I retained Matthew after the initial consultation. Within just a few minutes of speaking to him about my situation, I know he was the guy for the matter. We were able to reach an agreement in a complex custody matter at the first conference due to Matt’s aggressiveness and knowledge of the law. Honest, aggressive, caring, and has a rare spark that makes him stand out. Excellent attorney and a gentleman. 5 Stars!

I had the good fortune to work with Ginger on a workplace issue involving discrimination. From the first phone call Ginger showed the utmost integrity and knowledge on the subject. She was patient and engaged in hearing about the situation, very upfront about my options, and throughout the process provided clear information to help guide my decisions. She was prompt and courteous, and also appropriately firm, in all her communication. She was able to reach a mutually agreed upon resolution in under 3 months and I was thrilled with the outcome! I would (and in fact already have) highly recommend her for any of the legal areas in which she practices.

Ginger is an wonderful attorney! Knowledgeable, calm, tough, focused. If you want your complaint resolved with fairness and compassion, without being dragged into excessive confrontation, she is the best! She was able to resolve my case (against a very large and formidable employer) in a way that was really the best for me, and quickly too! I highly, highly recommend Ginger and her team for any employment law issues.

Let me begin by saying that I had consulted previously with a place I found from googling "top sexual harassment lawyers" that told me I had no case (too bad for them!!). I thought I would give it another shot (believing I truly had a good case), and found Ginger here on Avvo. She gave me such a sense of relief after our first point of contact. Not only did she explain all of my options, including but not limited to the ones where she felt I could rectify my situation without a lawyer, but she did so unbiasedly. I never felt that she was trying to push me in one way or the other, and she made sure I had adequate time to think about any of my steps moving forward. After deciding on pursuing my case, she set up a two hour zoom meeting where she heard every aspect of my story. I never once felt judged, or belittled. I could tell she was thorough in asking me the types of questions in order to get information I wouldn't have even though of mentioning prior. The compilation of events was put together in an extremely professional well-written letter to the harasser. Throughout the time of negotiations, Ginger was always prompt to fill me in with any news, answer any questions I had, and always gave her honest opinion on given situations. Long story short, in about 4-5 months we reached a mutually satisfactory outcome. I could not be happier with her effectiveness and professionalism. Ginger is not only a great lawyer, but a compassionate and caring individual. She fought so hard for me and made sure I would be happy with the results. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you Ginger, you are the BEST!

I still remember that morning when I was confused, scared, and lost in my situation. I had found Paul online and decided to call him very early on a Sunday morning. He spent a lot of time with me, helping me work through my case, even though I couldn't express myself clearly. It was a great experience working with him and his team from start to finish. They truly had a solid game plan, and the prices were more than reasonable compared to others. When you're in a moment of uncertainty and darkness, you need a trustworthy lawyer by your side, and Paul and his team delivered exactly that

I’m not ever sure where to start with the accolades for Pospisil Swift LLC. Mike and Matt are fantastic! This is the first I’ve ever needed representation, so I was nervous and unsure of what to expect. From the first interactions with Mike and Matt, to the final settlement, I knew I picked the right law firm to represent me. They were extremely thorough and fought hard to get me a fair settlement. Both were always available to answer my questions and eased my nerves every step of the way. I paid nothing upfront and Pospisil Swift LLC’s fees after the settlement were well beyond fair. If you need representation, stop scrolling and contact Pospisil Swift immediately. You’ll receive the justice you’re owed!

I want to thank Attorney Tim Riemann for his professionalism and negotiation skills in working on my case. After being in a car accident and finding out the young man had no insurance, I knew it would be a challenge to re-coup any losses. Tim explained what the process would look like going forward, he was super responsive to questions within the same day and kept me informed on what was happening with the case. Once the insurance company gave him a dollar amount, he pressed for more and got it! That was amazing. His expertise and persistence yielded a pleasant settlement. I would recommend Tim to anyone in need of an injury attorney. Highly educated by the creme de la creme universities, yet unpretentious. Cynthia Anthony

I have spent months trying to understand my rights. I have contacted the EEOC, the ADA, the Job Accommodation Network, the EDD, and the CRD. All of these organizations send me back to one another. None have been able to answer my questions. Oleg was able to answer questions. He turned a 3 month project, into a 40 min conversation. I recommend contacting Le Clerc law for any questions you have about your rights. You can reach out to them on their website. Submit a form. They will respond to you. I received a response the same day I submitted my request.

