Law Firm Combatting LGBTQIA Discrimination in the Workplace
Despite recent progress, workplace discrimination against LGBTQIA individuals remains far too prevalent. According to a Harvard survey released in late 2017, 22% of LGBTQIA people have experienced anti-LGBTQIA discrimination when it comes to being paid equally or considered for promotion, and 20% report discrimination in hiring. And a recent survey shows that LGBTQIA Americans are more likely to become unemployed as a result of the coronavirus epidemic than their non-LGBTQIA counterparts.
Hiring a proven and effective advocate is critical to obtaining the maximum recovery in a sexual orientation discrimination case. The top-rated LGBTQIA discrimination lawyers at Zuckerman Law have significant experience advocating for full equality on behalf of LGBTQIA victims of discrimination.
Jason Zuckerman, the founder of the firm, held a senior position at the U.S. Office of Special Counsel, where he worked to enforce the prohibition against LGBTQIA discrimination in the federal workforce and provided training and outreach to federal managers and supervisors to prevent LGBTQIA discrimination.
U.S. News and Best Lawyers® have named Zuckerman Law a Tier 1 firm in Litigation – Labor and Employment in the Washington DC metropolitan area.
