Employment Law Attorney Costs in Pennsylvania

Employment attorneys may work on contingency (for discrimination and wrongful termination cases), hourly rates ($200-$500/hr), or a combination. Wage and hour cases may involve statutory attorney's fees paid by the employer if you win. Initial consultations are usually free.

Typical Cost

Contingency (discrimination/retaliation): 33-40% of recovery. Hourly: $200-$500/hr. Severance review: $500-$2,000 flat fee. Many employment statutes require the employer to pay your attorney's fees if you win.

Federal discrimination charges must be filed with the EEOC within 180 days (or 300 days in states with their own agency). After receiving a right-to-sue letter, you have just 90 days to file in court. Wage and hour claims under FLSA have a 2-year limit (3 years for willful violations). State claims may have different deadlines. These are strict deadlines — missing them means losing your claim.
