Employment Discrimination Attorneys
in Denver and throughout Colorado and Wyoming
Employment discrimination claims under Title VII are particularly appropriate for class action treatment. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, because it provides individual plaintiffs the opportunity to seek redress against an employer as part of a group, allows broader discovery options, and a potential tolling of applicable statutes of limitation. Thus, litigants could seek class action certification for discrimination based on race, national origin, religion, sex, and pregnancy.
Litigants claiming to be adversely affected by discrimination based on age, under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), could also seek certification as a class. The general structure of ADEA is patterned after Title VII and provides many of the same rights and remedies as Title VII.
Litigants claims to be adversely affected by discrimination based on disability under the Americans with Disability Act or the Rehabilitation Act could also seek certification as a class.
The attorneys at Burg Simpson are experienced in class action litigation and can provide information and advice about the potential for a class action and about your rights if you are or may be part of a class action. Call or email us today for a free consultation.
