Women’s Rights Center

Our New Jersey Employment lawyers represent women in all areas of employment litigation. Unwelcomed harassment and other forms of sex discrimination remain a persistent problem at the workplace for women in New Jersey and across the country. While there are many different laws that make it illegal to treat women differently than men, there remains far too many women who continue to be treated differently at work on the account of their gender. Our firm fights for women’s rights to work in a discrimination and harassment free workplace.

The Smith Eibeler Women’s Rights Center was created to provide important information to you concerning some of the laws that protect women from workplace harassment and discrimination. Workplace harassment remains a persistent problem and far too often goes unreported. According to the 2016 Select Task Force of the Study of Harassment in the Workplace, 3 of 4 individuals who experience harassment at work do not report it to their employer for fear they will not be believed or risk of being retaliated for making the complaint. While the #Metoo movement has clearly made a significant impact in bringing the issue of sexual harassment at the workplace to the public light, there is much more to be done in addressing this serious societal problem.

Both state and federal law provide for strong protections against harassment and discrimination, including laws against sexual harassment, quid pro quo harassment, retaliation, pregnancy discrimination and unequal pay laws. Our New Jersey women rights lawyers have successfully litigated on behalf of aggrieved women in all the following areas of law:

If you believe you are victim of unlawful harassment or discrimination because you are a woman, please call one of our New Jersey women’s rights lawyers to discuss the specific facts and circumstances of your situation. Our law firm is conveniently located at Bell Works in Holmdel, New Jersey less than one mile off Exit 114 of the Garden State Parkway.

★★★★★
We had a wrongful termination issue combined with a denial of unemployment insurance. Chris Eibeler was our primary attorney. His partner Bob Smith also consulted and gave us good advice. They were both so kind, caring, and professional. They guided us though a very tough time and a positive outcome versus a prior employer. They were also able to reverse our denial of unemployment insurance. I cannot recommend Smith and Eibeler highly enough. The entire staff is very professional, personable, and caring. Tom Wilson
★★★★★
I went to Smith Eibeler LLC for a last minute unemployment matter. Chris, Diane and his staff were very professional and easy to talk to. They provided knowledgeable insight and also kept me in the loop with the what was happening. I would not hesitate to go to him again. John Jung
★★★★★
Chris Eibeler (and the whole team) is very knowledgeable in all aspects of employment/unemployment here in NJ. They break down the most difficult aspects of the law, which allows you to conceptualize and better understand the complexities of the NJ Labor & Employment system. Smith Eibeler should be your first call regarding any Employment, workforce, or Labor questions here in New Jersey. I highly recommend them. Brian Allen

I approached Chris Eibeler regarding an unemployment case in early 2016. Him and his staff are some of the most professional people I have ever dealt with. The process took a while, but his approach to hard questioning helped me win my case. He knows how to get the job done and I am glad I went to him. I would recommend him to anyone in the future who asks for a lawyer. Thank you Chris! Tim F.
★★★★★
I highly recommend the office of Smith Eibeler for employment related issues, particularly anything related to restrictive covenants or post-employment contracts. I found Smith Eibeler via the web and cannot believe how fortunate I am to have found them. My case was handled by Bob Smith who represented me in a potential lawsuit by my former employer for violation of a post-employment contract (not a restrictive covenant per se). Bob was professional, friendly, understanding, and above all extremely helpful. Bob helped me avoid a lawsuit and was extremely knowledgeable in this field. I was thoroughly impressed with his prowess. Hopefully I will never have a legal issue related to employment again, but if I do, I will not hesitate to retain Smith Eibeler again! Gavin Tully
