OMDP is comprised of an enterprising team of attorneys with more than 100 combined years of experience covering the many disciplines of the law. Our attorneys represent a broad spectrum of clients including individuals, estates, businesses, nonprofit organizations, governmental bodies, public schools, financial institutions, and multinational businesses. As described below, Anthony Pecora’s practice includes Employment Background Report Matters, Credit Report Matters, Family Law, Divorce/Dissolution, Small Business matters, and Personal Injury.
Employment Background Reports:
Our firm advocates for job applicants and employees who fall victim to the ever increasing use (and misuse) of background reports for employment purposes. In an economy where jobs are scarce and every little bit of information is vital on an application, job applicants and employees are labeled as ‘liars’ because background reporting companies often report inaccurate information. Even if a job applicant or an existing employee has a criminal background (we all make mistakes), an employer is obligated to provide the applicant or employee with a copy of the background report and a summary of consumer rights BEFORE it rejects the applicant for a job or fires the employee if already hired. This gives the job applicant or employee time to dispute the contents of the report or explain the circumstances before a final employment decision is made. We represent job applicants and employees across the nation.
Credit Reports:
We also represent people who have been affected by credit reporting errors. The credit bureaus (Experian, TransUnion, Equifax etc.), just like the background reporting companies, often report incorrect or dated information. These errors must be corrected.
Employee Harassment:
In addition to representing victims of background and credit report errors, our firm aggressively represents victims of harassment and hostile work environments. Employees are protected from unwanted comments and behavior (stemming from sexual, gender-identity, sexual orientation, race, religious or other harassment) and have rights under Federal Laws.
Family Law:
And as a parent, spouse, and business owner, I know the value of having aggressive yet smart representation to protect my family and assets. If marital problems cannot be resolved through counseling, find representation with an attorney who navigates you through the pitfalls and traps encountered during divorce litigation. Having represented hundreds of individuals going through a divorce and having resolved my own amicably, I know the path to a successful resolution as well as effective trial strategies.
Business Law:
Non-Compete Agreements, Separation Agreements, Cannabis Regulations (Ohio), trademark disputes
Personal Injury:
Automobile Accidents, Premise Liability, other negligence matters
