About Samy
Biography
Samy M. Harmoush is the attorney and principal of Workers’ Advocate Law Group PC. He represents employees, executives, founders, and professionals in workplace disputes. His practice focuses on employee-side employment law, including discrimination, harassment, retaliation, whistleblower claims, wrongful termination, accommodations, and wage and compensation disputes.
His work also addresses commissions, bonuses, equity, employment agreements, restrictive covenants, severance, and executive departures. He advises clients in technology, healthcare, life sciences, sales, entertainment, consulting, law, nonprofits, and other fields. He looks closely at the timeline, decision-makers, records, and compensation at stake so clients can make informed decisions about litigation or negotiation.
The firm offers a free assessment of potential employment claims. For defined advice, it offers paid focused consultations, written severance reviews, and contract reviews. Accepted litigation matters may be handled on contingency under a written agreement. A request for review does not create an attorney-client relationship or guarantee representation. Current service details and fees appear on the firm website linked in this profile.
Samy earned his B.A. from Columbia University and his J.D. from Syracuse University College of Law. He is admitted in California, New York, and the District of Columbia, and before the U.S. District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York. His trial background includes civil litigation and California Employment Lawyers Association Trial College training. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

Es un abogado inteligente!
Samy me ayudó muy bien para DUI en la corte de Santa Clarita. Él me ayudó a entender los problemas que estaba enfrentando. Convenció al fiscal del estado para que me diera un trato mucho mejor que mi antiguo abogado. Recomiendo a Samy a todos para casos criminales.
