Discrimination Claim Defense Attorney in Seattle
Advocating for Clients Accused of Discrimination
If you own a business, care must be taken to ensure your policies, practices, and employees are acting in accordance with the law regarding workplace discrimination. However, this is all a machine of moving parts among other machines with many more moving parts. Even employers who are very mindful and well-meaning of these matters can find themselves hit with a discrimination claim.
Unfortunately, acting in good faith won’t stop discrimination claims if there are holes in how you do business or who you employ. At NWBizLaw, we can offer proactive solutions such as reviewing your company’s policies and procedures to help you prevent a discrimination claim from arising in the first place. If a claim does occur, we can review your situation and help you build as robust a defense.

Defending Against Age Discrimination Claims
Anyone over the age of 40 is protected by federal law. Employment decisions such as hiring, firing, layoffs, interviewing, promotions, raises, benefits, and more cannot take the employee’s age into account.
Helping Employers Accused of Sexual Discrimination
We offer prompt and experienced legal assistance in this manner. Defending against a sex discrimination claim can impact your business not just if a settlement or trial fail to go in your favor, but it can also draw your company out into an unfavorable public spotlight. Working with a capable discrimination claim defense attorney in Seattle can help you guard your best interests when facing these accusations.
Sexual Orientation Discrimination Claim Defense
Washington has gone to great lengths to protect LGBTQ+ employees from discrimination. Prejudicial treatment of employees based on their sexual orientation is against the law, and the consequences for violating that law can be serious. Defending against a claim such as this can be intimidating, but it’s necessary to help your company reach a favorable outcome in a settlement or trial – and only an experienced attorney can help you get there.
