J. NELSON THOMAS
Contact Nelson
Nelson
Thomas is one of the founding partners of Dolin,
Thomas & Solomon LLP. He has more than a decade's
experience in employment law litigation and counsel.
Mr. Thomas litigates a range of matters from complex
employment class action lawsuits to litigation
involving all types of individual workplace
disputes, ranging from claims of illegal termination
and harassment, to actions to recover unpaid
benefits. His practice also includes negotiating
severance packages, and advising on contractual
issues, as well as clients' rights in the workplace.
He has spoken and written widely on these topics.
While his practice today primarily focuses on
representing employees, he has represented numerous
employers - from large international companies to
local entrepreneurial start-ups, a depth of
experience that gives him an edge in litigating
cases for employees.
In 1999,
the judges of the United States District Court for
the Western District of New York awarded Mr. Thomas
the Special Service Award for "his excellence in the
vigorous representation of his clients." In 2002, he
received the 40 Under 40 Award, which honors leaders
who have made a significant contribution to the
Rochester community.
