Retaliation

It is unlawful for employers to retaliate against any of its employees in response to the filing of a charge of discrimination, participation in a discrimination proceeding, or otherwise opposing discrimination.

Retaliation is a reaction to another person's engagement in protected activities. The adverse consequences of the retaliation itself are designed to coerce individuals from filing discrimination complaints, opposing discriminatory practices, or from assisting in another person’s case.

Examples of retaliation include, refusal to hire or promote, threats of discipline, unjustified negative performance evaluations, disciplinary action, termination, unjustified negative references, and threats of violence, or violent or criminal conduct directed at the victim of retaliation.

We represent individuals in retaliation claims against their employers. Call us to schedule an appointment to discuss your situation.
