San Diego Age Discrimination Lawyer

Are you facing age discrimination in the workplace? At Potter Handy Law Firm, our experienced San Diego age discrimination lawyers are here to protect your rights and fight for justice.

Understanding Age Discrimination

Age discrimination occurs when an employer treats an employee or job applicant less favorably because of their age, particularly if they are 40 years of age or older. This type of discrimination is illegal under both federal and California state law, including:

  • The federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA)
  • California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA)

Signs of Age Discrimination

Age discrimination can take many forms in the workplace, including:

  • Being passed over for promotions or training opportunities
  • Receiving negative performance reviews despite good work
  • Facing harassment or derogatory comments about your age
  • Being excluded from meetings or important projects
  • Experiencing a reduction in responsibilities or pay
  • Being laid off or fired without just cause
