Nationwide WARN Act Litigation Law Firm

Jack Raisner and René Roupinian have extensive experience working on behalf of employees nationwide who have been affected by mass layoffs and company shut-downs. The Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification (WARN) Act requires that employers give employees 60 days advance written notice of a mass layoff, worksite closing or plant closing. When employers violate this notice provision, we represent employees in class action litigation for damages in federal court and, when necessary, in bankruptcy court.

O & G lawyers have effectively assisted thousands of clients nationwide in pursuing successful WARN Act class actions and unpaid wages claims related to sudden job loss without adequate notice. The lawsuits cover a variety of industries, including financial services, restaurants and food services, manufacturing, retail, transportation, schools, hospitals, call centers, staffing agency sites, consumer marketing, printing, and corporate training services. Whether you work in a factory, office, mine, mill, warehouse, plant, depot, garage, hangar, or store, WARN may cover you.
