Understanding Workplace Discrimination in California
Workplace discrimination in California is a serious issue that affects many employees. To navigate this issue effectively, it's essential to understand what qualifies as workplace discrimination in this state. Employees in California are protected against discrimination based on a number of factors under the state's stringent anti-discrimination statute. Among the protected categories are race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, and gender identity. Age (40 and older), handicap, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, and military or veteran status are all protected groups.
Discriminatory Practices at Work
Workplace discrimination can manifest in various ways, including unequal pay, wrongful termination, harassment, disparate treatment, and retaliation. Discrimination can be evident in hiring, promotion, job assignments, or even employment terms and conditions.
California Laws That Protect Employers From Discrimination
California law often offers more comprehensive protection against discrimination than federal laws. It's important to know that employees in California have the added benefit of stronger state laws, such as the Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), to address workplace discrimination.
What To Do If You Experience Workplace Discrimination
If you believe you are a victim of job discrimination, you must immediately report it. You may contact a knowledgeable Pasadena discrimination attorney to represent you or file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The first step in putting an end to discrimination is recognizing it and taking action.
Speaking with an experienced Pasadena discrimination attorney can help you better understand your legal choices, evaluate your situation, and determine the best course of action. Speaking out against workplace discrimination not only protects your own rights but also helps to create a more equitable working environment for all California employees.

I am so grateful for your passion, dedication and professionalism.- Regina

His opinions were based on years of experience within the judicial system; he has knowledge of individual judges and their values; and, he was very generous with his time.- Robert Trujillo

My mother recently had an issue with a wrongful termination from a big "not to be named" hospital system in the LA area and I wanted to make sure she found a honest and professional lawyer. I looked to my trusty YELPers and found Paul Cheng. The office could not formerly take her case, but he sent a very thoughtful and kind email regarding the fact that they are limited in the cases they can take on but would be happy to answer further questions as needed. Saddened by the fact, I still sent a nice email back thanking him for his time. He then offered to have his office write a complimentary letter on her behalf to see if an informal settlement could be made. Honestly, if I ever had to go to court, I would want a lawyer like him. Finally, a lawyer to redeem the profession!- Anna S.

I would HIGHLY recommend Paul P. Cheng and his Law firm the Cheng Law Group. My wife and I were being sued by a former employee of ours so we took to Yelp, and after reading the many amazing reviews of his law firm we decided to give him a call for a free consultation. Soon thereafter, we were sitting in Mr. Cheng's conference room with an amazing view by the way discussing our entire case. Mr. Cheng was kind, courteous, professional and very knowledgeable about employment law. I was actually surprised about how much time he took with us going over the detailed information we brought, explaining every single option we had with our case. At the end of our consultation and without asking us to retain his firm, he offered to write a complimentary letter to the opposing law firm saying that we denied all of their claims and that any further communication could be directed to his law firm; now what other lawyer would ever offer to do this? After doing so we never heard from that former employee or her law firm again and I'm sure the reason is because they knew with their baseless claims there was nothing they can do against a real lawyer like Mr. Cheng. So if you are looking for a lawyer with actual integrity and concern for the well fair of others I would certainly recommend giving Mr. Cheng a call, you won't regret it.- Christopher N.

I would first like to say that Paul Cheng is an amazing person. Not only is he very intelligent, but he is also compassionate about the work he does. That being said, he went out of his way to help my mom with her case. He respected her and always made himself available to answer any of her questions. Our family is very grateful to Paul and we highly recommend his law office.- Annie R.

I hired Paul last year on matter with my company. I had talked with 3 other lawyers and decided to go with Paul. The thing i like most about him is he's a straight forward no nonsense type guy. He tells it like it is and seems more interested in doing his job, more so than how much money he is going to make off of you. I definitely recommend him to anyone who needs a lawyer.- Jeff B.

Paul - I want to say that I very much appreciated everything you had done for me beginning with that first sad day when you took the time to hear my concerns. Beyond legal advice, the care as a human being. It has been emotionally stressful for me, but you and your entire team have been incredibly supportive. Now it is on to another chapter of my life; a much more positive one. Lastly and most importantly, I want to thank you for your affectionate guidance, for your understanding, your interest in me, your belief that I was worth being your client.- C.C.
