Discrimination
San Diego Workplace Discrimination Lawyers
California law states that individuals may not be discriminated against by their employers on the basis of age, ancestry, color, race, disability, national origin, medical condition, religion, sex, or sexual orientation. Unfortunately, this does not mean that discrimination no longer occurs. At the Kalafer Law Corporation in San Diego, our attorneys represent victims of discrimination in the workplace. If you have reason to believe you were not hired for a job because you are pregnant or you have a medical condition, if you think you were passed over for a promotion because of your sex, or if you believe you were fired because of your sexual orientation, you may have a case for employment discrimination against your employer.
In addition to being discriminated against on the basis of gender, there is often a large disparity in the amount of salary paid to women, versus that paid to men holding the same position. This, too, is discrimination, and it is against the law. Remedies available for employment discrimination, aside from cash settlements may include: back pay, promotion, reinstatement, reasonable accommodation, and damages for emotional distress, to name a few.
If feel you have been discriminated against, you have a duty to yourself, and to your coworkers, to bring your employer to justice. At the Kalafer Law Corporation, our lawyers understand that it is not easy to bring a suit against your employer, and we will help you through the process every step of the way. We believe in our clients and their rights under California law, and we will not collect a fee unless we obtain a settlement for you.
