EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMINATION

Are you being treated unfairly at work?

SCROLL DOWN

Am I protected?

Employers throughout New York and the United States are legally obligated to adhere to employment discrimination laws at both the state and federal levels. These laws pertain to both public and private sector employees. Unfortunately, many Americans still experience workplace discrimination in some form.

Do I have an employment discrimination case?

If you believe that you are being treated differently or feel that you’re being harassed at work, you may have a discrimination case. Employment discrimination commonly happens behind closed doors and is covered up, making it difficult to prove. We’ve also seen situations where an employer is unaware that what they are doing could be considered discrimination.

In general, employers can’t discriminate against employees in matters involving:
  • Hiring and firing
  • Promotion, demotion, or transfer
  • Compensation
  • Assignment or classification of employees
  • Layoff, reduction in force (RIF), or forced retirement
  • Job advertisements, recruitment, or testing
  • Use of company facilities
  • Training and apprenticeship programs
  • Retirement plans, health/medical insurance, and fringe benefits
  • Disability leave and severance

What They Are Saying

My attorney made me feel very relieved on my first visit. He took the time to explain step-by-step what I would go through and told me to relax and that I would be in good hands.

This settlement will allow me to open my own business to support my family since I will not physically be able to continue my career as a roofer. And the large payment I receive when I reach 60 will fund my retirement.
