About
- Hi!
- I am A.J. and I am the principal attorney at Dhali P.C
- I graduated from New York Law School and I began my employment law career defending employers at Laughlin Falbo et al LLP. I then decided to shift gears and worked as an Executive Director, for an international non-governmental organization (NGO) fighting big corporations who were polluting inner city neighborhoods
- Armed with this experience, I returned to the practice of law as in-house counsel for the labor federation Change to Win, defending employees and hourly workers like the Teamsters and SEIU from employers who were cracking down on employee and union rights
- I even went on a strike on behalf of my union brothers and sisters!
- Inspired by the struggle of working families and workers, I started my own law firm soon after, in 2008, and engaged exclusively in employment and labor law
- I have since successfully sued Fortune 500 companies, regional employers, and government agencies for violating federal and state employment laws, resulting in favorable settlements to my clients
- I am presently a board member of the “Metropolitan Washington Employment Lawyers Association” (MWELA) a plaintiff’s side trial employment law association
- I am also a member of the “National Employment Lawyers Association (NELA)” and a Board of Director of the “Crittenton Services of Greater Washington,” a local non-profit that empowers teenage girls to achieve, educational, cultural and social excellence
- Things the World Knows About Me
- I am a huge fan of Liverpool Football Club
- And I will get up at 3 am to watch a match!
- And usually with my son in tow!
- My wife Stacie (who is also an attorney) complaints about my cheering as it wakes her up!
- But our front three always scores!
- They are so bloody good!
- As a Sikh, I also attend Sunday services
- It keeps me grounded and re-emphasizes to me the principles of justice and equality, and helping those in need
- I love to read, and I am currently reading “The Metaphysical Club” by Louis Menard and “Shibumi” by Trevanian
- Maybe In My Next Life!I also always wanted to be a rock star and a Formula 1 race car driver, preferably at the same time!
- Unfortunately, both those wishes seemed to have gone up in flames!
- C’est la vie!