His management of my case, his advice, and general presence are of an attorney many years his senior. I never had a single moment where I doubted his ability or professionalism. In addition, Zach was very personable as well. His ability to interpret a situation, and read an individual were very impressive. I am thankful that I found an amazing source of representation from him.

I highly recommend Zach Thal if you need help navigating an employment concern. I hired Zach and Spencer Thal to represent me in a lawsuit against my employer for gender discrimination, and I am so glad I did. They took my case to trial, and won! Zach prepared me to be deposed by opposing counsel, and also accompanied me to the deposition. Being deposed is a very stressful and invasive process, but Zach told me what to expect and helped me stay calm. I'm so glad he was there to support me during the hours of questioning. Zach also prepared me to be a witness for myself during the trial. He developed questions for me to answer to share my story and experience. It was very awkward to tell a jury full of strangers about the emotional pain I suffered as a result of the employment discrimination, but Zach got me through it. When I was being cross examined, he protected me by objecting to irrelevant questions, which I really appreciated. I urge you to Zach Thal if you think that you are being discriminated against at work. He took me and my case seriously and secured a win for me at trial.

I can’t say enough good things about attorney Gene and attorney Ryan at Sullivan & Sullivan! After a long and challenging journey with my case, I’m thrilled to say it’s finally over. There were so many ups and downs along the way, and at times, I felt like giving up. But Gene and Ryan were there every step of the way, offering the expertise, confidence, and support I needed to keep going. I’m so grateful for attorney Jenna’s referral because choosing Sullivan & Sullivan was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. These two attorneys are exceptional at what they do! The care and compassion they have showed me during the entire process made all the difference from sending me to the best doctors for my medical care. Thank you both for everything!

She is an absolute bulldog who will fight tooth and nail for her clients. Not only did she tirelessly dedicate herself to my case, she also cared for me on a personal level while still maintaining the utmost professionalism. She was patient with me, made sure I was always well-informed & prepared, and refused to back down from anyone. I almost felt sorry for the opposing council that went up against Traci in my case; she is such a sharp, aggressive attorney who consistently demonstrated her thorough knowledge of the law. She not only won my case bigtime, she also helped me get my confidence & power back in a what felt like a hopeless situation. I will forever be indebted to Traci and will surely recommend her to anyone who may find themselves in need of representation.

Dan Rose has represented me, my family, and several of our friends over the past 25 years. He is our go to guy and a comfort to us, knowing he will always have our backs. He has never failed us. He wins. He is a highly skillful and accomplished professional with an impeccable record of successes in the cases he has taken on. He is efficient and thorough and effective. One may say this about other attorneys, but Dan has something special. He has a fire in his belly. Once Dan is your advocate, he is intrepid and tenacious in pursuit of justice for you. That’s what you want in an advocate. For me personally, what makes him extra special is his sensitivity, compassion, patience and understanding of what people are going through in the legal process and how intrusive it can be. Dan really gets this.He keeps his clients informed every step of the way. When you hire Dan, you not only hire an attorney, but also, you hire a partner who will be in lockstep with you throughout the legal process. I give Dan the highest rating possible. Hands down. He’s the greatest!

She also got back to me fairly quickly upon my initial correspondence with her (unlike some other lawyers I reached out to) and was willing to fully hear me out and assist me to the best of her ability.

I talked with several employment attorneys before hiring Michelle to assist with my severance dispute. I ended up going with her because of a very good referral from a close friend who used her for a non-compete matter he had as an EVP. Michelle was well-versed in all aspects of executive severance and got me everything I wanted. It took awhile, but that was not her fault--there were several delays on my employer's part. Despite this, Michelle kept them on track and kept me updated. Her fees were reasonable, which I really appreciated. Could not be happier.

Their meticulous efforts have given me a comprehensive and well-organized plan, providing the peace of mind I need. I now feel confident that when the time comes, my family will know exactly what steps to take without facing any unnecessary financial burdens.

Parthasarathy, and their team were warm, empathetic, generous, friendly, efficient, and extremely competent. I honestly couldn't have asked for better legal advice and support! Working with them solved my issues and empowered me with strategies to advocate for myself! I couldn't imagine going anywhere else for legal representation.

