BEFORE YOU CALL, DO YOU HAVE
A CASE?.

Understanding what constitutes racial discrimination in the workplace is the first step. Racial discrimination, in brief, can take many forms, including but not limited to discriminatory hiring practices, discriminatory pay, promotion and advancement discrimination, harassment based on race, and discriminatory disciplinary actions. Unfortunately, victim accounts aren’t the single piece of evidence needed to make a good case.

Before contacting a racial discrimination lawyer in NYC, first, review the

HOW TO PROVE RACIAL DISCRIMINATION IN THE WORKPLACE.

Hiring, firing, salary increases, and job advancements based on race are discriminatory and illegal. In order to successfully prove your case, however, you need to be able to clearly show that racial discrimination occurred. We recommend that victims document as much as possible in order to meet the minimum burden of proof, including:

TYPES OF RACIAL DISCRIMINATION .

Racial discrimination is a violation of federal and state law, and occurs in the workplace when a person or group of people continually depict signs of intolerance against another based on that person’s color, culture, descent, language, or religion. Such misconduct may be verbal, physical, written, or visual. This can occur between two or more people of different races, as well as between two or more people of the same race.

THERE ARE TWO PRIMARY TYPES OF WORKPLACE RACIAL DISCRIMINATION:

INTENTIONAL / DISPARATE TREATMENT RACE DISCRIMINATION

When one is intentionally treated differently than his or her coworkers in the workplace on the basis of race.

DISPARATE IMPACT RACE DISCRIMINATION

When a facially neutral company policy, practice, or rule has an inherently discriminatory effect.

EXAMPLES OF RACIAL DISCRIMINATION IN THE WORKPLACE.

Because no smart employer will admit to racism or illegal conduct, it is important to be able to recognize both intentional race discrimination and disparate impact discrimination when they occur in your workplace. Some of the more common forms of racial discrimination include:
  • Someone subjecting you to racial slurs
  • An employer refusing to consider you for a role based on your race.
  • A coworker or superior telling racially insensitive or ethnic jokes in your presence.
  • An employer refusing to hire you based on your race.
  • A coworker or superior making offensive comments based on race.
  • An employer offering you a lower rate or inferior terms based on your race.
  • Being denied training or promotional opportunities because of your race, or being demoted, disciplined, or fired for the same reason.
Here are some examples of situations in which our race discrimination lawyers secured justice for race discrimination victims:
  • One client was not promoted because he was African American. We uncovered discrimination because he was more experienced and had better annual review scores than the white employee who was promoted.
  • An employer who regularly told race-related jokes was found to have illegally discriminated against a Black employee (even though she never
  • actually called our client Black or used racial slurs).
  • A small business systematically let go of most of the employees of non-white ethnic groups during a layoff.
  • One of our clients was repeatedly passed over for a promotion in favor of less qualified Caucasian employees.

LET'S TALK

CAN I SUE MY EMPLOYER FOR
RACIAL DISCRIMINATION?

Under federal and state law, employers, potential employers, workplace superiors, and co-workers can all be sued for racial discrimination. If you believe that
you have been racially discriminated against at your place of employment, your next step will be to work with a racial discrimination lawyer in order to
determine if you have a winnable case. An experienced attorney will be able to guide you through the process of procuring evidence and proving your case,
and will also be able to perform additional research into your employer’s history on your behalf.

CONTACT A RACE DISCRIMINATION ATTORNEY TO HELP WITH YOUR CASE

Despite the great strides made in recent decades, racism still runs rampant in various parts of the corporate and professional worlds. You may face yourself with the daunting choice of whether to pursue what you believe to be racism in the workplace or let it go in favor of not pursuing the filing of a complaint. If that’s you, let experienced attorneys guide you through the process.

    Hired Yuri to help me through coop purchase process. Yuriy and his staff answered all my questions promptly, I've had attorneys in the past that once paid would take their time and de prioritize your mails, etc..Not the case here. My initial purchase wound up folding week before scheduled closing date due to seller negligence. Almost a year later, I received same level of effort from Yuriy second time around, closed, and am very happy with professionalism and expertise provided.
