Age Discrimination Employment Act (ADEA)

Age Discrimination Lawsuits in Los Angeles

The 1967 Age Discrimination Employment Act (ADEA) protects against employment discrimination against anyone on the basis of age, and if you have been the victim of this type of illegal behavior, you should speak with a knowledgeable Los Angeles employment law attorney about the case. Examples of age discrimination include refusals to hire or promote or wrongful termination on the basis of age, as well as passing an employee over for a promotion or a pay raise for this reason. Other scenario s are when an employer denies benefits to an older employee or includes an age requirement or preference as employment criteria . These protections apply to persons over 40 years of age.

You should not hesitate to take effective action against an employer who has practiced age discrimination against you.
