Facing racial discrimination at work isn’t just unfair—it’s illegal. At Mizrahi Kroub, our New York racial discrimination attorneys are dedicated to helping you fight back. With over 50 years of experience, we stand up for employees facing unequal treatment, harassment, or retaliation, to make sure your rights are protected.
Imagine working hard to excel in your job, only to be overlooked for promotions, assigned less desirable tasks, or treated unfairly because of your race. Maybe you’ve endured offensive comments, unequal pay, or been excluded from opportunities that others were given. These aren’t just workplace challenges, they’re violations of your rights. We stand up against racial injustice in the workplace. As experienced New York racial discrimination lawyers, we’re committed to ensuring that employers are held accountable for illegal and discriminatory practices.
Race discrimination occurs when an employer treats an employee unfairly because of their race, color, or ethnicity. This can happen in hiring, promotions, pay, assignments, or workplace treatment. Examples of race discrimination include:
Discrimination can be overt or subtle, but both forms are illegal under federal and New York law.
In New York, employees are protected from race discrimination by federal laws like Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and state laws like the New York State Human Rights Law. These laws prohibit employers from making decisions based on race and require workplaces to be free from harassment and retaliation.
If you’ve experienced race discrimination, you have the right to:
At Mizrahi Kroub, we’ll guide you through the process and ensure your rights are protected.
Racial discrimination doesn’t just hurt your career—it impacts your self-esteem, financial stability, and mental health. Many victims feel isolated, questioning whether they should speak up or endure the mistreatment in silence. You don’t have to face this alone. Our experienced New York race discrimination lawyers have helped countless individuals take action against unfair treatment, secure compensation, and restore their sense of justice.
Taking on a race discrimination case without experienced legal representation can put you at a significant disadvantage. Here’s what you risk:
Missed Deadlines: Employment discrimination cases are governed by strict deadlines, such as filing a claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) within 300 days in New York. Missing these deadlines could result in losing your right to take legal action.
Insufficient Evidence: Proving race discrimination requires gathering strong evidence, such as documentation, witness statements, and performance reviews. Without an attorney’s guidance, you might not know what evidence is needed or how to collect it effectively.
Legal Complexities: Discrimination cases involve navigating federal, state, and sometimes local laws, each with its own procedures and requirements. An inexperienced approach could lead to errors that weaken your case.
Employer Tactics: Employers often have legal teams ready to challenge claims, discredit victims, or pressure you into accepting a low settlement. Without a skilled advocate, you might not receive the compensation or justice you deserve.
Emotional Stress: Handling a case on your own can be overwhelming, especially while dealing with the emotional toll of discrimination. Having an experienced attorney by your side provides support and reassurance throughout the process.

Employer retaliation, such as termination, demotion, or reduced hours, after reporting workplace discrimination or harassment is unlawful. Federal and New York employment laws protect you against this conduct. A workplace retaliation attorney or employment lawyer in New York can help you hold your employer accountable and seek compensation for the harm caused.
Deadlines vary. In New York, most racial discrimination complaints must be filed with the EEOC within 300 days of the incident. The New York State Division of Human Rights also accepts complaints. A racial discrimination lawyer in New York can review deadlines, preserve your rights, and guide next steps.
Victims of workplace racial discrimination may recover back pay, benefits, emotional distress damages, and in some cases punitive damages. Courts can also order reinstatement or workplace policy changes. An employment discrimination lawyer or racial discrimination attorney in New York can help you pursue the full remedies available under the law.
