Our San Diego employment law team proudly takes on discrimination cases and fights on behalf of clients of all backgrounds who want to hold their employers accountable for violating the law.
We have secured lucrative victories for clients facing the following forms of discrimination in the workplace:
Pregnancy Discrimination
We defend the rights of pregnant women experiencing discrimination based on current, past, or intended pregnancies. Our talented lawyers have represented clients in high-profile pregnancy discrimination cases against large pharmaceutical companies, accounting and public relations firms, and other major entities.
Race Discrimination
If your employer uses discriminatory practices based on race when it comes to hiring, firing, discipline, distributing benefits, promoting, compensation, job training, or any other condition of employment, then please contact our premier legal team so we can assist you. We have secured victories in race discrimination against major corporations on behalf of restaurant servers, CEOs, and other various employees.
Age Discrimination
Are you getting passed over time and time again for a promotion now that you are older than most of the other workers at your company? Are you given poor performance reviews and evaluations now that you are older, despite your ability to produce quality work that is comparable to younger employees? Our age discrimination lawyers are prepared to fight for your rights under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act.
Gender Discrimination
In addition to securing the largest gender discrimination verdict in U.S. history, our legal team has also obtained record-setting victories for women in both entry-level and C-suite roles. The lawyers at our firm are uniquely positioned to understand the complicated issues that arise in gender cases and strive to support our clients with compassionate counsel.
LGBTQ Discrimination
We use our considerable legal resources to fight LGBTQ discrimination in workplaces across San Diego and the surrounding areas. Have you been verbally or physically abused by co-workers or fired because of your sexual orientation or gender identity? If so, consult with our LGBTQ discrimination team so we can vigorously defend your rights.
Religious Discrimination
We help workers who have been mistreated at work because of their deeply held religious beliefs. If you have been fired, endured offensive remarks, or were denied leave for religious holidays, please speak to us so we can help you hold your employer accountable.
Accent Discrimination
While Title VII doesn’t explicitly outlaw accent discrimination, courts have recognized that accent-related discrimination can qualify as national origin discrimination. We have successfully represented employees who were subjected to harassment, discipline, and undue scrutiny at work because of their accents.
