Experienced New York City Gender Discrimination Attorneys Fight for Gender Equality in the Workplace

 

Putting an end to sex discrimination

Gender, or sex discrimination in the workplace has been against Federal law since 1964. Yet, it is still an epidemic. Gender discrimination takes many forms. The New York City sex discrimination attorneys at Hepworth, Gershbaum & Roth, PLLC recover awards from employers that have engaged in overt or subtle discrimination. We abhor businesses that act illegally and make them pay for violating employees' rights to earn a fair income in a safe environment.

Helping you evaluate your options as a victim of gender discrimination

Most of the victims that come to our New York gender discrimination attorneys are considering legal action against their current employer. Our free initial consultations are completely confidential because we want you to feel comfortable knowing that exploring your legal options will not put your job in jeopardy. Once a lawsuit has been filed, it is illegal for an employer to retaliate against you for asserting your rights. Both New York and Federal law are clear on the point that any unequal treatment based on gender is illegal. The most common examples of gender discrimination that lead to monetary damages for plaintiffs include:

  • Paying one gender more for the same work

  • Making promotion or hiring decisions based on gender

  • Providing benefits to the spouses of one gender, but not the other

  • Using subjective gender-based metrics to make promotion or pay increase decisions

  • Management making comments that are based on gender stereotypes

  • Using a pregnancy as a basis for not promoting an employee

Sex discrimination is a two way street

The law equally protects both men and women from being discriminated against based on their gender. Although male sex discrimination is less common, our NYC gender equality attorneys have recovered significant sums of money for men that had their rights violated. You have the same rights to file a lawsuit and recover damages for gender discrimination if you are a male. We are here to help you analyze your legal options and decide on your best course of action against your past or current employer.
