Employment Discrimination
It is illegal to discriminate
in hiring, promotions, termination (known as wrongful termination) or other
aspects of employment on the basis of a persons race, gender, national
origin, religion, disability, or age, or to retaliate against an individual for
opposing such practices, or consulting an attorney or the United States Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or equivalent state entity. In
addition, various states, counties, and cities, also outlaw employment
discrimination and wrongful termination on the basis of other classifications
such as: marital status, military service, parental status, etc. Employees have
the right to be paid overtime and be protected from employment discrimination,
retaliation and sexual harassment. Wolfe Law Offices focuses on these cases and
we have been doing so since 1997.
Employment Discrimination Cases: These cases
involve firings, demotions or other adverse action that is based on
discrimination such as age discrimination, disability discrimination, gender
discrimination, pregnancy discrimination or race discrimination.
Retaliation Cases: These cases concern firings or
some form of punishment against an employee who engages in protected activity.
Protected activity means complaining about certain workplace violations or
helping another employee complain.

whenever someone is fired,demoted or exposed to harassment or abuse that is
based on sexual conduct. We have been handling employment law matters for ten
