Discrimination /Title 7 - Employers

Chicago Metro, IL Title 7 and Discrimination Attorney

When accused of discrimination or Title 7 violations, employers are entitled to the same representation an employee would receive. False allegations of discrimination can tarnish the image and reputation of high-profile companies. At the Law Offices of Philip W. Collins III in Naperville, Illinois, we aggressively represent our business clients facing those serious charges.

Proactive Steps in Communicating With Your Employees

We work with employers in litigation and consulting roles when they are dealing with discrimination and other Title 7-related matters. Employers can take proactive steps, including detailed employee handbooks and notices placed in high-traffic areas. Their obligation is to provide their staff information on what to do if they feel victimized by discrimination. Encouraging employees to report discrimination, conducting prompt investigations, and having disciplinary procedures in place goes a long way in maintaining open relationships with staff and preventing contentious Title 7 litigation.

Representing Your Company in Discrimination and Title 7 Litigation

At the Law Offices of Philip W. Collins III, we recognize that even the most careful preparation may not prevent litigation. We can help you put all the right procedures in place, but that cannot prevent discrimination from occurring. Handling the matter internally may not be enough and the aggrieved employee may file a lawsuit. When that happens, we will bring our experience in both sides of employment law to benefit your company. A perception that your organization discriminates based on race, religion, national origin, gender, age, or disability can have devastating effects.
