Employment discrimination is not legal. We will stand up for your rights against employers and supervisors who engage in:

• Race or National Origin Discrimination: Discrimination in the workplace based upon race or national origin is often subtle, but can still have significant effects on employees and employment conditions.
• Age Discrimination: As employers strive to reduce the workforce during difficult economic times, some are unfairly and illegally targeting older workers, as they often have the highest compensation packages.
• Sex Discrimination or Gender Discrimination: The recently signed Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009 extends the period of time employees have to bring lawsuits against their employers when they have received unequal pay as the result of sex or gender discrimination. We also handle sexual harassment claims.
• Pregnancy Discrimination: Discrimination on the basis of pregnancy, childbirth or related medical conditions constitutes unlawful sex discrimination.
• Religion Discrimination: Employers cannot discriminate in hiring or firing based upon an employee's religious beliefs or practices.
• Disability Discrimination: Under the Americans With Disabilities Act, employers cannot discriminate against people with disabilities when making decisions regarding hiring, firing or promotion.

We are dedicated to combating employment discrimination in any form, whether it is blatant or subliminal. Discrimination may take the form of differences in pay, glass ceilings, preferential treatment for certain groups and more.

Regardless of the way that a company or its supervisors conduct discriminatory practices, we are here to see that they stop.
