About Claudia
Claudia Pollak earned her Juris Doctor from the City University of New York School of Law in 1999. Her legal education in New York laid the groundwork for a career spent in state practice. She remained in the region after law school and built a practice that reflects the legal needs of workers and employers in the area.
After completing law school, Pollak entered the New York bar and established herself in the local legal community. Over the years she has concentrated on employment-related matters, representing clients in workplace disputes and related proceedings. Her work has involved counseling individuals on their rights at work and pursuing claims when those rights are alleged to have been violated. She pairs courtroom experience with familiarity with administrative procedures that commonly arise in employment cases.
Pollak is an active member of professional organizations that reflect her practice interests and regional ties. She holds current membership in the National Employment Lawyers Association, an organization of attorneys who represent employees in workplace matters. She is also a member of the Westchester County Bar Association, where involvement in local bar activities connects her to the legal community around Westchester and nearby courts. Those memberships inform her understanding of developments in employment law and local practice norms.
Based in a White Plains office, Pollak works with clients throughout Westchester County and the surrounding New York area. She balances individual representation with participation in matters that require coordination across administrative and judicial forums. In her practice she handles claims that arise from alleged discrimination, wage-and-hour disputes, retaliation, and other workplace issues commonly brought by employees. Her work involves initial intake and investigation, preparation of pleadings, negotiation, and litigation when necessary. She also engages in pre-litigation counseling and settlement discussions for clients seeking resolution outside court.
Colleagues and clients know Pollak for a straightforward approach to case handling and for attention to detail in preparing matters for every stage. She continues to practice in New York and maintains memberships in professional groups that keep her connected to developments in employment law. Her current practice concentrates on employment matters handled from her White Plains office.
