Fighting for Workers, Whistleblowers, and the Public Interest
Kakalec Leung PLLC is a New York City trial and appellate firm built from two respected public-interest practices — one dedicated to workers' rights, the other to whistleblower, public health, and civil rights litigation.
Kakalec Leung PLLC represents the people and organizations taking on abuses of power.
We represent employees denied fair wages, whistleblowers exposing fraud, consumers harmed by dangerous products, and communities fighting discrimination. Our attorneys have spent their careers on both sides of the courtroom: as advocates for individual clients, and as government litigators enforcing the law on behalf of the public. We bring that experience to every case, whether it's a single employee's wage claim or a nationwide class action.
