Neumann Law represents employees who have been discriminated against or harassed because of their race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, marital status, pregnancy, age or disability. Both California state and federal laws prohibit discrimination based on these protected characteristics. Discrimination can take many forms including differential pay, failure to hire or promote, a hostile environment or even termination. Discrimination may be subtle differential treatment or it may be as obvious as racial epitaphs or other discriminatory comments.
Sexual harassment is also prohibited by state and federal law. Sexual harassment can take the form of verbal comments or physical touching that is unwelcome. Sexual harassment can also take the form of requests or demands for sexual favors by a supervisor, manager or co-worker. If you feel you have been discriminated against or harassed in your place of employment contact Neumann Law for a free consultation to determine whether your rights have been violated.
