In May of 2014, I founded Cordello Law PLLC to focus on labor and employment litigation on behalf of employees throughout the Rochester, New York area. Since that time, my law firm has been instrumental in obtaining significant financial recoveries for clients through the litigation and negotiation of employments disputes.
I received my Juris Doctor degree from New York Law School (NYLS). NYLS was founded in 1891 and is one of the oldest independent law schools in the country.
NYLS has also been named a top school by preLaw magazine in family law, business law, human rights, criminal law, tax, IP, alternative dispute resolution, trial advocacy and litigation. Its other popular programs include real estate, fashion, international law, and financial services law, among others.
When you come to me with an employment law issue, I understand that it can be a difficult and stressful time for you. That’s why I create a safe and confidential space for you to openly discuss your concerns with me. With over 20 years of experience as an employment law specialist, there is practically nothing I haven’t seen before, so I can offer you the best guidance possible. Unlike at other law firms where you may be passed off to paralegals or secretaries, you’ll work directly with me. I will listen carefully to your concerns and use my experience to provide you with the guidance you need to make informed decisions about your legal options. Together, we’ll work to achieve the best possible outcome for your case.
Justin gave me great advice in a difficult situation. He was very down to earth and didn't sugar coat things (which is just what I needed). He helped me make decisions based on the facts instead of emotions. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs legal help in the future.

Mr. Cordello was very professional, knowledgeable and compassionate about my employment situation. He very promptly told me his plan of action and goals for our one hour meeting. He proceeded to meet all of those goals. Mr. Cordello also gave me time to ask any questions I may have. He exceeded all of my expectations as a lawyer. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of an employment lawyer.

I recently engaged Justin and my experience was exceptional. He responded to me within an hour of my initial email and I was able to meet with him within 2 business days. Fees are reasonable, but most of all, Justin listens, really listens and he arrived to our meeting completely prepared by reviewing all the background available. Justin provide solid legal advice and delivered it professionally and in a personable way. I highly recommend Justin for labor matters.
