CLG's Employment Law Expertise

You Deserve Better Than What Happened at Work

At Carter Law Group, we help people who’ve been mistreated on the job, whether you were fired unfairly, harassed, discriminated against, underpaid, or punished for speaking up. If you’re wondering whether what happened to you was legal, you’re not alone, and you certianly don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

We focus on employment law because we believe in protecting people from abuse of power at work. That includes wrongful termination, discrimination, sexual harassment, wage theft, and retaliation against whistleblowers.

We’ll listen. We’ll tell you the truth. And if there’s a case to fight, we’ll Fight Like A Mother for you.

You Didn’t Deserve to Be Treated That Way

If you were fired or mistreated because of your race, gender, age, religion, disability, or another protected trait, you’re not alone. And more importantly, you have legal options. At Carter Law Group, we help people take action when discrimination, retaliation, or unfair treatment turns their work life upside down.

We start by listening. Then we look at the facts, uncover what really led to your termination, and gather the evidence to back it up. Every detail matters, and we know how to build a case that speaks the truth.

Some clients want their job back. Others just want closure and compensation. Whatever your goals, we’re here to help you get answers, protect your rights, and hold your employer accountable. We don’t take shortcuts, and we don’t back down.

We carefully evaluate termination motives and collect evidence to build strong claims. Carter Law Group works to secure compensation, job reinstatement, or other remedies. We also ensure compliance with policies and defend against employer violations.

No One Should Have to Endure Harassment at Work

If you’re dealing with sexual harassment or a hostile work environment, you don’t have to face it alone. At Carter Law Group, we represent employees who are experiencing unwanted comments, inappropriate behavior, or intimidation in the workplace, and Fighting Like A Mother against the employers who look the other way.

Whether the harassment is coming from a manager, coworker, or client, you have rights under Title VII and Texas employment laws. We help you understand your options, gather documentation, and take clear steps toward accountability, whether that means filing a formal complaint, seeking damages, or pushing for real policy changes inside the company.

We take your privacy and safety seriously. From start to finish, our goal is to support you, protect your voice, and make sure your story is heard.

You Earned That Pay. We’ll Help You Get It.

If your employer failed to pay you what you’re owed. Whether it’s unpaid wages, missing overtime, or being misclassified as exempt, you may have a claim under the Fair Labor Standards Act or Texas labor laws. At Carter Law Group, we help workers stand up for fair pay and hold employers accountable when they try to cut corners.

We dig into the details. That includes reviewing time records, payroll practices, and employment agreements to uncover violations. If something doesn’t add up, we build a case to get you the wages you’ve earned — and if the misconduct was willful, we’ll fight for penalties too.

Whether through negotiation or litigation, our team works to recover what’s rightfully yours and make sure your employer gets the message: wage theft won’t fly here.

Speaking Up Shouldn’t Cost You Your Job

If you reported something illegal or unethical at work and your employer came after you for it. Through demotion, harassment, or termination — that’s retaliation. And it’s against the law.

At Carter Law Group, we stand with whistleblowers. We help employees understand their rights under federal and Texas laws, and we guide them through each step of the process with clarity and care. Our team documents what happened, preserves the evidence, and builds a case to stop the retaliation, restore your rights, and seek the damages you deserve.

You did the right thing by speaking up. We’ll make sure your employer is held accountable for doing the wrong thing in return.

Support and Advocacy After Sexual Harassment or Sexual Assault

We Believe You. And We’re Ready to Help.

Carter Law Group stands with individuals who have experienced sexual assault or harassment. Whether at work, school, or within an institution that failed to protect them, we hold people and systems accountable for both the harm they cause and the harm they ignore.

Our team helps clients navigate the legal process with care and clarity. We understand that these cases are deeply personal, and we take every step with your emotional safety and privacy in mind. This isn’t just about legal claims — it’s about helping you take back your power.

You Deserve to Be Heard and Protected

At Carter Law Group, we offer compassionate, individualized legal support to people who have experienced sexual assault or harassment. From the very beginning, we make sure you understand your rights, your options, and what comes next.

We also guide you through practical safety steps, including, if necessary, protective orders and safety planning. If you’re entitled to financial compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, or emotional harm, we’ll fight to secure it.

You’ve been through enough. We’re here to support you and to hold the people and institutions responsible fully accountable.

Holding Employers and Institutions Accountable for Failing to Protect You

At Carter Law Group, we bring civil claims against workplaces, schools, and other institutions that allow harassment or abuse to continue or try to cover it up. When leaders ignore complaints, retaliate against those who speak up, or fail to create a safe environment, we take action.

These cases often involve hostile work environments, failure to investigate reports, or retaliation against employees who come forward. Our team gathers evidence like internal emails, policies, and witness testimony to expose what really happened.

We fight for compensation that reflects the full impact of what you’ve been through, including emotional distress, missed job opportunities, and in some cases, punitive damages. But it’s not just about the money. It’s about making sure it doesn’t happen again.

Supporting the Full Impact of What You’ve Been Through

At Carter Law Group, we understand that the effects of assault or harassment don’t end when the incident is over. We help clients pursue legal claims for emotional distress and long-term psychological harm, including anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other trauma-related conditions.

Our team works closely with mental health professionals to document the emotional and psychological toll. That evidence strengthens your case and helps ensure you’re fully compensated for the impact on your life.

But we don’t stop at legal strategy. We also connect clients with trusted resources for trauma recovery, including counseling and support groups. You’re not just a case file to us. You’re a person navigating something hard and we’re here to help you through it.
