Protecting Ohio Employees from Workplace Discrimination
No one should face a hostile or discriminatory work environment. To help clients fight back, we provide supportive and comprehensive legal guidance to employees who are victims of workplace discrimination, including:
- Gender and sex discrimination: This includes claims involving sexual harassment, equal pay and discrimination based on pregnancy.
- Race and national origin discrimination: We assist individuals who have been treated unfairly based on their heritage or ethnicity, or discriminated against because of their race.
- Age discrimination: We represent older workers who have been treated differently or let go because of their age.
- Disability discrimination: We help employees secure reasonable accommodations and fight acts of disability discrimination based on a physical or mental disability.
The core reason our discrimination attorneys focus exclusively on labor, employment and violations of civil rights is to help our Ohio clients who are going through tough times. Our record of success proves that we can make a difference in the outcome of a case and in your life. We are serious about protecting your civil and employment rights, and are ready to stand with you.
