Fresno County Workplace Discrimination Lawyers: Expert Labor Law Representation!

            We are your dedicated Fresno job discrimination lawyers, specializing exclusively in employee representation. We handle all facets of labor law, from wrongful termination to retaliation under California Labor Code Sections 132a and 1102.5. Unlike firms that only handle certain types of cases, our focus is comprehensive employee advocacy.       

            The Employment Lawyers Group is committed to the workforce and employee rights. We accept job discrimination cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no legal fee unless we win. We also advance all court costs, allowing you to seek justice without financial burden.       

            Workplace discrimination is actionable. Call (818) 783-7300 to speak with a labor lawyer about employment laws.       

Unmatched Experience in Harassment and Wrongful Termination       

            We possess deep knowledge of employee laws. We have successfully handled hundreds of workplace harassment cases and over 1,000 wrongful termination cases. Our exclusive focus on employment law—never representing employers—ensures our clients receive dedicated and specialized counsel.       

Sexual Harassment: Ending Hostile Work Environments       

            Firm owner, Karl Gerber, is passionate about combating sexual harassment. Hostile work environments based on gender, sex, or sexual favors are illegal. Harassment often involves power dynamics and does not always stop after an employee complains.       

            If you have complained about harassment and the misconduct continues, call (818) 783-7300 to find out your next step with a Fresno Employment Lawyer.       

Why Choose an Action-Oriented Discrimination Lawyer?       

            Not all labor attorneys and employment law firms are equal. Many are inexperienced or unwilling to pursue your work discrimination case in court. A lawyer who won't go the distance is unlikely to achieve the best results. We are ready to build your case for trial, ensuring the power of job discrimination laws is fully leveraged.       

            Important: Experienced job discrimination lawyers do not recommend filing an EEOC complaint, as it often pursues weaker Federal job discrimination laws. Consult with us first to determine the most effective legal path under robust state laws.       

Protected Characteristics: Types of Illegal Discrimination in California (FEHA)

• Sexual Orientation
• Marital Status

Race Discrimination by California Employers       

            Despite California's vast racial diversity, race discrimination remains a pervasive problem. We are prepared to evaluate all forms of unlawful workplace harassment and discrimination, including "reverse discrimination" cases.       

Protections Cover:       

• Failure to hire or promote because of race.
• Racial harassment, including subjection to racial and ethnic slurs.
• Requiring applicants to provide their race during the hiring process.
• Subjection to unfair or inequitable working conditions.
• Retaliation for reporting race discrimination, including wrongful termination.

          Employers are legally required to stop race discrimination and harassment. We support clients with the full weight of our knowledge and resources to recover compensation for lost income, emotional distress, and other damages.       

National Origin Discrimination in the Workplace       

            Workers who look, speak, or dress differently often face harassment and discrimination based on their national origin, ethnic background, or religion. This is illegal under both federal and California state employment laws.       

We handle claims involving:

• Wrongful firing or denied promotion because of national origin or heritage.
• Subjection to a pattern of offensive treatment, name-calling, or the circulation of offensive materials.
• Being fired or forced to quit for reporting discrimination or cooperating with an investigation.
       

            Our firm's founder, Karl Gerber, has handled numerous cases involving national origin discrimination. We offer skilled representation on a full contingency basis. We have Spanish speakers available and represent people of any national origin, statewide in California.       

Action-Oriented Representation for Seriously Harassed Workers       

            The severity of your suffering matters. Our firm focuses on pervasive, harmful harassment that makes working life intolerable or results in wrongful termination when employees speak out.       

            We thoroughly evaluate all claims to determine whether employer actions have violated laws prohibiting sexual harassment, race discrimination, or retaliation. We will provide honest guidance on the worth and viability of your claim based on extensive experience.
