What is Discrimination?

The area of practice called discrimination law covers incidents of unequal or unfair treatment based on a person's age, disability, gender, national origin, race, religion, sexual orientation, genetic makeup, and other personal characteristics. Specific states can have their unique discrimination laws.

  • Obtaining a loan or mortgage

  • Being passed over for a promotion at work

  • Attempting to rent an apartment

  • Being unable to access a store or restaurant due to a disability
