Filing A Discrimination Complaint In Massachusetts
Most employment discrimination claims in Massachusetts start with a complaint filed with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination or the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. This step is generally required before you can file a lawsuit, and there are strict deadlines involved.
We help clients gather the documentation needed to support a strong complaint, and we represent clients through the investigation process and, if necessary, litigation.
