Employment Discrimination

At Oxendine Barnes & Associates PLLC, we represent clients who have been wronged by an employer. This can be hard-working employees who have been unlawfully let go from a job due to discrimination against their race, religion, gender, nationality, disability, age or sexual orientation.

Employees who do their job and work hard deserve the respect and fairness the law allows them. Our Raleigh employment discrimination lawyers understand the impact these cases can have on a client’s future. We intend to hold an employer accountable when they deny loyal and hard-working employees the rights they deserve under federal and state law.

Common employer practices that can be deemed unlawful include:

• Being discriminated against in hiring, firing or pay based on religion, age, disability, race, gender and sexual orientation.
• Receiving unequal pay for the same work other employees are doing based on religion, age, disability, race, gender and sexual orientation.
• Being punished or retaliated against for standing up for your rights in the workplace, including speaking out against employer fraud, corruption or unsafe working conditions.
• Being taken advantage of by your employer by failing to receive the pay you deserve, specifically unpaid overtime compensation.
