We have represented those who have sustained injury resulting from a violation of their civil rights in the workplace. Common claims include sexual harassment and discrimination on the basis of age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, disability, nationality or ethnic background.
Disability Discrimination – Fair Employment and Housing
Our client was a baggage handler for a major airline. After suffering several work-related injuries, the airline tried to prevent him from returning to work even though he demonstrated that he was still capable of doing the job.
We demonstrated that the company was discriminating against him on the basis of his disability and failing to fulfill their legal duty to make reasonable accommodations for his condition.
Result: Confidential Substantial Settlement and the client was given his old job back.
Disability Discrimination – Fair Employment and Housing
Two female clients worked as administrative assistants for a water treatment company at two different offices. Both were the victims of sexual harassment by their male superiors.
We were able to show that both men made frequent, unwanted, advances at both women and that the company failed to take action despite both women making complaints to company supervisors.
Result: Confidential Substantial Settlements in both cases.
Racial Discrimination
Our client, a teacher, was continually harassed by her supervisor, based upon her Hispanic ethnic heritage. The supervisor accused our client of being an illegal alien, regularly made racist comments about Hispanics and otherwise berated her in a loud, aggressive and intimidating manner based upon her ethnicity.
Our client experienced severe mental anguish and emotional distress, became unable to work and incurred significant medical expenses.
Result: Confidential Substantial Settlement
