Sex Crimes
Sexually explicit material circulated verbally, electronically, or by text such as degrading jokes, cartoons, memes, pictures, and more
Fraud
Examples of fraud at the government level can include that committed against military contracts, against Medicare, and against other government programs. Fraud or illegal activity committed by other employers can include violating environmental regulations, securities, grant, or tax laws, or committing accounting fraud.
Theft
Embezzlement
In addition to defending financial professionals, we also look out for the rights of those professionals who have been lied to about the benefits of moving their books of business from their former brokerages or have had their U-5s sullied by unscrupulous managers who want to keep the clients whom they have lured, but lose their financial adviser.

Business and Corporate Law

Mergers and Acquisitions
We have experience with the drafting, review, and litigation of employee and business contracts, including confidentiality agreements, employment termination and severance agreements, independent contractor agreements, and mergers and acquisitions contracts.
Business Disputes
Business disputes of all kinds can arise in the life of any commercial enterprise. Such disputes can occur at any stage of a business and occur in a variety of ways. Factors that can be involved in any dispute can be based on the nature of the business itself, its previous dealings with other companies, customers, vendors, employees, or clients, the types of transactions in which it engages, and the state and federal laws to which is it is subject. Some business disputes however, such as contract disagreements whether between business partners or between a business and a specific contractor, supplier, or client, are more common than others.
Trade Secrets
Intellectual Property
Unfair Competition
While noncompete agreements serve an important purpose in preventing unfair competition, those with unduly restrictive terms can limit legitimate business and prevent employees from using their valuable experience to earn an honest living.

Workers Compensation
Other Protections: Various Florida statutes also include protections against retaliation, including against termination because of the filing of a worker's compensation claim.
Wrongful Termination
At The Amlong Firm, we understand workplace retaliation and whistleblower protection. We also have access to experts who understand it. Our employment law attorneys are aggressive advocates who are here to help when you have suffered wrongful termination or other adverse employment actions simply for doing the right thing. Our opponents know we are willing to go to trial. Because of this, we obtain settlements that are generally better than those obtained by lawyers with a reputation for being hesitant to go to court.
Employment Discrimination
Have you faced workplace discrimination of any kind? If so, you are among thousands of others who have lodged complaints of this nature every year with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). In 2019, the EEOC released statistics showing that over 39,000 retaliation claims, close to 24,000 race discrimination claims, over 24,000 disability claims, and more than 23,000 sex discrimination claims were filed. The EEOC can recover millions in financial awards for claimants every year, often through negotiated settlements and mediation as well as litigation.
Employment Contract
Suddenly losing your job can be traumatic. In addition to loss of income comes loss of long-term business relationships, your reputation, and future earnings. Florida is an at-will employment state, meaning that if you do not have an employment contract for a definite term, your employer can terminate you for any or no reason, so long as it is not an illegal reason such as discrimination or retaliation.
Employment Litigation
The firm's focus on civil rights and employment issues has allowed me to litigate and negotiate on behalf of working people in what I see as one of the most important aspects of an individual's life and financial stability: employment. The most rewarding part of this area of law is being able to reassure employees who spend most of their waking hours working, that their promotion, raise, termination or other adverse action is worth the fight and, every once a while, getting the employers and the courts to agree.
Non-compete Agreement
At The Amlong Firm, we offer extensive experience in employment law and thus know how to protect professionals and other employees from noncompete agreements with illegal terms or unfair constraints. We also know when to tell you as a client that, under your contract, you cannot do what you want to do without risking substantial damages and attorney's fees.
Severance Agreement
When I joined The Amlong Firm in 1998 (after working at a small firm practicing commercial litigation, appeals, and some employment law), my practice became focused almost exclusively on litigating employment-related issues and wage disputes on the trial and appellate levels, negotiating employment agreements and severance packages, and changing the law from a different point of view as an advocate.
Sexual Harassment
As one of the premier employment law firms in Florida, The Amlong Firm has long been protecting the rights of employees in the workplace. Our attorneys have handled virtually every employment law claim imaginable, including cases related to sexual harassment, LGBT rights, hostile work environment, unpaid wages and overtime, employer retaliation, whistleblowing and all forms of workplace discrimination.
