Employment Discrimination And Retaliation

Employment Discrimination . General Posts

Employment Discrimination laws are in place to help guard against discrimination by employers based on race, sex, religion, national origin, physical disability and age. Bias in hiring, promotion, job assignment, termination, compensation and various types of harassment are all included under these discriminatory practices.

Other examples include claims that can be brought under state law for wrongful termination if a person is fired for reporting or refusing to engage in illegal activity.

Personal Injury Attorneys

General Posts . Personal Injury

When a person is injured due to the negligence of someone else, he or she may need to take legal action to recover damages caused to them. Negligence is defined under the law as doing something or failing to do something that a reasonable person would do under the circumstances. When a person is injured due to negligence or carelessness of someone else, that gives rise to a legal right to collect a fair amount of compensation for their injuries.

When it comes to dealing with personal injury law, litigation is usually broken down into two separate categories: negligence and intentional acts.

In any case of negligence, the injured person, or plaintiff, must demonstrate a number of things including: the wrongdoer or defendant owed a duty to exercise reasonable care, the defendant then violated that duty and that the injuries sustained were as a result of that breach of duty.

Common negligence actions include car accidents, “slip and fall” accidents, professional negligence and faulty design or maintenance.

Intentional torts take place when any person intentionally commits a wrongful act that then results in causing injury to another.

If you have been injured due to the negligent or intentional conduct of someone else, you deserve to have your legal rights vindicated.

Medical negligence occurs when a doctor, or any other health professional, fails to provide a patient with adequate treatment that meets the standard of care owed to patients. In most medical malpractice cases, the patient suffered an injury or loss of life as the result of improper care.

Because medical malpractice cases tend to be very expensive, long and complex, it is important to find a lawyer that understands your case as well as your needs.
