How a Race Discrimination Attorney Can Help You

Speaking to a race discrimination lawyer in San Diego can help you understand your legal rights and the protections you are afforded under California law. An attorney can investigate and analyze your place of employment to search for discriminatory patterns or examples of harassment based on your race or color.

Then, your discrimination lawyer can seek legal remedies on your behalf, such as backpay for lost wages, emotional distress compensation, punitive damages, and policy changes. Although the vast majority of racial discrimination cases in California reach settlements, an attorney will have the power to take your case to trial in pursuit of fair and full compensation, if necessary.

I would trust Jillian with any legal matter. She is thorough and can help anyone understand their legal rights.

I had the pleasure of working with Jillian when I had an incident at my daughter’s school where her confidentiality rights were violated. Jillian stepped in, did lots of research, told me how to communicate to get a meeting, and prepared me to stand up for my daughter. I have never felt so confident going into a meeting before. My husband and I were able to communicate clearly where the violations were and quickly get a resolution to the problem. I would trust Jillian with any legal matter. She is thorough and can help anyone understand their legal rights. I am so grateful I reached out to Jillian, and I know she will work hard for you too.

What is Race Discrimination?

There are two types of race discrimination: disparate treatment and disparate impact. The first refers to an employer treating an employee differently because of his or her race, color, ethnicity, or national origin. This can include actions such as discrimination, harassment, refusal to hire, denial of promotions, and wrongful termination.

Disparate impact refers to practices or policies at a company that unfairly affect employees of a certain race, even if this was not the intention. Examples are certain types of pre-employment tests and credit history requirements. Both types of race discrimination are prohibited by state and federal laws in California.

Understanding Your Legal Rights

If you are a victim of racial discrimination in your workplace in San Diego, you have the right to hold your employer accountable. The California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) gives you the right to a discrimination-free work environment. If your employer has violated this state law, the company can be held legally and financially responsible for the losses you suffered as a result.
