Our Palmdale employment lawyers have been a staple in the local legal community since 2016. Let our family take care of your family today.
You’re Protected From Workplace Discrimination
California has state laws in place, courtesy of the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), that are designed to ensure that employers cannot engage in discriminatory practices when interacting with current employees or applicants. Likewise, the Federal Civil Rights Act and Title VII offer employees additional protections from harm.
You specifically have the right to take legal action against an employer who attempts to discriminate against you or engage in a harassment campaign against you based on the following protected characteristics:
- Disability or medical condition
- National origin
- Race or ethnicity
- Gender or sex
- Age (40 and older)
- Religion
- Sexual orientation or gender identity
- Pregnancy or parental status
You can work with a Palmdale workplace discrimination attorney to determine when you have the right to open an investigation against an employer. We can specifically help you fight back against wrongful terminations, harassment, denied promotions, unequal pay, or attempts to retaliate against you for taking protected actions.
Our Palmdale Workplace Discrimination Lawyers Fight Back on Your Behalf
To fight back against workplace discrimination, our attorneys can help you:
- Understand your right to legal action under the state and federal laws designed to protect you
- Consistently communicate with you about what you should expect from a workplace discrimination case
- Connect you with professional investigators who can bring together the records, communications, and other documentation needed to argue for your right to workplace discrimination compensation
- Capitalize on evolving technologies in the legal field to ensure that your case moves forward as smoothly as possible
We do not accept lowball settlement offers from employers who want to get out of the consequences of their discriminatory practices. All the while, we ensure that you retain direct access to our legal staff and get your questions answered in a reasonable and timely manner.
We are your allies, first and foremost. Whether you want to take on a workplace discrimination case alone or alongside other impacted coworkers, you can count on Omega Law Group to represent your best interests.
We Ask for the Compensation You Need
Taking legal action against an employer after instances of workplace harassment allows you to demand compensation for the losses you’ve sustained as a result of that discrimination.
We can specifically argue for your right to a settlement accounting for your:
- Emotional distress
- Reduced quality of life
- Lost wages
- Lost workplace benefits
- Denied promotions or opportunities for advancement
- Pain and suffering
We can discuss the economic value of your workplace discrimination case in greater detail during your case consultation. If you’ve lost your job as a result of someone’s discriminatory behavior, we can also discuss your right to have your position restored.
Evidence Makes Your Workplace Discrimination Case
You can make it easier for our Palmdale workplace discrimination attorneys to demand compensation on your behalf.
For example, reporting discriminatory practices to your human resources department may not have an immediate impact on your well-being, but it can start to establish a paper trail and indicate that you’ve discussed misconduct with workplace management before. Likewise, keeping thorough records of discriminatory practices can strengthen your case.
Most importantly, do not move forward with legal action against an employer without professional assistance. We recommend waiting until you’ve spoken with an attorney to start fighting for workplace discrimination compensation. Entering into negotiations without support can leave you on the back foot.

Discrimination isn’t always loud and obvious. While some instances of discrimination can see you miss out on promotions or make less money than your peers, others are smaller and more insidious.

Our workplace discrimination attorneys in Palmdale can help you gather the evidence you need to make a case against an employer, your coworkers, or any combination of people who’ve targeted you.
