Dedicated EEOC Claims Attorneys Fight for Justice on Behalf of Discrimination Victims

Strong advocates for equal rights in the workplace

It is disheartening when hardworking, qualified people are deprived of jobs due to discrimination. The Federal government has empowered the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to punish employers and compensate victims of discrimination in the workplace. At Hepworth, Gershbaum & Roth, PLLC, our team of New York City EEOC claims attorneys aggressively litigate against employers that discriminate. We help discrimination victims in their pursuit of justice.

Trust our experienced New York City EEOC attorneys to guide you through the mediation process

One of the steps in the EEOC process is mediation. Mediation gives each side an opportunity to quickly reach a resolution to a legal matter without the uncertainty of a trial. It is not mandatory to have a New York City EEOC attorney represent you in mediation. However, we strongly encourage you to have an attorney present. The EEOC is not there to represent you—they are only there to represent the United States. We ensure that you do not sign a deal that does not protect your long-term interests. If the business refuses to agree to an acceptable settlement, then we aggressively go on to the next phase of the process. 

What kind of claims does the EEOC handle?

The EEOC was established to give legal recourse to anyone that has been the victim of discrimination in the workplace. You can file an EEOC claim whether you are an employee or just an applicant. Discrimination claims arise when a person is treated unfairly based on a trait that is beyond their control. You have the right to be treated equally in the workplace without regard to:

• Race

• Disability

• Sexual orientation

• Color

• Age

• Sex

• National origin
