There is no room for racial discrimination in the Florida workplace.

There is no room in the Florida workplace for ethnic slurs, offensive or derogatory racial comments. Such behaviour deserves no protection under the law. When it results in an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment or otherwise interferes with an employee's ability to perform their job, it constitutes racial harassment and discrimination. The Law Office of Pelayo Duran is especially committed to asserting the rights of employees affected by racial harassment.

Our trial attorneys will also vigorously litigate claims in which an employer has attempted to retaliate against an employee for exercising their rights under anti-discrimination laws. It is unlawful for an employer to retaliate against any individual for opposing discriminatory employment practices. It is also unlawful for an employer to retaliate against an individual for filing a discrimination charge, testifying, or participating in any investigation or proceeding which involves race discrimination.
