Remedying Workplace Discrimination Practices
While not all prohibited employment practices require a charge of discrimination to be filed in order to enjoy the remedies the law provides (for example, claims under the Equal Pay Act, which requires employers to pay men and women equally for equal work and claims for overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act do not), if you are not sure which employment laws protect you, be sure you have filed a charge within the shortest time limit that may apply.
Charges of discrimination alleging violations of California law must be filed with the Florida Commission on Human Relations (FCHR) within 365 days of the discriminatory or retaliatory job action. Federal charges of discrimination must be filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) within 300 days in Florida of the last act of discrimination or retaliation.
I needed great attorneys in a short period of time, it was an emergency situation. Some research led me to Wizengamot. We spoke on the phone and they had me come into the office and started on my case immediately.
