    Jonathan M. Kozak is a principal in the White Plains, New York, office of Jackson Lewis P.C. He is an employment law litigator, defending employers in a variety of state and federal employment matters in court and before government agencies.

    Jon has litigated matters before government agencies, and in state and federal courts involving claims of unlawful harassment, discrimination, retaliation, invasion of privacy, breach of contract, and discrimination in places of public accommodations. Jon also represents clients in cases alleging class-wide claims for unpaid wages and overtime under the federal and state wage-hour laws.

    In addition to litigation, Jon works with clients to avoid or minimize the risk of workplace legal issues, claims and lawsuits.
