If you have suffered discrimination and retaliation in the workplace, a federal EEOC attorney is essential. You want to fight back and a federal EEOC attorney can help you. Here’s why you need an attorney to help you file an EEOC complaint.
Unfortunately, when an employee pursues a lawsuit without an attorney, there are often mistakes. For example, the employee’s filed charge may unintentionally omit essential information – even something as simple as not checking the “age” and “retaliation” boxes, even though these would have been the strongest claims. If critical facts are missing from the charge, the case suffers, and you could even miss the deadline for asserting these claims. This can damage your legal interest.
Often, when you call the EEOC, you are told you need to schedule an interview with the agency before they can help you file your charge. However, the next available opening could be three months away. Choosing to hire an attorney means you can skip that delay. The attorney can simply file your charge and help you skip that wait.
If you have been the victim of discrimination in the workplace, it’s important to speak to an attorney as soon as possible. We can help you decide on the best course of action and ensure that your documentation is filed on time and correctly. To learn more, contact Cook, Craig, & Francuzenko.
