Employment Law Practice Areas

Wrongful Termination, Discrimination, and Harassment

Advice when a firing may violate law or contract

Workplace Discrimination

Cases involving hiring, firing, pay, and promotion bias.

Sexual Harassment

Hostile work environment and quid pro quo claims.

We also advise on retaliation, hostile environment, and wage-and-hour concerns, and coordinate with agency processes when a charge is required.

Wrongful Termination

At-Will Employment Has Limits

Nebraska is an at-will state, but employers cannot fire workers for illegal reasons-such as discrimination, retaliation, whistleblowing, or in violation of a written contract; if you suspect wrongful termination, act quickly to document facts and deadlines while we evaluate strategy and potential remedies.

Discrimination & Harassment

Equal Treatment Is The Law

Federal law and Nebraska's Fair Employment Practice Act prohibit discrimination based on protected traits and ban sexual harassment at work; Decker Law Offices handles investigations, demand letters, and agency filings, guiding you on documentation, timelines, and whether to pursue settlement or litigation.

Employer Advising (When Needed)

Policies, Training, And Investigations

For Omaha small businesses seeking to do things right, we can help with policy reviews, employee handbooks, internal investigations, and responses to complaints-practical steps that reduce risk and promote compliance without heavy jargon.
