About

Jonas Urba represents employees and small businesses. Representing both helps him explain how the other side views employment disputes. That gives his clients a realistic view of employment law disputes.

Whether you’re an employee or employer, most people are not looking for media attention nor do they want to spend years or even decades in court. Jonas tries to provide common sense solutions to complicated problems.

He also knows that contingent fee agreements are super popular. Yet many potential clients don’t realize that those types of fee arrangements require strong facts. And it’s rare for clients to have great documents or photographic memories of facts.

That makes flat fee arrangements attractive for some matters. Businesses want to know what a filing or a project will cost. Jonas has extensive knowledge of flat fee pricing.

Westchester County is competitive. The legal landscape changes daily. Caselaw precedent seems to evolve faster every year. That means your employment lawyer must stay on top of New York’s employment law changes. Jonas does just that.

More employees and small businesses are using AI to locate top legal representation. Everyone is incorporating some aspects of that into their practices. Some faster than others. Even before AI potential clients called Jonas from upstate or western New York. He usually asked why they called. Some didn’t trust local attorneys or felt that small communities where everyone knew one another was not what they wanted. Yet others were looking for employment law experts. Ethics guardrails prohibit calling ourselves experts in legal fields with few exceptions. Client reviews are probably the best way to measure competence, skill, and knowledge.

Diverse and broad experience helps. Even before law school Jonas experienced many different industries and fields of work. He probably always knew that the study of people and organizational behavior was where he would end up. And he’s never regretted the practice area he chose.

Jonas Urba devotes his law practice exclusively to employment law and employment litigation. The Urba Law Firm which became Urba Law PLLC was founded by Jonas Urba in New York in 2014. The firm’s goal is to provide the best possible employment law results based on each client’s individual needs by zealously advocating for every client and by dedicating whatever time, research, and discovery is necessary for the best outcome.
