William Lawrence Teitler
Principal Attorney
Having personally dealt with a serious injury due to the negligence of another, and experiencing discrimination myself, I have a first-hand understanding of the incredible amount of pain and harm personal injury / medical malpractice and employment discrimination and harassment causes a person. Based on my past life experiences, I chose to focus my career on the areas of personal injury and employment law.
In 2017 and 2018, I was selected as one of the "10 Best Attorneys" for New York for Client Satisfaction in the practice area of Personal Injury Law. I have also been selected as one of the Top 40 Under 40 Labor & Employment lawyers in the State of New York for 2018.
My experience includes various personal injury accident matters and employment law matters such as car / motor vehicle accidents; slip and fall accidents; discrimination matters based upon age, race, sex, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, and disability; sexual harassment; retaliation; and retaliatory discharge. My experience in employment law also includes FMLA (Family and Medical Leave Act) litigation, wage and hour litigation (including failure to pay overtime wages), severance pay / agreement negotiations, employee contract matters, Whistleblower violations, and a multitude of other employment law matters.
