New York and New Jersey Employment Discrimination Law and Your Rights
Suffering discrimination in the workplace is not always clear-cut. You may have been denied a promotion, feel as though you are treated differently, or have been a victim of sexual harassment. What legally constitutes discrimination in the workplace is often misunderstood by both employees and employers. When you are a victim of discrimination in the workplace, or your business is accused of discrimination, you do have rights. At the Law Offices of Patricia Martin-Gibbons, we offer experienced and strategic advocacy to protect our employer and employee clients involved in discrimination, wrongful termination, and sexual harassment disputes.
Our lawyers are dedicated to helping employees and employers protect their rights and interests in employment discrimination, wrongful termination and sexual harassment suits.

Employment discrimination:
We represent employers and employees in disputes involving discrimination based on race, age, sex, religious affiliation, sexual preference, disabilities, and pregnancy. If you were a victim of discrimination or your business is facing a complex dispute and need representation at an EEOC hearing or in litigation, we can protect your rights.
Wrongful termination:
Wrongful termination occurs when an employee is terminated for discriminatory reasons or for whistleblower conduct (reporting the wrongdoing of an employer). We represent employees who have been wrongfully terminated as well as defend employers who have been accused of wrongful termination. We have the experienced to effectively protect your rights.
Sexual harassment:
Sexual harassment can be very difficult to define in the workplace and in court. Sexual harassment can be a vague feeling or a very specific set of acts. When you feel that you have been a victim of sexual harassment, you should consult with an attorney as soon as possible. Similarly, if you are an employer, it is important to protect your business if you are facing potentially damaging litigation involving sexual harassment allegations.
We represent employers in hearings and litigation after they have been accused of discrimination, wrongful termination, or sexual harassment. We are also experienced in the litigation of employment contracts and can successfully protect your rights, your reputation, and your future success as a business owner or employee.
