Defending Your Civil Rights
Your Civil Rights & Protections
All individuals deserve equal treatment and respect, and the experienced attorneys at McCabe & Mack LLP will fight for your civil rights. You are protected by State and Federal law, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of age, disability, marital status, race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion or creed, sex or gender identity or expression, genetic information, or military or veteran status. You are also protected from retaliation for complaining about mistreatment.

- Employment discrimination, wrongful termination, harassment and retaliation
