National Origin Discrimination Lawyer
National Origin Discrimination
It is disgraceful that colleagues at work would ever treat a co-worker as less than a complete human. If you have been discriminated against at work because of how you look or where you were born, we truly feel for you. Just when we think we have heard it all, another call will come in to our employment law firm describing a situation that physically shakes us.
While we are a professional, experienced, and skilled group of employment law litigators, occasionally someone reaches out to us that has experienced such horrific discrimination at work that it shocks even our employment attorneys. As a firm, we rally around these moments and commit ourselves as a group to protect and advocate for our client.
If a client can not afford the consultation fee, we will reduce the rate just so we can hear their story and see if we can use our employment law firm’s full resources to advocate on their behalf.
Federal and state laws protect against workplace discrimination, but, to be candid, often not to the extent that we would like to see for all Americans. Title VII is one of the landmark federal protections against discrimination, however, it is more than 50 years old. It pre-dates cell phones, WiFi, landing on the moon, and even the Supreme Court’s decision striking down a Virginia law prohibiting interracial marriages. Its interpretations have been widely varied in its application, historically by white male judges, so even employment law is a landscape fraught with inequities.
Nevertheless, The Noble Law Firm stands ready to defend and represent employees facing severe and intolerable discrimination in the workplace. Federal law prohibits employers discrimination under penalty of law based on:
- Race
- Gender
- Religious Affiliation
- National Origin
- Marital Status
- Pregnancy
- Disability
- Age
