Recognizing Racial Discrimination

While many Americans like to think that the strides made by the Civil Rights movement since the 1960s has eliminated the underlying unfairness in our society, this is unfortunately not the case. Every day, people are illegally discriminated against because of the color of their skin or their nationality.

If you or someone you love has been discriminated against because of his or her race, the San Antonio employment attorneys of Melton & Kumler, LLP may be able to help you get the compensation you deserve. Contact us today by calling 800-681-6932.

The Legality of Discrimination

Under national law, it is illegal to discriminate against employees or potential employees on the basis of race. This includes:

• Refusing to hire a qualified person because of his or her race
• Failing to promote or advance an employee based on his or her race
• Paying an employee less than his or her peers based on race
• Firing an employee because of his or her race
• Allowing other employees to taunt or harass a fellow employee based on race

If you or someone you love has been the victim of racial discrimination or harassment, you may be entitled to seek financial compensation. Winning a settlement or award against your employer can help you win justice and prevent other people from being victimized as you were.
