There are many different categories of employment discrimination in Washington State. Discrimination can take many shapes and forms, including age, disability, race, credit, housing, military status. Beverly Grant Law Firm, P.S. in Lakewood, Washington handles all types of discrimination for those throughout Seattle, Tacoma, Bellevue, and beyond.
Employees usually seek legal advice after being denied a promotion, demoted, or wrongfully terminated. They seek assistance when they believe that they have been retaliated against and/or the work environment has become so untenable that there is no other alternative other than to resign.
Often an employer will try to justify their employment decisions on a non-discriminatory reason, such as poor performance in the workplace, personality issues or tardiness. An employee can defeat this reason if it can be shown that the employer’s reason is pre-textual meaning a ruse or excuse that is not supported by the evidence. Prompt employee action is required.
