At Millar and Mixon. we handle almost all our cases on a contingency fee basis. In other words, you don’t pay unless we win your case. After loosing your job, you may have difficulty managing your expenses. When you work with our team, you don’t have to worry about expensive legal fees or even the costs of litigation since we front those expenses for you. Instead, you can work alongside our firm to produce the favorable case outcome that you need.
We limit our practice so we can concentrate on expertly representing both public and private sector employees in three areas: workplace discrimination and retaliation claims, overtime/working off the clock claims, and violations of the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). We pride ourselves on representing hard working Georgians when their civil rights are violated by an employer. Our society expects employers to treat their workers with dignity, respect and to both not discriminate/harass their employees nor to punish them when they complain of discrimination or harassment. There are federal and state laws in place to protect your rights. If you believe you have been mistreated in the workplace or discriminated against or harassed because of your race, religion, your gender, national origin, your age, or a disability you have or in retaliation because of a complaint about one of the above, speak with one of our Atlanta employment lawyers today. All consultations are free, confidential, and with a licensed attorney.
Sexual harassment is barred by Title VII, a federal law that prohibits several forms of discrimination or harassment and it protects individuals from being subjected to such offenses. Discrimination can be of race, nationality, color, disability, age and sexuality, and Title VII applies to both private and public employers with 15 or more employees. This includes local, state and federal governments, labor organizations and employment agencies. See the EEOC website for more details. If you were the victim of sexual harassment, you need a Georgia sexual harassment attorney who can help you with your discrimination case.

Race Discrimination like other forms of discrimination or harassment is barred by two federal laws, Title VII and 42 USC §1981. These laws make it illegal for employers, including state and local governments to make employment decisions on the basis of an individual’s race. Race discrimination can include: racial harassment, failure to hire or promote, creation of a racially hostile work environment, and/or termination due to race.
