You work hard every day to provide for your family and put yourself in a situation to succeed in life.

You need the The Law Offices of Wienand and Bagin of Pittsburgh.
Executives and professionals often have unique situations or concerns. If you are negotiating an executive retention agreement, you will need to consider contractual terms such as your duties, the amount and forms of compensation, and separation-related provisions such as the events that can lead to termination of the agreement, severance pay and restrictive covenants. You need to know your options and fully understand the agreement your are entering into.
Workplace discrimination and retaliation are illegal and unacceptable. We are committed to fighting for the rights of our clients who have suffered discrimination or retaliation. Discrimination and retaliation can bring about direct and tangible financial effects, such as lost wages; it can also be at the root of the more subtle and emotional effects of harassment and workplace hostility. Both situations can be actionable, and you may have a right to compensation under the law.
We are experienced and compassionate regarding sexual harassment legal representation and have provided resolution to numerous clients victimized by workplace harassment. We can evaluate your harassment claim, including an investigation of the harassment, workplace response and company anti-harassment policies and procedures. We can pursue outcomes including financial compensation and an order to cease the harassment.
Do you have a disability that affects your ability to work or requires some accommodations from your employer so you can do your job effectively? Federal law bars employers from discriminating against disabled employees and we can help you make sense of your legal options for holding them accountable. We have a deep understanding of the employment law landscape in Pennsylvania and are ready to fight for your rights.
If you have a situation that qualifies for Family and Medical Leave Act protection, and you have been wrongfully denied the right to take leave, or if your employer has changed or eliminated your job while you were on FMLA leave, you want an experienced and aggressive lawyer to protect your interests. We represent employees who have been denied the right to take FMLA leave or who have experienced a change, or a loss of a job while on FMLA leave.
We provide aggressive representation for workplace retaliation victims. It’s human nature for employers to be angry about employees filing claims, and employers often act on the impulse to retaliate. If your employer has retaliated against you for opposing discrimination or other illegal activity, give our office a call today. No employee should have to live in fear of workplace retaliation for simply doing the right thing.
At Wienand and Bagin, we understand what it takes to achieve results for clients. We will work closely with you to address your needs and find favorable solutions to your employment law issues.
Our experienced attorneys focus on employment discrimination, unemployment compensation, non-compete issues, severance agreement review and negotiation, sex, race, age, national origin, religious, and disability discrimination. We have recovered millions for our clients that have been wronged by their employers.
Using specialized litigation techniques and proven strategies, we cut through denials and bureaucracy to maximize the compensation you receive from your claim.
Our mission is to provide aggressive and affordable legal counsel and to work closely with each client to achieve a fair and just resolution of their labor and employment law case.
We believe that every client deserves personalized attention and quality legal representation. Every employee is entitled to fair pay and equal treatment.
When an employee’s rights have been violated, the legal process presents enough obstacles; workers shouldn’t also have to deal with an impersonal law firm. Yet an unfortunate number of wronged workers give up on their legitimate employment suits due to mounting frustration caused by uncommitted attorneys.
The employment attorneys at Wienand and Bagin understand clients’ anxieties and frustrations when fighting workplace violations. No matter the size of the company, an employment suit is no small matter for an employee. Our dedicated attorneys are proud to help workers find justice.
We know that no two employment suits are exactly alike. We take a highly personalized approach to each case while applying our knowledge and experience to achieve a high level of success for the client. Our employment attorneys have built their reputations on legal expertise and aggressive action, and are known for their dedication to the interests of Pennsylvania employees. We’ll work hard to maximize your financial compensation while minimizing your stress and anguish.
Employment Client
"I had a smaller case, but it was a huge step for me to stand up for myself. I was stressed and scared from what I was experiencing, after speaking to a few attorneys about my case, I was referred to Mr. Christian Bagin. What a brilliant attorney, along with competence and professionalism, he’s very caring and has a calming intensity; he’s absolutely great to work with. I couldn’t have asked for any better communication, if I e-mailed him a question on any day, he responded quickly and thoroughly. He was so dedicated and focused on my case from day one and produced successful results. I highly recommend Mr. Christian Bagin."
Employment Client
"Christian Bagin is a truly exceptional legal professional that anyone would want on their side. I couldn't have been more appreciative to have hired Christian as my employment lawyer. His vast knowledge of employment law and tenacious attention to his work never ceased to amaze me. He was always very prompt with responses to my many questions even when he was away from the office on vacation. Not only is Christian extraordinary in his field of law, he is a trustworthy, kind, and compassionate man who always made time for me as his client. I whole heartily recommend Christian to anyone in need of an Employment Law Attorney."
Employment Client
"Christian is a very rare find, and truly a client's best friend. Christian is one of the finest and most knowledgeable employment and civil rights litigators that I have ever met. But in addition to his absolutely stellar knowledge of his field, you can count on him to truly be one of the good guys. Christian is the only attorney that I know who will actually refer me to another competent attorney when a matter is outside of his expertise. I could go on for hours showering Christian with compliments, but let's just say that I think the world of him and I have absolutely no reservations about giving him my highest unconditional recommendation both personally and professionally."
