Discrimination laws assure every person equal rights in employment. That is, an individual should not be discriminated against on the basis of race, sex, religion, age, or disability. Discrimination law seeks to ensure protection for those employees who feel they have been victims of discrimination. Discrimination can happen during the interview process prior to taking a job, normal working conditions, or at the time of separation.

Discrimination law also leaves room for employers to expect satisfactory performance from their employees and apply consequences if that performance is not achieved or expected to be achieved. An employee may not be hired, may be terminated, or may be demoted for various reasons without it being considered discrimination based on race, sex, age, religious practice or disability. The attorneys at Isaac, Brant, Ledman & Teetor LLP understand the complexity of discrimination law and how to properly build a case or a defense for their clients.
