Q. I was terminated from a bus operator position in Montgomery County Maryland for a background check.

February 11, 2021

A: So, hire a lawyer and go meet with the investigator or do a 3-way on the telephone with your lawyer and the investigator. How are you going to move forward if you don't know why you were terminated? First things first.

Q. I am an African American male , that has been dealing with haraasment, retaliation n more from my work place.

October 1, 2020

A: Well, you didn't pose a question so there is no answer necessary. However, if you felt your rights were being violated why didn't you file an EEOC Complaint? You may still be able to. Your facts were so thin, it's impossible to tell what your rights may be.

Q. I'm an officer the US Public Health Service station at a Federal Agency. Can I sue for harassment and retaliation?

July 29, 2020

A: It depends on what statute your are suing under.

Title VII provides that a court, in its discretion, may award reasonable attorneys' fees to the prevailing party. ... That determination is relatively clear when a plaintiff proves his or her discrimination case and a favorable judgment or court order is entered in the plaintiff's favor.
