Columbus, Georgia

As the recently– rated fourth most livable city in America, Columbus, Georgia is a great place to live and work. But as great a place as Columbus may be to work for many people, you may still find yourself in need of an employment lawyer.

The attorneys of the Atlanta law firm of Buckley & Klein, experts in employment law, serve the over 400,000 people of the Columbus metropolitan area (including Auburn, Ala. and Ft. Benning), as one of the state's most experienced employment law firms.

Columbus is the third largest city in the state and the 120th largest in the country. People of the Columbus area are employed in every type of business––from the Peachtree Mall to the airport and the river, from newspaper and radio to health care, from the farms to the textile mills and factories, to Columbus State University and the other local colleges.

We know that there are times when your employer doesn't treat you the right way, and times that employers may violate Georgia or even federal employment laws––in many instances, without the knowledge of the employee.

The Georgia employment lawyers at Buckley & Klein understand that many people may not know their rights under employment laws.

Our firm practices in a diverse set of employment law areas, including wage and hour cases, overtime, sexual harassment, and discrimination based on race, gender, religion, national origin, and age, among others.

We also work in the areas of executive compensation, employment contracts, state law torts, and retaliation and whistleblower claims.

We regularly represent clients in federal and state court trials, arbitration hearings, and mediations.

For the many members of the military stationed at Ft. Benning, we are experienced with the Uniformed Services Employment and Re–Employment Rights Act (USERRA), which protects many workplace rights of U.S. military personnel.

If you have any questions about you legal rights at your job in the Columbus area, or anywhere else in the state of Georgia, please contact us. We are here for you.
