Deep Knowledge Of Federal Employment Law

Federal employment law addresses a wide range of legal issues under a multitude of federal statutes, including:

Each federal agency has an equal employment opportunity (EEO) process for filing informal and formal complaints of discrimination. Once you have exhausted the EEO process, charges may be heard before an administrative law judge at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The EEOC judge enforces federal employment discrimination laws along with regulations, policies and practices to ensure equal employment opportunities. You may also have the right to sue in the U.S. District Court. Our lawyers represent federal employees through the EEO process, before the EEOC and in federal court.
