Employee Discrimination and Wrongful Discharge

New Orleans Employee Discrimination Attorney
Phone: (504) 525-2520

Located in New Orleans, attorney James Arruebarrena has been representing employees throughout Louisiana who have been discriminated against in the workplace, in violation of Louisiana and federal law (including Title VII).

Unfortunately, unfair treatment alone does not always equate to discrimination. To have a case, you have to show that something unfair happened because of a prohibited reason (i.e. race, gender, age, or disability). Mr. Arruebarrena can personally evaluate your case to determine if you have a case.

Our practice is focused on protecting employee rights, including handling discrimination claims on behalf of Louisiana employees. Mr. Arruebarrena understands the stress and hardship you face when you are held back, singled out, or terminated because of discrimination. He has been handling discrimination claims since 1993, and has earned a reputation for being tough on employers and for getting results.
