Employment discrimination lawyers focus their practices on representing either individuals or businesses in civil rights cases. Federal law provides several statutory remedies for people whose rights have been violated based on their age, gender, race or disability. Cases often involve both federal and state law issues. Employment discrimination lawyers must be skilled in the litigation process, particularly with regard to isolating a particular pattern of prohibited conduct that is governed by the law. Attorney who defend cases focus on excluding the particular alleged conduct from coverage under the law, while those who represent plaintiffs seek to show that the alleged conduct is clearly covered by the law.
