Workplace discrimination is a terrible thing. It is unfair and unlawful, and supervisors and employers should be held accountable. Compensation for the victims of workplace discrimination may include monetary relief and reinstatement. In addition, employers may be ordered by the government to institute training for supervisors and employees on the impact of discrimination in the workplace.

Attorney Matt Martin handles civil rights cases including:

Employment Discrimination

  • Racial discrimination
  • Gender discrimination
  • Age discrimination
  • Religious discrimination

Sexual Harassment

  • Quid pro quo claims: When a supervisor or someone else in a position of authority asks for sex in exchange for a favor, such as a promotion or raise, or in exchange for not firing you, that constitutes sexual harassment.
  • Hostile work environment: When inappropriate behavior — such as jokes, demeaning or sexually explicit photographs or threats — creates an intimidating or offensive environment, that constitutes sexual harassment.

Civil Rights Violations

  • Freedom of speech
  • Hate speech
  • Hate crimes
  • Police brutality
  • Unlawful searches and seizures by the police

Colorado Sunshine Law

Colorado has an open meetings law or "sunshine law" that requires all meetings of two or more members of any board, committee, commission or other policy-making body of any Colorado state agency to be open to public scrutiny. Our law firm has handled cases involving violations of Colorado's open meetings and welcomes opportunities to fight for the rights of individuals against government entities acting in violation of the law.
