Knowledge of Protected Classes and Ability to Evaluate Complex Claims
A valid employment discrimination claim must be filed by a member of a protected class as defined by various federal and state laws such as the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1976 and various specific Florida statutes. Such a claim typically arises from wrongful termination or other consequences suffered due to alleged:
- National origin, religious or race discrimination
- Gender discrimination, including pregnancy discrimination
- Age discrimination
- Disability discrimination
Remedies in employment discrimination cases may include recovery of back pay and future pay after a wrongful termination, compensatory damages and, under some circumstances, substantial punitive damages.
