Practice Areas: Employment & Labor
For nearly 20 years, I have dedicated my practice to representing people in employment disputes. I have successfully resolved, through settlement or trial, hundreds of employment claims involving issues of discrimination, retaliation, wrongful discharge, wage and hour violations and harassment. I represent employees through every stage of the employment relationship, from employment and non-compete agreements to severance agreements, and if necessary, litigation. I understand that a job represents more than a paycheck, and that the loss of a job can be devastating. Another focus of my practice is Whistleblower advocacy. I feel that no one should be fired for opposing illegal conduct in the workplace. I also represent relators in federal qui tam actions under the False Claims Act. I represented the whistleblower in one of the top 100 largest recoveries in US history ($61 million). I have been recognized as Super Lawyer in the field of Employment Litigation. I have been named a National Trial Lawyers, Top 100 Trial Lawyer. I have also been named to the Best Lawyers in America in 2016. I am a frequent speaker on topics of age, race, sex, and disability discrimination and harassment.

He has been an attorney since 1983 and practices both in federal and state courts.. Mr. Margolius has successfully litigated cases in both federal and state court.

He was the attorney in McGill v. Bellissimo, a landmark fair housing sexual discrimination verdict which incorporated sexual harassment and hostile environment theories in the fair housing field, and remains as one of the highest sexual harassment awards for a single plaintiff.

He was also one of the attorneys who tried a month long sexual harassment case resulting in a $497, jury verdict.

The case resulted in findings of religious discrimination and retaliation in favor of a homeowner, his intended renter and a fair housing organization. In 2009, he again had a jury trial in a Dayton Ohio sexual harassment housing discrimination case, resulting in a $248,000 verdict. He frequently lectures on trial tactics and fair housing, disability and employment law. Disability work includes Michael Stiso v.

Practice Areas: Employment & Labor
Andy Biller’s law practice focuses on complex litigation, employment law, and, most specifically, wage and hour law. Most of Andy’s clients are employees who are seeking to recover unpaid minimum wages, overtime wages, or have been the victims of wage theft or illegal retaliation. Andy has particular expertise when it comes to wage and hour lawsuits involving the restaurant industry and pizza delivery drivers. Andy has recovered millions of dollars in funds for workers like waiters, waitresses, servers, bartenders, bussers, and delivery drivers.. In a technical and complex practice area that even many employment lawyers shy away from, Andy has been at the forefront of some of Ohio’s most important wage and hour cases. As a result, Andy has earned a reputation among colleagues as one of the go-to Ohio lawyers for Fair Labor Standards Act and Ohio wage and hour law cases. He frequently receives referrals from other lawyers for unpaid wage individual and class actions. In part because of this recognition, Andy was selected as an Ohio Super Lawyers “Rising Star,” for 2015 to 2019, an award given to less than 2.5% of lawyers under the age of 40. He was also selected to Columbus CEO magazine’s list of “Top Lawyers” for 2015 and 2016.. Andy works from his Columbus, Ohio office. He handles cases throughout the country (with the help of local counsel in jurisdictions outside of Ohio and Pennsylvania).
