We earned our reputation as leaders in employment law and civil rights litigation – not only from the cases we’ve won, but from the cases we take. When you need help, we are your advocates.

Litigation is never an easy choice when you believe you have been wronged and overcoming the emotion of the situation is often the greatest battle. Throughout the process, I felt as though they remained mindful of my investment in their services, while maintaining prompt responsiveness. In conclusion they were able to negotiate a very acceptable settlement on my behalf and I would highly recommend the firm. – Google review

At Buckley Bala Wilson Mew LLP, some of the hardest working people we have ever met are the clients who come to our law firm with an employment law issue. Opposing workplace discrimination, retaliation, and other civil rights violations is personal for us. Founding Partner, Ed Buckley’s father, Ferdinand Buckley, was inspired to fight for equality after flying missions in WWII under the cover of the valiant Tuskegee Airmen. That fighting spirit was passed down to Ed Buckley and is the foundation from which our firm was built. We will fight for you.

We all know that there are laws in place meant to protect employees from workplace misconduct. Yet, all too often, this misconduct goes unreported. According to a recent Gallup study, employees identified waste of time, fear, and unclear reporting procedures as the top reasons why they don’t share their experience with workplace misconduct with others. Our team of talented attorneys is here to help you analyze your legal claims, navigate corporate procedures, and apply our expert knowledge of laws and regulations. You don’t have to go suffer in silence. We will advocate for you.

Whether you’re in an entry level position, in academia, a medical professional, or a Fortune 500 executive, our Atlanta employment attorneys can help. We routinely represent clients in cases involving:

  • It is our lawyers who hold employers and other organizations and entities accountable for sexual assault.
