Megan Thomas is a sexual harassment attorney and the founder of Megan Thomas Law, PLLC, a New York-based firm dedicated exclusively to representing employees in cases involving workplace harassment, discrimination, and retaliation. She is known for her direct, fearless advocacy and her commitment to helping clients reclaim their voice and their power.
Megan’s work is deeply personal. Early in her legal career, she experienced sexual harassment firsthand. Like many women, she was encouraged to stay quiet, to manage it, and not disrupt the workplace. That experience shaped the trajectory of her career. Today, she uses both her legal training and lived experience to stand up for individuals who have been silenced, dismissed, or pushed out of their jobs.
She is the first in her family to attend law school. Before becoming an attorney, Megan spent six years teaching in low income schools through Teach For America. That experience grounded her in service and advocacy, and it continues to influence how she approaches her work with clients.
Through her firm, Megan represents employees across New York, guiding them through some of the most difficult moments of their lives with a focus on strategy, empathy, and results. She never represents employers. Her practice is centered on accountability. She believes workplace culture only changes when there are real consequences for misconduct, and she works relentlessly to hold individuals and organizations responsible.
Megan has also been recognized for her work in advancing conversations around workplace safety, free speech, and women’s rights. She successfully challenged a public airport’s refusal to display her firm’s advertisement addressing workplace sexual harassment, securing a federal court ruling that reaffirmed First Amendment protections against viewpoint discrimination.
Her work and perspective have been featured in national and local media, including:
Megan lives and practices in Syracuse, New York with her two young children, ages five and nine. Outside of her work, she enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, hiking, cooking, and running.
