Every employment matter requires a tailored approach. Whether pursuing compensation, protecting your rights, or defending a claim, we evaluate each case to identify your priorities and develop a strategy aligned with your goals and applicable laws.
We pursue the best possible outcome. Focusing exclusively on employment law allows us to deliver informed guidance, effective advocacy, and practical solutions in complex workplace disputes. Learn more about our Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York employment lawyers.

Client Testimonials
Best Plaintiff Employment Attorney in Philadelphia I have had a number of cases with MR. Gold and I have found him to be extremely well prepared as well as very civil in his dealing with opposing counsel without compromising the interests of his client.” “I tried a jury trial against Sid. Although the jury ruled in my favor, he was a masterful advocate that commanded the courtroom. Sidney Gold is fearless. The best employment litigator working, and yet still is always a gentleman. It is my pleasure to know him. His skills as an interrogator have to be witnessed to be believed. He can make even an honest witness question themselves. I’ve never been lucky enough to see Sid argue to a jury, but it would be worth the few days off just to see what could be learned from him. Excellent trial lawyer who is extremely effective in negotiating […]

I did quite a bit of research to learn this firm is unquestionably the best around. Sidney Gold had well-founded doubts about my uncommon and difficult case. It was small potatoes, as they say, but a major matter of principle to me. It actually surprised me when Mr. Gold accepted my case. I worked with his associate, Bill Reiser, who was very straight-forward and matter-of-fact about our chances. When it looked like the case was heading south, he made a very clever play — something of a Hail Mary– and not only did we win, but we came out much better than we expected. Bill is smart, savvy and honest. We didn’t always agree, but Bill still heard me out about strategy and took the time to discuss his rationale along the way. The various team members at Sidney Gold & Associates were extremely professional throughout the process. If you […]

Does Attorney Sidney Gold know the employment laws? Absolutely! If you’re looking for an intelligent, sharp, and compassionate lawyer, he is your man. It’s that simple. His staff Joan, Leanne, Traci, and Denise are just marvelous! Attorney Gold has exceeded my expectation so if you’re smart, you will contact this incredible man.

Mr. Gold and his entire staff were exceptionally responsive, thorough, and overall wonderful to work with. I haven’t been in Philadelphia long, but long enough to know that the customer service and responsiveness he gave my family and I is not always the norm for businesses. My wife and I couldn’t be more pleased, and should we need any legal advice or assistance in the future, we will come to him without question or hesitation.
- Richard S.
I am forever grateful being referred to Sidney Gold & Associates and having the opportunity to meet Neelima Vanguri. She is an exceptional attorney who “knows her stuff”. My case was not easy, but she never stopped fighting for me to ensure that I received justice in this matter. Sidney Gold & Associates care about their clients and I would highly recommend this firm, but would definitely recommend Neelima for legal support.
- Michelle D.
This is truly a first class operation second to none. Bill Rieser treated me like family, always followed up with me and was happy to answer all of my questions throughout the entire process. They made a terrible situation tolerable and were able to get me justice.
- Andrew W.
I have been speaking to countless attorneys for my case because of the “complexity”. During our consultation, he was more helpful than anyone I have spoken to. He breaks everything down, makes sure you understand it, and gives excellent advice. HE CARES! I finally have a plan going forward. He really went ABOVE AND BEYOND and that Is who you want in your corner. Grateful to have found him.
- Peter L.
I strongly recommend Mr. Gold for his employment-related services. He was incredibly helpful in resolving my legal matters efficiently and making sure my needs were met. After speaking to him briefly about my case, he was able to immediately understand my concerns and provide appropriate guidance. He quickly put my mind at ease and resolved the matter within just a few days. I would definitely seek his advice for any employment-related matters in the future.
- Adit R.
Mr. Gold is patient, listens thoroughly and is brilliantly knowledgeable. He invites questions and very concisely offers feedback. I have worked with many attorneys throughout my business/medical career and have never met someone as superior as Mr. Gold.
- Don C.
Sidney offered wonderful help and legal guidance to myself while negotiating an employment contract. He was full of knowledge and took the time to explain aspects of the contract that I could not understand. Sidney’s expertise made me feel very supported and confident in contract negotiating. He responded to emails and was able to meet / discuss things, both during business hours and after hours. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone with legal needs, especially employment issues. I had a complex case, in which Sidney did not shy away from. He helped me challenge items and I felt he was always attempting to put my needs and career as priority.
