If you’ve been treated unfairly at work due to your race, gender, age, disability, or another protected trait, you may be protected under California law. Our firm helps employees take legal action and pursue the compensation they’re owed.
In California, employees are protected from discrimination under both state and federal law. The Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act prohibit employers from making job-related decisions based on protected characteristics. These protections apply to hiring, promotion, termination, job assignments, compensation, and workplace treatment.
You may have a discrimination claim if you were targeted for any of the following reasons:
Discrimination is not always obvious. It may appear as repeated exclusions, sudden disciplinary actions, or patterns of denial when others are treated differently. In many cases, employees fear retaliation or being labeled a “troublemaker” for speaking up. You don’t have to face it alone.
We help clients recognize unlawful treatment, gather evidence, and pursue claims with confidence. We’ll evaluate your situation, explain your rights, and help you take the next step.