Scott was there every step of the way going above and beyond after my 9 year old daughter was hit by a car. He helped navigate through the complexities of multiple car insurance companies, hospitals, health insurance, court filings and every single legality involved with the accident. His patience, knowledge and persistence effectively resulted in securing the maximum settlement for my daughter’s future. My daughter and I will forever be grateful that his hard work and dedication to our case means that we can put that part of our lives behind us and look forward to a future of healing and thriving.

If I could give Scott and his firm 100 stars out of 5, I absolutely would. Words can't fully capture how much Scott did for me and my family during one of the most challenging times in our lives. His professionalism, kindness, empathy, and exceptional expertise in every detail and strategy of our case were truly remarkable. Throughout the entire process, I felt not just supported but genuinely cared for, as if someone was fighting tirelessly for me when I lacked the strength to do so myself. If you're looking for a lawyer who combines an unparalleled understanding of the legal system with unmatched compassion, look no further than Scott. We can't say enough wonderful things about him and the outstanding work he does!

Craig Byrnes is incredible. I found Craig after I sought legal representation after my employer presented me with a difficult situation. He was so responsive, knowledgeable, and clear in his approach to protect my interests. Craig is adept at filtering out ethical or emotional issues from legal issues, and does not waste time on futile matters. He is extremely efficient and does not sugarcoat anything. He is great at client management too, keeping me focused on the task at hand and talking sense into me when needed. Craig was able to reach an amicable resolution with my employer to end the situation gracefully and rationally. I don't know if anyone has referred to their attorney as a knight in shining armor, but he is definitely that. I highly recommend him to anyone - you want him on your side.

I cannot explain the great help Craig was to me in my case. He picked up the dirty work another attorney left behind, In no time he had answers for me, that he explained in great detail until I was on board with understanding the big picture. He is extraordinary and professional. Craig kept me in the loop every step of the way, and unlike other attorneys, he never mentioned time spent on the phone nor email exchanges, he doesn't make it about money. He truly cares about his clients and makes time for them. I am beyond happy with the settlement he obtained, and would highly recommend Craig to anyone looking for an honest, professional, experienced and empathetic attorney. If ever there is need of representation again, I would not think twice to call on Craig, the relationship we built and advised he gave me has helped me lifelong.

Mr. Byrnes served me twice. I first met him when searching for an employment lawyer because I wanted a contract if I was to leave my job to go help prospective employer with their business. I was leaving a highly paid job and wanted both sides to be clear as to what we agreed to. Once the contract was signed and I resigned my other job, my employer refused to pay me what was agreed to in the contract. Mr. Byrnes provided excellent advice throughout the whole mess, was strategic in his approach, and was far more knowledgeable that some of the lawyers the employer hired (employer went through about 3 lawyers before finally settling). Mr. Byrnes got me a big settlement. I cannot say enough positive things about Mr. Byrnes. His professionalism is outstanding. He prepared for the case so thoroughly that no matter what opposing lawyers might throw at us, he always responded with facts and law, so they stopped arguing with him. I wouldn't want to have to be on the other side in a case he was involved with. He always told me the truth, explained the law and how judges were ruling on various points, and he listened to my concerns with great sensitivity. Anyone who has an employment law issue can do no better than turning to Craig Byrnes. Ultimately, he stood strong for me and obtained a big settlement for me.

Mr. John C. Fowler is a godsend. I was in a work related accident a few years ago and going through some hard times because of it. At the time I didn't not know that I had any rights or that I could get help to get medical attention I needed. Without any help or any direction in my situation I felt so lost and depressed. But all of this changed when I met Mr. Fowler, he explained to me my rights, he got me the help I needed to get back on my feet and with time I was able to go back to work. He worked long and hard to settle our case. I thank Mr. Fowler for helping me and my family during this difficult time in life we went through.

