Types of Employment Discrimination Cases We Handle
We frequently represent employees in a wide range of workplace discrimination and retaliation cases, including:
Sexual Harassment
Unwanted sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or offensive comments from a co-worker, supervisor, or manager are all forms of harassment. We can take legal action to defend your rights.
Age Discrimination
Employers cannot make decisions based solely on your age. Your skills and experience—not your age—should determine your opportunities.
Retaliation
If your employer punished you for reporting discrimination or asserting your rights, we can pursue justice on your behalf.
Whistleblower Cases
If you reported illegal activity by a government agency and faced retaliation, we can help you navigate this sensitive process.
Race or National Origin Discrimination
No employer has the right to treat you differently based on your race, ethnicity, culture, or country of origin.
Wrongful Termination
If you were fired unfairly or because you refused to engage in illegal conduct, an employment discrimination lawyer can protect your rights.
Employment Discrimination
Laws enforced by the EEOC prohibit employers from discriminating against employees based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, or age.
Disability Discrimination
Employers cannot treat you unfairly because of a disability or perceived disability if you are qualified and able to perform your job.
Sex, Gender, and Pregnancy Discrimination
Texas and federal laws protect workers from being treated unfairly due to sex, gender identity, or pregnancy status.
Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) Violations
Employees have the right to take unpaid leave for their own health or that of a close family member. If your employer violated the FMLA, we can help.
Workers’ Compensation Retaliation
If you were fired after reporting a workplace injury, you may have a claim for retaliation under Texas law.
