How can a Hispanic lawyer help me in employment discrimination cases?
When an employment discrimination case occurs in the United States, there is a legal process that must be followed in order to respect the rights of the affected worker. With the help of a Hispanic lawyer, this process will be much simpler and you, as a victim, will be able to act correctly to receive possible benefits to which your case applies.
According to statistics from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, also known by the acronym EEOC, between 1997 and 2018 the agency received a total of 423,000 complaints from workers who had been discriminated against in their jobs because of their age.
This figure corresponds to only 22% of the total number of complaints received by the institution for discrimination during the same period, so this type of event represents one of the most common cases that motivate the filing of labor lawsuits in the United States.
If you are a victim of wrongful termination due to discrimination, do not miss the opportunity to seek justice for your rights. Contact a Hispanic lawyer with whom you can work smoothly and with a thorough understanding of each step to achieve the best results in your case.

Why do I need a Hispanic lawyer in discrimination cases?
When a case of discrimination occurs in the United States, the EEOC states that a complaint must be filed with the agency, with each of the documents that serve as evidence of the case.
After a study by the authorities of the institution, a mediation process is carried out between the parties and, if a favorable result is not reached, the worker may file a lawsuit against the employer for the case of employment discrimination.
This whole process can be a bit complicated for the victim, especially if they are unaware of the laws that apply to the case and the different benefits they may be eligible for if they are a victim of employment discrimination in the United States.
In these cases, the help of a Hispanic lawyer who knows very well the legal framework of the situation will be indispensable for you to obtain each of the benefits that the law applies to your case and to be able to assert your rights as a victim.
In what cases can we talk about employment discrimination?
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) establishes each of the cases that can be considered employment discrimination against a worker, which may be grounds for filing a complaint with the agency and a subsequent lawsuit.
Some of the cases that are considered employment discrimination in the United States are:
- Discrimination based on race or color of the worker.
- Pregnancy discrimination.
- Age discrimination (workers over 40 years of age).
- Sexual harassment in the workplace.
- Discrimination based on the worker’s disability.
- Discrimination based on gender.
- Discrimination based on religion, beliefs or sexual orientation.
Each of these cases can lead to an employment discrimination case, in which the affected worker will have the opportunity to file a complaint before the aforementioned agency, including the necessary evidence to prove the truthfulness of the facts.
What benefits can I get with a Hispanic lawyer in employment discrimination cases?
In addition to legal assistance throughout the process of filing the complaint with the agency, as well as gathering the necessary evidence about the employment discrimination case, a Hispanic lawyer will be of great help when initiating an employment lawsuit, in case mediation does not produce the expected results.
When filing an employment lawsuit, a Hispanic lawyer will be able to clearly explain the laws that defend you, the rights you are entitled to, as well as represent you before the court in which the lawsuit is filed and seek compensation for the emotional damages you have suffered as a result of the discrimination case.
