Effective Counsel On Employment Discrimination Claims
Many companies face employment discrimination lawsuits at some point in the life of the business. The law is designed to protect employees from having to endure discrimination in the workplace and provides remedies for those employees with legitimate claims. Unfortunately for business owners, many unfounded claims make their way into the court system, forcing employers to spend time and money defending against frivolous lawsuits.
At Slinde Nelson, we focus on defending employers charged with discrimination. We are aggressive from the beginning, mounting strong defenses and handling employment law issues so that you can concentrate on running your business.
If you are a business owner facing an employment discrimination lawsuit, we are ready to help. Call 503-567-1234 to arrange a free initial consultation.
What Type Of Claim Are You Facing?
Our lawyers are intimately familiar with employment law issues in Oregon and Washington because we have run businesses and hired employees ourselves. We know what you want in an employment defense lawyer — we have hired them for our own businesses.
A disgruntled employee could assert a discrimination claim based on a number of perceived slights and under a variety of laws. We have experience defending against all of these claims and more.
- Hiring or firing based on race, religion, sex or national origin, in violation of Title VII
- Age discrimination under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA)
- Disability-related claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act
- Wrongful discharge for whistleblowing or any other reason
