Rodman Employment Law

What Rodman Employment Law does

Rodman Employment Law is a private boutique employment law firm organized as Rodman LLP, headquartered in Needham, Massachusetts with additional offices in Boston and Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The firm was founded by Chuck Rodman in 2003 as a general business litigation practice and was repositioned in 2015 to focus exclusively on employment law. It serves two primary client segments: individual employees facing workplace issues (discrimination, harassment, wrongful termination, wage and hour claims, severance negotiations, non-compete matters) and small-to-medium employers without dedicated in-house counsel (compliance, investigations, mediation, drafting, and litigation defense). The firm notably represents both sides of the employment relationship, leveraging that dual perspective as a strategic differentiator in litigation and settlement dynamics.

The firm operates with a lean team of approximately 13-15 personnel, including four partners (Chuck Rodman as Founding Partner, Elisa A. Filman as Managing Partner, Michael V. Parras, Jr. as Head of Litigation, and Samuel J. Miller), two associates, one of counsel (Pamela B. Greene), plus administrative and law clerk support. It advertises over 50 years of combined attorney experience and sustained recognition on Massachusetts Super Lawyers (with Chuck Rodman honored 11 consecutive years) and Best Lawyers in America. There is no proprietary technology platform; service delivery is attorney-driven through traditional consultation, negotiation, and litigation in Massachusetts state and federal courts (and Florida for the founding partner).

Rodman Employment Law generates revenue primarily through hourly legal fees for full engagements, with occasional contingency fee arrangements in exceptional cases, and offers a transactional entry product called Quick Consult at $300 (30 minutes) or $600 (60 minutes). Client acquisition is driven by a content marketing engine (employee and employer blogs, video library, podcast appearances, and webinars), earned media coverage in outlets such as the Boston Globe and Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly, and direct inbound via phone and website. Full representation fees are quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The firm is privately held by its partners with no disclosed external investors or parent company.
