Employment discrimination can take many forms, including retaliation based on any of the above factors, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, and being passed over for deserved promotions (often referred to as the "glass ceiling"). In every case we handle, we work vigorously on behalf of our clients, seeking justice in the forms of job reinstatement, equal pay, monetary compensation, workplace training, and other corrective actions.

Employment discrimination cases can take two tracks--state or federal. We work in both New Jersey and New York state courts, within the parameters of the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (NJLAD) and the New York Law Against Discrimination (NYLAD), conducting thorough investigations, filing complaints, and taking all necessary steps to aggressively advocate on behalf of our clients' rights.

In both New York and New Jersey state courts, we represent members of the GLBT community in matters of employment discrimination based on sexual orientation. In New Jersey employees are also protected from discrimination based on sexual identity. We provide fair, effective, aggressive advocacy on behalf of clients who have suffered from discrimination in the workplace in these cases.

We also represent clients on the federal level after they have taken the proper steps with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).

We understand the process clients need to go through in addressing these serious issues. We will listen to your concerns, help you understand your rights, and guide you in taking the appropriate steps to achieve a just resolution.

Attorney Jackson is a former staff attorney with the EEOC and has a wealth of experience skillfully representing employees in these sensitive cases. She understands the complexities involved in handling employment discrimination issues and offers a unique insight into these matters in her service to clients.
