Race Discrimination Attorneys In Kansas City, MO

When Employers Violate Your Rights

Simply put, employers don’t always play by the rules. Sometimes they ignore the laws that protect their employees. Whistleblowers should be protected, not punished. An environment that encourages sexual harassment should never be tolerated. Discrimination based on age or race violates basic rights.

You Need an Attorney with Experience, Knowledge and Unique Insight

Employment law attorney Mark A. Jess, the founder of our firm, has secured over $9 million in verdicts, judgments and settlements on behalf of his clients. He has also won multiple jury trials. That success comes not only from his experience and legal knowledge, but also from his background in defending large corporate employers from lawsuits involving illegal termination.

That unique insight is invaluable whether you have been denied rightful wages and overtime or lost your job while on a pregnancy leave.
