Providing Legal Representation for All Workplace Issues in
New York & Long Island.
All I Do is Employment Law
My entire 25 year legal career has been focused on Working to Enforce Workplace Rights. I work hard on your behalf to enforce the laws that protect employees and give you rights in the workplace. And when those laws are violated, The Law Office of Ralph A. Somma will work hard to ensure that you receive the justice you deserve including compensation for lost wages and emotional harm as well as punitive damages against those who violate the law.
Let’s face it, we define ourselves by what we do. And for the most part, that means our work; our job; our profession. So when that identity – your employment – is threatened or taken away through no fault of your own, it hurts. It hurts your self-esteem; it hurts emotionally; it hurts your family; and because it takes away your means of income, it hurts you financially. What do you do? Where do you turn?

Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.
