Workplace discrimination if you're treated
differently on the basis of your gender,
00:00:12.445 --> 00:00:20.180
race, age, national origin,
all of those factors come into play.
00:00:20.205 --> 00:00:25.700
If you're treated differently than others,
then you're likely subjected to
00:00:25.725 --> 00:00:28.060
discrimination based upon that.
00:00:28.085 --> 00:00:32.300
If you've been discriminated against at
work, the most important thing you can do
00:00:32.325 --> 00:00:37.960
is to complain to human resources or
complain to your supervisor, put it
00:00:37.985 --> 00:00:40.940
in writing, and then come see us.
00:00:40.965 --> 00:00:46.460
The most important thing is that in order
to even file a lawsuit, to go to court,
00:00:46.485 --> 00:00:51.500
you have to go through the EEOC,
and that is a whole separate process.
00:00:51.525 --> 00:00:55.540
What that does is it puts the state of
Florida on notice and the government.
00:00:55.565 --> 00:01:00.560
The difference between court and going
through the EEOC is, first of all, you
00:01:00.585 --> 00:01:03.900
have to file an EEOC charge,
which our firm handles.
00:01:03.925 --> 00:01:09.210
We'll draft it for you, and then once it's
filed and we have the right to sue,
00:01:09.240 --> 00:01:11.290
then a lawsuit will be initiated.
00:01:11.320 --> 00:01:15.620
We always do our best to settle
claims as quick as we can.
00:01:15.645 --> 00:01:20.770
When you bring your case to us, you can
expect a very professional environment.
00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:25.335
We want the best for you, and we want a
successful outcome, and we want to
00:01:25.360 --> 00:01:26.560
right the wrongs that were done.
