Facing age discrimination at work? Eisenberg & Associates represents employees dealing with age discrimination, wrongful termination, harassment, retaliation, and other workplace disputes. Our Beverly Hills age discrimination lawyers can review the circumstances of your employment and help you understand your legal options.
Years of experience should be valued, not used as a reason to overlook, demote, terminate, or otherwise treat an employee unfairly.
If you have been passed over for a promotion, suddenly received negative performance reviews, lost opportunities to a younger employee, or heard comments suggesting that you are “too old” for your position, you may have questions about whether age played a role in your employer’s decisions.
Eisenberg & Associates represents employees facing workplace discrimination and other employment-law disputes. Our attorneys review the circumstances surrounding the employment decision, examine available evidence, and help employees understand the protections that may apply under Beverly Hills and federal law.
We look at the complete employment picture, including your work history, performance records, employer explanations, decision-makers, workplace communications, and how similarly situated employees were treated.

Age discrimination is not always obvious. Sometimes there is a direct age-related comment or decision. In other situations, a pattern of employment decisions may raise concerns only after the full history is reviewed.
Federal law generally protects workers age 40 and older from age discrimination, and Beverly Hills Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) also protects applicants and employees age 40 and older from employment discrimination based on age.
Some situations that may warrant closer attention include:
You have years of experience, strong performance records, and the qualifications needed for advancement, yet a younger employee is selected for the position.
A promotion decision is not automatically unlawful simply because the selected employee is younger. However, comments about age, changing explanations, differences in qualifications, or other surrounding circumstances may be relevant when evaluating what happened.
You are told that your position is being eliminated because of restructuring, budget concerns, or downsizing. Soon afterward, a younger employee takes over substantially similar duties under a different title.
Being replaced by someone younger does not by itself establish age discrimination. The circumstances surrounding the decision, including employer explanations, timing, qualifications, and other evidence, may be important.
Your performance reviews were positive for years, but negative evaluations begin shortly before a termination, demotion, or other adverse employment action.
Changes in performance assessments can raise questions when they are inconsistent with prior records or accompanied by age-related comments or other evidence.
Documents such as performance evaluations, disciplinary notices, emails, policies, and workplace communications may help establish an employment timeline.
You may feel pressured to retire after years of employment because of comments about your age, suggestions that it is “time to move on,” changes to your role, or discussions about replacing you.
An employer’s treatment of an employee because of age can raise legal concerns depending on the circumstances. If you feel pressured to leave your position, an attorney can review what happened and explain the legal issues that may apply.
Losing a job after years of service can have significant financial and professional consequences.
Our attorneys can review the stated reason for your termination, your employment history, performance records, timing of the decision, severance documents, and whether similarly situated younger employees were treated differently.
Age-related discrimination can involve more than termination. Depending on the circumstances, being denied training, promotions, raises, projects, responsibilities, or other employment opportunities may also raise concerns.
Taking action against an employer requires careful preparation. Our legal team can help you understand the facts, evaluate potential claims, and determine appropriate next steps.
Your complete employment history can provide important context. We listen to what happened involving your performance, workplace relationships, promotions, disciplinary actions, comments about age, and events leading up to the dispute.
Details can be important in employment cases. We may review emails, text messages, workplace communications, performance evaluations, personnel records, company policies, compensation information, termination documents, and witness statements.
Our attorneys look for timelines, inconsistencies, patterns, and other evidence that may help explain the employer’s decisions.
Depending on the circumstances, an age discrimination dispute may involve potential claims relating to retaliation, wrongful termination, harassment, failure to promote, unequal treatment, or other employment-law violations.
The appropriate legal claims depend on the specific facts, applicable laws, employer coverage, and available evidence.
Having legal representation can provide a structured way to address an employment dispute. Our attorneys can communicate with your employer or its legal representatives, address employment-related concerns on your behalf, and pursue negotiations when appropriate.
Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, potential remedies may include back pay, front pay, reinstatement or promotion, emotional distress damages, punitive damages, attorney fees, and other legally available relief.
No particular outcome can be guaranteed, and the remedies available depend on the facts and applicable law.
We maintain organized case management to help address important documents, deadlines, communications, and legal filings. Depending on your circumstances, your case may proceed through negotiation, an administrative process, or litigation.
Reaching out to a lawyer can feel overwhelming, but we make the process clear, straightforward, and supportive.
