope of what our clients endured and demand accountability.

Whistleblower Claims

If you reported illegal activity within your organization and faced consequences for doing the right thing, we stand with you and fight to protect your career and your livelihood.

From the Team-

Employment cases are personal in a way that's different from anything else we handle. These are people who just wanted to go to work, provide for their families, and be treated fairly. When that gets taken from them — when they're humiliated, pushed out, or punished for doing the right thing — it leaves a mark that goes beyond the legal claim. I work closely with every one of our employment clients to make sure they feel heard and supported through every step of this process. You deserve to have someone in your corner who genuinely cares about what happens to you. That's what we're here for.

-Vicki Taurassi