I was originally trained as a mediator in 1992. I taught conflict management at the university level between 1995 and 2013. In the last 25 years I have participated in a supportive role in dozens of mediations. It is with that expertise in the field of conflict resolution and mediation that I give Karen Sloat 5 stars. So many attorney mediators just do what they were trained to do in law school-- analyze the case and argue the merits. That often results in the same adversarial contest and entrenchment that gave rise to the lawsuit to begin with. Skilled mediators, like Ms. Sloat, do more than that. They identify parties needs and work to achieve outcomes that meet those needs. They approach resolution of conflict as a collaboration, rather than a zero-sum game and encourage parties to view negotiations from that perspective. These are the ways in which Karen Sloat showed us she is not just a lawyer relying on what she learned in law school, but a mediator capable of applying mediation the theory and technique to the cases in front of her. It is beyond the scope of this short review to comment on Ms. Sloat’s communication and facilitation skills, capacity for neutrality, etc. Suffice to say that if she didn’t have those in abundance too, she would not be the very capable, dedicated mediator I observed during a recent mediation.

What a Discrimination Lawyer Can Do for You

A discrimination lawyer specializes in handling cases where individuals or groups face unfair treatment based on protected characteristics, such as race, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, or sexual orientation. These lawyers assist clients in filing discrimination claims, representing them in legal proceedings, and ensuring that their rights under federal, state, and local laws are upheld. Discrimination cases may arise in employment, housing, education, public accommodations, or other settings.

Whether you’ve been discriminated against at work, denied housing, or treated unfairly in other areas of life, a discrimination lawyer can help you navigate the legal process and seek compensation or corrective action.

When Should I Hire a Discrimination Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a discrimination lawyer in several situations where unfair treatment occurs based on protected characteristics. Common scenarios include:

  • Employment Discrimination:
    • Workplace discrimination: If you’ve been treated unfairly at work because of your race, gender, disability, religion, age, sexual orientation, or another protected status, a lawyer can help you file a claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or a similar state agency.
    • Wrongful termination: If you were fired due to discrimination or retaliation for reporting discriminatory behavior, a lawyer can assist with filing a lawsuit and seeking compensation for lost wages, emotional distress, and other damages.
    • Failure to promote: If you’ve been denied a promotion or opportunities due to discriminatory practices, a lawyer can investigate the claim and represent you in legal actions against your employer.
    • Harassment: If you’ve experienced workplace harassment, such as sexual harassment or a hostile work environment based on your race, gender, or other characteristics, a lawyer can help you pursue legal remedies.
  • Housing Discrimination:
    • Denial of housing: If you’ve been denied housing due to your race, disability, family status, or other protected factors, a lawyer can help you file a complaint with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) or sue the landlord or property manager for violating the Fair Housing Act.
    • Unfair rental practices: If a landlord or property manager treats you unfairly based on discriminatory factors (e.g., refusing reasonable accommodations for a disability), a lawyer can help you enforce your rights.
  • Education Discrimination:
    • Discrimination in schools: If you or your child has faced discrimination in an educational setting based on race, disability, gender, or religion, a lawyer can help you file complaints under laws like Title VI, Title IX, or the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
  • Public Accommodations:
    • Denial of services: If a business or public service has discriminated against you based on race, gender, disability, or other protected characteristics, a lawyer can assist you in filing a complaint or lawsuit under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or other anti-discrimination laws.

Hiring a discrimination lawyer early can help protect your rights and ensure that your claim is filed within legal deadlines.

What Does a Discrimination Lawyer Do?

A discrimination lawyer provides a range of legal services to help individuals and groups fight against discriminatory practices. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Filing discrimination claims: A lawyer can help you file a complaint with government agencies, such as the EEOC, HUD, or your state’s human rights commission. They ensure that your claim is properly documented and filed within required time limits.
  • Investigating discrimination claims: Discrimination lawyers gather evidence, interview witnesses, and review documents to build a strong case for proving discriminatory practices.
  • Negotiating settlements: In many cases, a lawyer can negotiate a settlement with the employer, landlord, or other party involved in the discrimination case, seeking compensation or corrective action without going to trial.
  • Representing clients in court: If your case goes to court, a lawyer will represent you during hearings, present evidence, and argue your case before a judge or jury.
  • Handling retaliation claims: If you face retaliation for filing a discrimination complaint or reporting discriminatory practices, a lawyer can help you pursue a retaliation claim.
  • Advising on legal rights: A discrimination lawyer explains your legal rights under federal and state anti-discrimination laws, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the ADA, the Fair Housing Act, and others.

How Are Discrimination Lawyers Paid?

