Experienced Race Discrimination Lawyer in Pensacola
When race affects your employment situation, you may have a claim for discrimination.
- An interviewer may decide to offer a job to someone else, even though you are the best-qualified candidate.
- Your employer may pass you over, and give a promotion to someone else because of racial bias.
- Your boss may have demoted you, or fired you, even though you have an excellent work record and your evaluations have always been good to excellent.
