Twin Cities Employment Lawyers Fighting For Clients Discriminated Against Based On Marital Status
Often, marital status discrimination presents itself when an employer discriminates against an unmarried worker who becomes pregnant or unmarried parents. For this reason, women are disproportionately affected by marital status discrimination, though it can affect anyone.
Marital status discrimination also prohibits an employer from discriminating against an individual based on:
- The identity of an employee’s spouse or former spouse
- The situation of an employee’s spouse or former spouse
- The actions or beliefs of the employee’s spouse or former spouse
At LeBlanc Law & Mediation, we work closely with clients to craft a representation strategy that meets their unique needs. We take the time to explain the entire process before clients begin, and remain available to answer questions throughout their case.
