Your workplace should recognize your talent and dedication—not judge you based on your race, gender, religion, or age. Yet discrimination persists across companies both large and small. If you’ve been sidelined, harassed, or denied opportunities because of who you are, Remedy Law Group is here to help. Our workplace discrimination attorneys in Glendale have secured substantial settlements—often in the six and even seven figures—for individuals who refused to let bias dictate their future.
Understanding Workplace Discrimination
Discrimination occurs when an employer treats an employee unfairly based on a legally protected characteristic, such as:
- Race, Color, or Ethnicity
- Gender, Gender Identity, or Sexual Orientation
- Religion or Creed
- National Origin
- Age (40 and older)
- Disability or Medical Condition
- Pregnancy or Parental Status
These actions violate both federal law (Title VII of the Civil Rights Act) and California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA).
Common Forms of Workplace Discrimination
- Hiring & Promotion Bias: Being overlooked for positions or raises despite strong qualifications.
- Unequal Pay: Receiving lower wages than coworkers in similar roles with comparable experience.
- Harassment & Hostile Work Environment: Enduring ongoing offensive comments or conduct.
- Retaliation: Facing punishment for reporting or opposing discriminatory behavior.
