America is one of the world’s most racially diverse nations.

With our founding attorney, Aryeh Leichter, we examine every claim carefully and listen completely to your story.

Employment Discrimination Based on Race and Ethnicity is Illegal
The law prohibits discrimination based on race and ethnicity. Whether you are Hispanic, African American, American Indian, Asian, Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino, or of any other race or ethnicity, you are entitled to be treated fairly in the workplace. Your race or ethnic background cannot be used by an employer to make any employment decision, including recruitment, hiring, promotions, duties, firing, or layoffs.
Hostile Work Environment – Your Employer Must Protect You
It is also illegal for employers to create, promote, or allow a hostile environment in the workplace. You should not be exposed to harassing behaviors related to your race, color, or national origin such as:
- Racial or ethnic slurs
- Jokes
- Insults
- Graffiti, posters, signs, or notes

Coworkers or employers who engage in offensive conduct are creating a hostile work environment, and the organization may be violating Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
