Atlanta Employment Attorney

The workplace plays a central role in the lives of nearly all Atlanta residents.  You likely spend thousands of hours each year on the job or at your place of business.  As an employee or employer, you have certain rights and protections that are afforded to you by state and federal employment laws.  It is important that employers understand these rights and comply with labor laws that affect your business or workplace.  As an employee, you should be aware of your rights and be prepared to take action if they are violated.  You should not standby.  Many federal statutes include provisions for the payment of attorney fees and we will work with you to make sure you get the compensation you deserve.

Atlanta Sexual Harassment Attorneys

There are two basic types of sexual harassment.  The first type of sexual harassment is called Hostile work environment sexual harassment.  This form of harassment occurs where an employee, because of his or her gender, is subjected to an atmosphere of unwelcome conduct (this can be words or actions) that unreasonably interferes with the employee's work performance or otherwise creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work environment. If you were the victim of sexual harassment, you need a Georgia employment attorney who can help you with your discrimination case.

Georgia Racial Discrimination Attorneys

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.
