At Formisano & Company, we are a dedicated voice for workers facing mistreatment in the workplace. Our knowledgeable attorneys translate complex state and federal laws, helping our clients understand their rights. As aggressive, yet practical litigators, we help our clients reach settlements that are both efficient and cost-effective whenever possible.

Whether your case is resolved in court or through negotiation, we offer consistent personal service and a high level of attention. We pride ourselves on being accessible to answer questions through all stages of the legal process. Our main practice areas involve employment law, but we also represent clients in civil rights cases involving police misconduct and brutality as well as civil litigation, including personal injury cases.
