Brown & Goodkin is here to help.

If you are a non-military federal employee, you may need a attorney to handle your workers comp, disability retirement or wrongful termination claim.

Workers Compensation


Disability Retirement

This is an ‘early-out’ option for federal employees disabled either due to industrial injuries and diseases, or for non-industrial reasons.

Wrongful Termination

The rights of employees to continued employment, promotions, etc. are governed by many laws, both state and federal. This office is primarily involved with protecting the rights of federal civilian employees. Such employees, working for the United States government, generally have the right to continued employment unless the employing agency can prove that there is “just cause” for termination. Such employees have appeal rights for all serious “adverse actions” taken against them by their employer, including terminations, lengthy suspensions without pay, demotions, etc.


The law prohibits discrimination in employment that is based on race, sex, age, religion, national origin, disability, or reprisal for prior EEO activity. This includes sexual harassment, and creating or allowing a work atmosphere that is hostile to those of a particular protected class of employees. If you require an EEOC attorney, we can help.