Discrimination lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the expected duration of the legal process. Common payment structures include:

  • Contingency fee: Many discrimination lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. Their fee is usually a percentage of the settlement or court award, typically ranging from 25% to 40%.
  • Hourly rate: For cases that don’t involve a contingency fee arrangement, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates for discrimination lawyers generally range from $200 to $600 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and the case’s complexity.
  • Flat fee: For simpler legal tasks, such as drafting a discrimination complaint or providing legal advice, some lawyers may charge a flat fee.
  • Pro bono or reduced fees: Some discrimination lawyers offer pro bono (free) or reduced-fee services, especially in cases involving low-income clients or significant civil rights issues.

It’s important to discuss fee arrangements during your initial consultation to ensure that you understand the total cost of legal services and how payment will be handled.

How Much Does a Discrimination Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a discrimination lawyer depends on factors like the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the potential for a settlement or trial. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fees: If the lawyer works on a contingency basis, their fee will typically range from 25% to 40% of any settlement or court award. For example, if you win a settlement of $50,000 and the lawyer’s fee is 30%, they would receive $15,000, and you would keep the remaining $35,000.
  • Hourly rates: Discrimination lawyers who charge by the hour typically bill between $200 and $600 per hour. For example, a case that takes 20 hours of legal work at $300 per hour would cost $6,000 in legal fees.
  • Flat fees: Some legal services, such as filing a discrimination complaint or providing a legal consultation, may be available for a flat fee ranging from $500 to $2,500, depending on the complexity of the task.
  • Pro bono or sliding scale fees: In some cases, particularly for low-income individuals, lawyers may offer reduced fees or work pro bono.

Always ask for a detailed estimate of costs during your consultation, and clarify whether the lawyer offers flexible payment options.

Top Questions to Ask a Discrimination Lawyer

Before hiring a discrimination lawyer, it’s important to ask key questions to ensure they have the experience and qualifications to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with discrimination cases?
    Ensure that the lawyer has handled discrimination cases similar to yours, whether it involves employment, housing, or public accommodation discrimination.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee, hourly rate, or flat fee, and ask for a detailed breakdown of costs.
  3. What are my chances of success?
    Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case, including potential challenges and the likelihood of success.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Discrimination cases can take time to resolve, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to take, from filing a complaint to reaching a settlement or going to trial.
  5. Will I need to go to court?
    Ask whether your case is likely to settle out of court or if a trial may be necessary. If a trial is possible, ask what steps the lawyer will take to prepare.
  6. What damages or remedies can I seek?
    Ask about the types of compensation or corrective action you can pursue, such as back pay, emotional distress damages, job reinstatement, or policy changes.
  7. What steps should I take to protect my rights?
    Ask for advice on how to document evidence, handle workplace or housing interactions, and avoid retaliation while your case is pending.

How to Check the Credibility of a Discrimination Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable discrimination lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Check their bar status: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and in good standing with the state bar association. You can check this on your state bar’s website.
  • Look for discrimination case experience: Review the lawyer’s website or profile to ensure they specialize in employment law, civil rights, or discrimination cases and have successfully handled similar cases in the past.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about their experience with the lawyer.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on discrimination matters.
  • Check for certifications or memberships: Look for certifications or memberships in civil rights organizations or employment law associations, such as the National Employment Lawyers Association (NELA).

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a discrimination lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Detailed account of the discrimination: Provide a clear description of the discriminatory actions, including dates, locations, and individuals involved. Document specific incidents and any witnesses who can support your claim.
  • Workplace or housing records: Bring copies of relevant employment or housing documents, such as job performance evaluations, rental agreements, emails, or written correspondence related to the discrimination.
  • Company or organization policies: If the discrimination occurred in the workplace or housing, bring copies of company policies, employee handbooks, or housing agreements that outline anti-discrimination policies.
  • Evidence of damages: Provide evidence of any financial losses, such as lost wages, job termination, or increased rent, as well as emotional or psychological distress caused by the discrimination.
  • Previous complaints or actions: If you’ve filed previous complaints or taken any action related to the discrimination, such as reporting the issue to HR or filing a complaint with a government agency, bring copies of those documents.
  • Questions about the process: Prepare a list of questions about your legal options, potential outcomes, and the lawyer’s approach to handling your case.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice for pursuing your discrimination claim.
