How to Spot Employment Discrimination

This CLE will explore the signs of employment discrimination that should be in the peripheral awareness of all lawyers, regardless of area of expertise.
Discrimination in the employment context is usually less than clear-cut and can be difficult to recognize – especially when you are not looking for it. This CLE will explore the signs of employment discrimination that should be in the peripheral awareness of all lawyers, regardless of area of expertise.

This presentation will discuss tips and best practices for lawyers to look for and spot employment discrimination. The discussion will focus on the signs to look for that indicate discrimination may be at play and will provide attendees with strategic questions to ask their clients to reveal the truth, even when discrimination is subtle or well-hidden. This presentation is designed for lawyers who do not currently represent employees in discrimination matters but want to have the tools to recognize when their client is the victim of employment discrimination.
