DISCRIMINATION

Although our society has made significant progress in reducing discrimination from the workplace, too many employers and supervisors continue to violate discrimination laws. Illegal discrimination in Washington often involves race, religion, national origin, disability, gender/sex or age.

Discrimination and retaliation take many forms. A company might pay unequal wages to people of color or extend fewer promotional opportunities to employees who speak English as a second language. An individual with disabilities might be terminated for requesting accommodations that are required under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). An employer may fail to hire or promote an individual because that worker is over 40. A person who takes measures to confront illegal discrimination could face retaliation from an employer.

Discrimination and retaliation in the workplace are unacceptable and often illegal. The employment attorneys at Emery Reddy represent victims of these unlawful practices, and are committed defending your rights and helping you secure or recover the following:

  • Lost wages and benefits (medical, health, vacation, sick leave, etc.)
  • Emotional distress damages
  • Punitive damages
  • Reinstatement of employment
  • Promotion
  • Attorney’s fees

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission can help you identify a range of discriminatory practices considered illegal under Federal EEO laws.

If you believe your employer has discriminated against you, Emery Reddy can help fight this illegal treatment. Contact an experienced Seattle employment lawyer directly by phone, or request a personal and confidential consultation through our client-scheduling calendar.
