Overall

Great attorneys except for Suvita Melehy I'[m a former employee and it was one of the wprst experiences of my life, she was extremelly rude and nasty to all the ladies, I was told when I started there that she was very jealous due to marital problems but I had no idea how ridiculous she was.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
Suvita Melehy was born in Hong Kong. She earned her law degree from the University of Maryland School of Law in 1995, where she became a member of the Business Lawyer, a premier law journal published by the Business Law Section of the American Bar Association (1993 to 1995). She is admitted to practice in the District of Columbia, Maryland and the Federal Courts in both jurisdictions. Ms. Melehy is one of the Firmsâ€™ trial lawyers whose practice is concentrated in pursuing wage and hour cases as well bankruptcy and family law cases.

Wrongful Termination
Additionally, employees who make protected disclosures to a governmental agency are also protected from being fired in retaliation. If you have been wrongfully terminated from your job, you may have legal recourse against your employer. An experienced wrongful termination lawyer in Maryland can help you assess your claim and protect your rights.
Employment Discrimination
Employment Contract
In Maryland and D.C., employers can generally terminate the employment relationship at any time and for any reason. However, this does not mean that employers can fire employees for unlawful reasons such as because of discrimination based on race, gender, age, disability, religion, or another protected class; as a form of retaliation for taking sick leave under the FMLA; due to complaints about wage and hour law violations; when the employer has breached the terms of an employment contract; or other similar issues.
Employment Litigation
Melehy & Associates LLC, we understand that employment litigation can be a complex and expensive undertaking. That's why we take a different approach to handling these cases. Our firm is focused on helping employees, which means we have the experience and knowledge to get our clients the best possible results. And because we work on a contingency basis, our clients don't have to pay anything unless we win their case. We're not interested in settling cases for less than theyâ€™re worth - we fight for our clients and work hard to get them the compensation they are due.
Sexual Harassment
Retaliation: retaliation claims allege that an employer terminated an employee in response to the employee engaging in a protected activity, such as reporting sexual harassment.

Disability Discrimination
The law firm achieved a settlement of approximately $150,000 on behalf of a federal employee whose employer refused to grant her a reasonable accommodation of a work-at-home agreement.

Trusts and Estates

Probate

Bankruptcy
Ms. Melehy has been practicing law for over 23 years and is a dedicated advocate for workers. She is tireless in her representation of victims of wage theft and other workplace injustices and has their best interest in mind. Her bankruptcy law experience makes Ms. Melehy an invaluable asset in efforts to collect unpaid wages from unscrupulous employers who attempt to avoid paying judgments or who falsely claim that they have insufficient assets to pay their workers. Ms. Melehyâ€™s overall approach is to help clients understand the realities of their cases and craft a strategic road map for maximum success.
