HENSON EMPLOYMENT LAW FIRM PLLC

Big Firm Experience. Real World Understanding.

When you are facing a legal dispute with your employer, the playing field is rarely level. Corporations retain experienced, well-resourced legal teams to protect their interests. You deserve the same caliber of representation, and that is exactly what this firm was built to provide.

Our Story

This firm was founded on a straightforward but urgent conviction: hardworking employees deserve access to the same quality of legal representation as the corporations they work for, regardless of their ability to pay. Too often, individuals who have been wrongfully terminated, discriminated against, harassed, or denied fair wages feel they have no real recourse, not because their claims lack merit, but because they cannot match the legal firepower their employer brings to the table. This firm exists to change that.

Experience You Can Count On

Zachary Henson brings a depth of experience that is typically reserved for clients of the country’s largest law firms. After graduating from Duke University School of Law, Zachary served as a Federal Law Clerk before representing major corporations at some of the nation’s most prominent firms. That experience, handling complex employment litigation at the highest levels, is now put to work for you.

This background matters. Understanding how corporations and their legal teams operate, how they build their cases, and where their strategies are vulnerable is an advantage that directly benefits every client Zachary represents.

Practical Understanding

What sets this firm apart is not only its legal credentials but also the perspective behind them. Zachary is a first-generation college student who waited tables and stocked grocery shelves to help finance his education. His parents are blue-collar workers who have shown up every day for forty years and given everything they have for their children to have opportunities they did not.
That foundation is not background detail; it is the lens through which every client and every case is seen. When you come to this firm, you are not a case number. You are not a file being passed between associates. You will work directly with an attorney who respects your experience, understands what is at stake, and treats your matter with the seriousness it deserves, because he has lived close enough to your world to know exactly how much this means.

A Different Kind of Firm

This is not a high-volume, churn-and-burn operation. The firm is intentionally selective about the cases it takes, because every client who walks through the door deserves focused, personal attention.
When you schedule a consultation, you will meet with Zachary directly, not a paralegal, not a junior associate, not a receptionist with a script. Every consultation, every strategy session, and every major decision in your case will involve the experienced attorney you chose to trust with your matter.

What We Fight For

Zachary represents employees in matters involving wrongful termination, employment discrimination, workplace harassment, and wage-and-hour disputes.

If you have been treated unlawfully by your employer, you deserve to know your options and to have someone in your corner who can fight for you effectively. That is what this firm is here to do.
