Deron Roberson is a Tampa native and employment lawyer at Morgan & Morgan who represents workers whose rights have been violated in the workplace.

Deron represents employees in federal and state employment disputes involving workplace discrimination, sexual harassment, retaliation, family and medical leave, unpaid wages and overtime, and whistleblower claims. He regularly litigates cases under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1981, the Florida Civil Rights Act, and the Florida Private Whistleblower Act.

He handled every stage of employment disputes, from client consultations and administrative proceedings to settlement negotiations and litigation in state and federal court.
