Specialties

Ms. Ecker’s goal is to educate her clients as to their rights and options and to resolve employment disputes amicably, without resort to litigation when possible.

Dedicated exclusively to employment law, the Law Office of Lori D. Ecker provides a full range of representation and counsel to employees in cases involving all areas of labor and employment law including litigation, mediation and arbitration of disputes involving sexual harassment, discrimination because of race, religion, age, gender, pregnancy, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, retaliation, and whistleblower claims. Ms. Ecker has also represented individuals in disputes involving the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, and has negotiated numerous noncompete agreements, severance agreements, and employment contracts.
