It is illegal to terminate someone’s employment based on race, religion, gender, age, disability, national origin, pregnancy, or other protected class. If you believe your membership in a protected class played a role in your termination, you can seek assistance.

Workplace Discrimination

Discrimination in the workplace based on race, religion, gender, age, disability, national origin, pregnancy, or any other type of protected class is illegal, and you have the right to take legal action.

Family and Medical Leave Act

If your employer denies you the unpaid, job-protected leave you are owed, you can seek legal action.

Hostile Work Environment

If you are in a hostile work environment filled with discrimination based on race, religion, gender, age, disability, national origin, pregnancy, or another protected class, you can seek legal representation as a solution.

Mediation & Arbitration

If you are in a legal battle where you as the plaintiff or defendant have the opportunity to settle out of court in a private legal discussion, whether it be through mediation or arbitration, our attorneys can lead you and help protect your best interests.
