Racial Discrimination Attorney Los Angeles

Being treated differently at work because of your race is hard, and you should not face it alone. Eisenberg & Associates offers a Los Angeles racial discrimination attorney who will listen. If you were passed over, paid less, harassed, demoted, or let go because of race, color, ancestry, or national origin, we can help you understand your legal rights.

Understanding Racial Discrimination in the Workplace

It occurs when an employer treats an employee or job applicant worse because of race, color, ancestry, or another protected trait closely connected to race.

In big Los Angeles workplaces, bias hides easily. Some managers use openly racial language or jokes. Others rely on layers of managers, vague standards, or “culture fit” language, so the real reason for a poor review, a missed promotion, or a lost shift stays quite unclear.

Bias can appear during hiring, while you work, when you seek advancement, or when the job ends.

Signs may include employers who:

  • Turn down your application because of your race.
  • Choose a less qualified coworker for advancement because of race.
  • Pay you less than coworkers of another race doing similar work.
  • Assign you the worst shifts, tasks, or responsibilities.
  • Leave you out of training that helps others advance.
  • Terminate or demote you because of your race.
  • Write unfair or untrue reviews about you.
  • Tolerate racial slurs, insults, or offensive jokes at work.
  • Discipline workers of different races unequally for the same mistake.
  • Retaliate against you for reporting racial bias at work.

Can I still have a racial discrimination case without hearing a slur?

Bias does not always come with a racial slur or an openly racist remark.

Patterns such as unequal treatment, uneven discipline, lower pay, missed promotions, questionable decisions, or other evidence may all be important.

A lawyer can look closely at what happened and explain whether you may have a legal claim.

Depending on the details, you may have the ability to bring a legal claim against your employer.

How a claim proceeds and the deadlines can depend on which law applies and the specific kind of discrimination involved.

Los Angeles Civil Rights Department has stated that, in general, a workplace discrimination complaint should be filed within three years of the alleged act, though other timelines may apply in certain situations.

Since deadlines may affect your rights, speaking with one of our attorneys about your specific situation is important.

What if I was fired right after reporting discrimination at work?

A retaliation claim may be possible, depending on what happened.

Los Angeles law shields employees from certain kinds of retaliation for using rights covered by FEHA.

If treatment changed after you spoke up, note when you complained, what you said, who heard it, and what followed. Share those details with us.
