Our attorneys at law also handle sexual harassment and "whistleblower" cases who blow the whistle on their employers for violation of employment discrimination law and/or fraud laws. Employment discrimination law is an important element in the U.S. legal system.  It is against the law for employment discrimination to occur on the basis of race, sex, religion, national origin, physical disability, or age.

 

Under the law, employment discrimination refers to bias in hiring, promotion, job assignment, firing, compensation, and different forms of harassment.  The body of employment discrimination law consists of federal and state statutes, although the U.S. Constitution and various state constitutions also provide some protection against discrimination in employment.

 

If you think your employer has violated employment discrimination law, please fill out our employment discrimination consultation form and one of our attorneys at law will reply immediately.
