Los Angeles Discrimination Attorney

Performing tasks in the workplace should not be more stressful than it already is. Meeting deadlines and making sure everything is in order is already a big burden. But when you have to worry about other factors tripping you up in your office, it adds a whole new level of discomfort, a level that may call for legal action if the offense is serious enough. Almost everyone in their lifetime has experienced or will experience some form of discrimination. It could be as simple and playful as a game of pickup basketball in which all the taller people are chosen first, or as an all-out racial or gender division within a certain group. When this happens in the workplace, it can get to the point where you would rather quit than go through the abuse or unfair treatment.

Across the country, more than 73,000 workplace discrimination claims were filed in 2023, based on data from the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission(EEOC).

Discrimination Includes But Is Not Limited To

Age discrimination – If you are passed over for a position because of your age, despite being qualified and capable of carrying out the duties of that position, you may have a case of age discrimination. In today’s world of millennials, companies tend to have an “out with the old, in with the new” mentality. This attitude could bring legal repercussions they may not have considered.

Gender discrimination – If you feel you were overlooked because of your gender, and you are otherwise capable of fulfilling the tasks of the position, you may have a gender discrimination case on your hands. A lawsuit is the last thing any company wants, but righting such an egregious wrong requires legal action.

Racial and Color Discrimination: Racial discrimination involves treating someone unfavorably because they are of a certain race or because of personal characteristics associated with race, such as hair texture, skin color, or facial features. Color discrimination occurs when a person is treated differently due to the color or shade of their skin, even among individuals of the same race.

Disability Discrimination: Employees and job applicants with physical or mental disabilities are protected under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA). Discrimination in this area can include failure to provide reasonable accommodations, harassment due to a disability, or unfair treatment because of a perceived disability.

Religious Discrimination: Your beliefs should not cost you your job. If your employer denies you reasonable time off for religious observances, refuses accommodations like wearing religious attire, or allows harassment based on your faith, you may be eligible to file a claim.

Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Discrimination: California law explicitly protects LGBTQ+ individuals in the workplace. Discrimination or harassment based on your sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression is illegal and grounds for legal action.

Retaliation for Reporting Discrimination: It is unlawful for an employer to retaliate against you for reporting discrimination, filing a complaint, or participating in an investigation. Retaliation can take the form of demotion, isolation, increased scrutiny, or wrongful termination.
