Retaliation

Call 215-322-6990 to speak with a PA Retaliation Lawyer today!

Retaliation is common in personal and business relationships.  In the employment context retaliation can take many forms; some illegal and some not.  If you experience retaliation after exercising your rights under certain employment laws you may be entitled to compensation.  Contact a PA retaliation lawyer to discuss your case.   

Many employment law statutes protect employees who oppose employment practices made unlawful by those very statutes.  For example, an employee who requests a reasonable accommodation under the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) is protected from retaliation. 

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects employees who complain about unlawful workplace harassment or discrimination based upon race, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender or pregnancy.  The ADEA protects employees who complain about age discrimination. 

In all of these case, the successful employee may be entitled to compensation; especially if she experiences an adverse employment action.  Adverse employment actions can take many forms, including, but not limited to, denial of promotion, written or verbal warnings, being placed on a performance improvement plan, harassment, demotion or discharge.

If you have a question regarding employer retaliation, contact a PA retaliation lawyer.   Attorney Preissman can help you sort out whether or not you are the victim of illegal retaliation and, if so, can provide aggressive, experienced and diligent legal representation.
