Disability Discrimination Attorneys in
Southern California
State and Federal laws provide numerous
protections for disabled employees. Under the
California Fair Employment and Housing Act
(FEHA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA), employers are expressly prohibited from
discriminating against employees who suffer
from diagnosed physical or mental disabilities
that impact or limit an individual’s quality of life.
If a coworker or third party vendor with whom
your employer does business is engaging in
discriminatory behavior such as harassment
based solely on the fact that you are disabled, it
must be reported to your human resources
department immediately. Should your
employer fail to take action to correct the
prohibited conduct, they are in direct violation
of both the FEHA and the ADA and may be held
financially responsible for the harms you have
sustained.
•
Broadly defined under the law, Disability
Discrimination may take numerous forms,
including but not limited to:
•
Refusal to Hire Disabled Workers

In addition to representing those who have
dealt with Disability Discrimination in the
Workplace, Southern California Workplace
Discrimination Attorneys with Protection Law
Group also represent those who have faced
other forms of Employment Discrimination.
Employers have a duty to provide a safe work
environment free from discrimination. As such,
they may also be found liable for engaging in
discrimination based on:
•
Age (Employees who are 40+ years old)
•
Gender
•
Nationality
•
Pregnancy
•
Race
•
Religion
•
Sexual Orientation
As with Disability Discrimination, if you have
been discriminated against by your coworkers,
have made your employer aware of the
behavior and they’ve refused to immediately
stop the conduct, your current or former
employer may held legally responsible for their
failure to act.
•
Examples of Employment Discrimination
must be based on one of the preceding factors,
and include but aren’t limited to:
•
Constructive Termination & Wrongful
Termination

•
Openly Displaying Offensive or

•
Engaging in Retaliation for Reporting
Discrimination
•
Unwarranted Pay Cut, Demotion or
Reduction in Hours
•
Unwarranted Refusal to Provide
Opportunities for Advancement
For conduct to be deemed discriminatory, it
must be continuous and ongoing. A single
action or comment will not typically result in a
settlement or judgment unless it is so
outrageous that it merits monetary
compensation.
Employment Discrimination cases are often
highly complex, especially in situations where
the discrimination is subtle. Therefore, it is
imperative that you retain a skilled Southern
