Erdal Turnacioglu

Erdal Turnacioglu is a seasoned attorney focusing on employment law, practicing in both state and federal courts in New York and New Jersey. His legal journey began in-house at a major New York City insurance company, where he handled motor vehicle accident defense. Despite this early role, Erdal remained committed to his passion for employment law, aiming to assist individuals and businesses with employment-related issues.

In 2010, Erdal attended a pivotal seminar on handling employment discrimination claims, where a federal magistrate judge emphasized the significant role of employment in personal identity. This insight became integral to Erdal's professional philosophy. By 2014, he joined a plaintiff's side employment law firm, advocating for clients in various legal forums, including the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the States' Divisions on Human Rights.

In 2015 and again in 2019, Erdal transitioned to defense work, representing notable medical providers like RWJBarnabas Health and University Hospital, as well as defending public entities against employment claims from officials and employees.

In 2022, Erdal founded Erdal Employment Law, a firm dedicated to offering comprehensive employment solutions for both employees and businesses. His services include litigation, employee handbook reviews, workplace investigations, and training seminars. Erdal is enthusiastic about the opportunities this new venture brings to help others.
