If you believe that you lost your job because of your religion, or you have experienced mistreatment, abuse or even threats at work because of your faith, the Law Offices of Rheuban & Gresen can help.

Whether you're an atheist, Jewish, Mormon, Muslim, Protestant Roman Catholic, or a follower of another religious creed, you're entitled to freedom from unfair treatment or harassment based on your religious beliefs. Both Title VII of the federal Civil Rights Act and California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) prohibit religious discrimination in employment.

If you believe you are facing religious discrimination, contact an attorney through e-mail or call us at 818.815.2727 for a free consultation.

Protecting All Workers From Religious Discrimination

Whatever the circumstances of your workplace problems, our employee rights attorneys will analyze your situation to determine whether your employer's actions violate Title VII or the FEHA. We will then take the necessary measures to pursue your claim — including the filing of a civil lawsuit in state of federal court.

While there are a few situations where religious belief is a bona fide occupational qualification — for example, a church would not be expected to consider hiring a Rabbi for a minister position — most religious discrimination cases we encounter do not involve religious employers.

Most religious discrimination involves either the failure of the employer to offer reasonable accommodations for an employee's religious practices (such as time off for religious holidays or other religious duties) or harassment due to religious bigotry in the workplace.

Our attorneys will carefully examine the specific facts and circumstances of your termination, demotion, harassment or other workplace issue. We often work closely with economic experts to identify with as much precision as possible the full extent of your economic losses in cases involving wrongful or constructive termination.

For a free consultation about your legal options in a religious discrimination or harassment case, contact a lawyer at the Law Offices of Rheuban & Gresen. We accept all claims on a contingent fee basis — we collect no attorney's fees unless you win by settlement, judgment, award, etc.
