Mistreated at Work? We May Be Able to Help.

Standing Up for Your Right to Be Free From Discrimination
Generally, unless you have an employment contract that says otherwise, your employer can fire you, pay you differently from other employees, or refuse to promote you for any reason. However, those decisions cannot be made based on factors like:
- Sex and gender
- Race and national origin
- Religion
- Disability status
Your employer can also be held accountable for employment discrimination for allowing a hostile work environment to exist. A hostile work environment is one where, due to one of the above listed factors, you are made to feel so uncomfortable that it is difficult for you to continue working there.
If you have been mistreated at work based on some aspect of your personal identity, we can help you determine whether you may have a case for employment discrimination. If so, we will build the strongest possible case for the full compensation you deserve.
Fighting Sexual Harassment by Employers and Co-Workers
Sexual harassment in the workplace is considered a type of gender discrimination. If you've been offered money or advancement in return for consenting to sexual behavior, if you have had your job threatened to coerce you into agreeing to sex, or if sexual harassment in your workplace has created a hostile work environment, we can help.
Don't hesitate to contact us to consult attorney Jeffrey Silvia about any concerns you may have about racial discrimination, sexual harassment or any other form of employment discrimination in your workplace.
