Race & National Origin Discrimination

Atlanta Racial Discrimination Attorney

Discrimination based on race, color, or national origin continues to be a prevalent problem in the workplace despite significant progress since the civil rights movement. At our law firm, we fight against discrimination and provide legal representation to those who have been discriminated against in their workplace due to their race, color, or national origin. Prohibitions against this kind of discrimination include the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the Ku Klux Klan Acts (42 U.S.C. § 1981), and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII). 

While discrimination based on race and national origin is prohibited by these laws, there are differences between the two. Race discrimination refers to discrimination based on an employee’s race or perceived race, while national origin discrimination can be a combination of factors such as race, ethnicity, language, country of origin, or ancestry. Discrimination based on color alone is also prohibited and includes discrimination based on pigmentation, complexion, tone, or shade of skin color. At our law firm, we are equipped to handle any type of discrimination case based on race, color, or national origin. 

Discrimination based on race, color, or national origin can occur in many ways, including hiring, promotion, wrongful discharge, racial harassment, or hostile work environments. Employers may refuse to hire someone based on their race or national origin, ask for information that could suggest their race or national origin, or use this information in their hiring decisions. Employers may also create a hostile work environment based on an employee's race, leading to a claim of racially hostile work environment.

If you have been a victim of discrimination based on your race, color, or national origin, our law firm can help you get the justice and compensation you deserve.
