Protecting Your Business Interests During Litigation

You received a lawsuit or “demand letter” from a former (or current) employee asking for a lot of money. How can you best protect your current employees, yourself and your business? You should immediately consult with a knowledgeable and experienced employment lawyer. Davis*Gavsie & Hakim, LLP has the experience and will utilize innovative approaches to help solve your litigation dilemmas and to aggressively defend your business’ interests while minimizing the expense as much as possible. We work efficiently to achieve your goals.

Whether the claim is for discrimination, unlawful harassment, wrongful termination, or unpaid monies, we can take the worry off your shoulders.

Employment Discrimination

Discrimination generally occurs when an employee is intentionally treated differently because of race, color, religion, national origin, disability, gender, age, and in some states, sexual orientation. Employment discrimination claims may be prosecuted under various state and federal statutes. Even if the employee’s evidence is sufficient to show discrimination, an employer may be able to justify a particular job action by demonstrating that such treatment arose out of business necessity, or that a legitimate job qualification required consideration of factors that had an unintentional discriminatory effect. When the employer makes such a legitimate justification, the employee must show that discrimination, not the employer’s justification, was the true reason for the action.
