As a women-owned firm, we bring a relentless drive to every case we handle, and we won’t let unjust employers get away with violating your rights.

Workers in Clifton trust Cowen & Jacobs because we don’t back down when your career is at stake. Our attorneys use aggressive strategies to protect your income, your reputation, and your future.
As a women-owned firm, we don’t tolerate employers who overstep, underpay, or retaliate.We’ll hold them accountable to the fullest extent of the law.
If your employer has crossed the line, ignored your rights, or taken advantage of your position, let us take action on your behalf. At Cowen & Jacobs, we represent workers facing a range of workplace issues, fighting relentlessly until justice is served:
If you were fired for standing up for yourself or calling out misconduct at work, your rights may have been violated. We’ll investigate the circumstances of your termination and push to recover lost wages, benefits, and the accountability your employer owes you.
Discrimination in any form can derail your career and affect your well-being. Whether you’ve been denied a promotion, targeted with biased treatment, or pushed out of your role, we fight back using state and federal anti-discrimination laws.
No one should feel unsafe or degraded at work. If you’ve been subjected to harassment or a toxic work environment, we’ll take legal action to end the behavior and seek compensation for your damages.
Speaking up about illegal or unethical practices should never cost you your job. If your employer retaliated after you reported wrongdoing, we’ll seek justice under New Jersey’s whistleblower laws.
Too many workers are shortchanged by employers who cut corners on pay. If you’ve been denied overtime, misclassified to avoid benefits, or simply not paid what you’re owed, we’ll demand every dollar you earned.
Before you sign or settle, we’ll make sure the agreement actually protects your interests. We review contracts, challenge unfair terms, and negotiate stronger severance packages so you don’t walk away with less than you deserve.
Your employer cannot legally fire you for reporting harassment, discrimination, wage theft, or other unlawful conduct. If they do, that’s considered retaliation, and you may have a strong case for damages.
If your employer failed to honor the terms of a contract, such as a job offer, severance agreement, or bonus promise, this breach could be enforceable in court. We’ll review the terms and hold them accountable for violating your rights.
You don’t need a perfect trail of proof to take a stand, but any messages, notes, or witness accounts can strengthen your case. We’ll help you gather what you need and build a strong foundation for legal action.
If something feels wrong at work, whether you’ve been fired, denied pay, or mistreated, reach out to an attorney right away. The sooner we get involved, the faster we can build a strong case on your behalf.
You don’t have to put up with unfair treatment, lost wages, or retaliation at work. Cowen & Jacobs will stand by your side and push back to hold your employer accountable.
