Tad Roumayah

Tad Roumayah focuses his practice primarily on employment litigation, representing employees who have encountered discrimination and retaliation, including violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Family Medical Leave Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act, wrongful discharge, whistleblower protection claims, wage and hour violations and other employment issues and disputes. Additionally, he represents people and businesses involved in contract disputes and business torts, and advises companies on their human resource policies, procedures, and other employment-related matters.

Tad has been successful in litigating employment cases in both state and federal court. That said, he also appreciates that each of his clients has unique needs. That is why Tad frequently works to achieve his clients’ goals through alternative processes such as mediation, facilitation and severance negotiations, without incurring the additional time and expense associated with litigation
