Employment Discrimination

Our discrimination practice mostly involves issues of race and national origin in Federal employment.

Procedure

• We usually handle discrimination cases at our regular hourly rate.  A typical EEOC hearing before an administrative judge might require $5,000.00 including costs.  But fee adjustments may be available based on your financial situation, and based on the quality of your case.  In many discrimination cases, it is possible to recover attorney fees and expenses from the other side if you win.
  
• The first step is to e-mail us the form at the bottom of this page.   We will contact you without cost or obligation.
  
• In considering whether to represent you, we would like to review all the documents pertaining to the alleged discrimination.  These documents will be returned to you should either we or you decide not to proceed with an attorney client relationship.
  
• References are available.  Please let us know when you send the response form whether you wish to contact discrimination clients regarding the quality of legal service they have received.
