Over $100 Million Recovered for Victims of Workplace Discrimination
Recognized by Super Lawyer for Excellence in Employment Law
Employment Discrimination Is Against the Law
California employees are protected from discrimination under the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. Employers cannot treat employees unfairly because of protected characteristics such as race, gender, disability, or religion.
Discrimination may occur if you are treated unfairly:
- During hiring or promotion decisions
- After disclosing a medical condition
- When requesting a schedule or workplace accommodation
- Following pregnancy, family leave, or religious observance
- After reporting misconduct or discrimination
Falakassa Law, P.C. helps employees across California prove unlawful discrimination and seek fair compensation.
Recognizing Subtle Signs of Discrimination
Discrimination is not always obvious. Employers often hide bias behind vague explanations or pretextual justifications. Identifying the underlying motive is key to winning your case.
Common signs include:
- Denial of promotion despite strong performance
- Pay disparity compared to similar employees
- Sudden changes in treatment after disclosing a personal detail
- Isolation or exclusion from projects
- Inconsistent or shifting explanations for termination
If you believe you were treated differently because of a protected trait, you may have a legal claim under California law.
