Your job is your livelihood, and you have the right to be treated fairly in the workplace. At Gilman & Allison, LLP, our Texas employment law attorneys represent employees facing workplace discrimination, harassment, wrongful termination, and other unlawful employment practices.
Workplace discrimination based on race, age, gender, religion, disability, or national origin is against the law. Other illegal actions may include:
Wrongful termination or unfair discipline
Denied promotions or training opportunities
Unequal pay for equal work
Hostile or toxic work environments
Before filing a lawsuit, most employment law claims must be filed with the EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission), and you only have 180 days to act. Depending on your case, you may be entitled to back pay, reinstatement, promotions, or other corrective actions.
Our Houston and Corpus Christi employment lawyers will guide you through the process, protect your rights, and fight for the fair treatment and compensation you deserve. Contact Gilman & Allison, LLP today for a confidential consultation.
Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), employees in Texas must be paid at least the federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour and receive overtime pay for any hours worked beyond 40 in a week. Unfortunately, many employers violate these wage laws, leaving workers underpaid and taken advantage of.
If your employer has failed to pay you fairly, you may be entitled to:
Unpaid back wages
Overtime compensation
Additional damages and penalties for violations
Because you only have 2 years to file a wage claim, it’s critical to act quickly.
If you’ve experienced unfair pay practices, discrimination, or other illegal treatment at work, contact our Houston or Corpus Christi offices today for a free consultation. Our experienced employment lawyers are ready to fight for the compensation and fair treatment you deserve.
