Discrimination Lawyer in Arizona
Discrimination
Thunderbird Law Group fights for victims of discriminatory policies and practices. No one should be treated differently, or subjected to different terms and conditions of employment, because of the color of their skin, whom they love, or what they believe. Regardless of your gender or physical abilities, you deserve to work in an environment free from unlawful discrimination and harassment.
Unfortunately, despite all the progress we have made since abolition of slavery, women’s suffrage, and the passage of civil rights laws, illegal discrimination still occurs with surprising frequency in this day and age, and when it does, we are ready to stand with those victimized by it. We will help you understand your rights, advocate on your behalf, and give you a voice, so that together we can hold employers accountable for their unlawful behavior.
What Are Arizona’s Discrimination Laws?
There are several state and federal laws protect you against workplace harassment and discrimination when you are being treated differently because of your membership in a protected class or because of a protected characteristic such as race, age, sex, sexual
orientation, pregnancy, national origin, religion, disability, among others.

- The Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (29 U.S.C. §621, et seq.)
- The Arizona Civil Rights Act (A.R.S. §41-1461 et seq.)
