Discrimination/EOE

San Antonio, Texas, Discrimination and Equal Opportunity Attorneys

Every American deserves the chance to work, make a living and use their skills under fair and equal circumstances. Federal Equal Opportunity laws and the Texas Commission on Human Rights Act protect employees from discrimination that can cause emotional harm, put them at a disadvantage in relation to other employees, and harm their chance to advance their careers and provide for themselves and their families.

If you feel you have suffered from employment discrimination at your workplace, you do not have to accept it. You have sound legal recourse to pursue damages for the harm and injustices caused by discrimination, bigotry, prejudice and a hostile workplace.

Powerful Laws Protect Employees from Discrimination.

Equal opportunity laws were designed to provide powerful tools to fight employment discrimination, provide compensation for victims and punish parties for discriminatory practices. Equal opportunity laws protect employees in the following areas:

• Age discrimination
• Racial discrimination
• Gender/sex discrimination
• Color, creed and national origin discrimination

Additionally, these laws protect employees from the further injustice of employer retaliation and retaliatory discharge. If you have filed a claim for employment discrimination and your employer has retaliated with termination, the withholding of benefits, promotion, bonuses or other tangible compensation, you have further recourse for damages.

Experienced and Skilled Employment Discrimination Lawyers

Victims of employment discrimination and retaliation must file their initial complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). If the EEOC determines that discrimination likely occurred, the case can proceed to court.

An experienced lawyer can advocate for your rights before the EEOC in negotiations with your employer and in court. Attorney Michael Galo has helped hundreds of people fight discrimination by proving discrimination and recovering damages against discriminatory employers and employment practices.
