Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in New Jersey

racial discrimation at work

So, this is a really long situation and I will try to keep it short. So I work at a very large (reputable) company.

Now if a co-worker on several different occasions says ''why are black people ignorant'' and tells me particualar stories of how they are ignorant, and etc

I tell my boss but the girl is still allowed to work there. In the mist of all of this we moved to a different location (in the same buildinging). my area is in the storage room (i have nothing new) but she is allowed still work there, have a very nice cube.

This has made me very uncomfy and now i feel no other choice but to leave the postion.

There is so much more to thei story but I only have so much space to write.

Re: racial discrimation at work

You need to make a complaint as soon as possible. I can guide you through the process. I handle complaints like this before the EEOC and can handle your case on a contingent fee basis (no fee unless you win). However, I will need more facts. Feel free to give me a call. I don't charge for consultations. My number is 267.639,3105. Look forward to speaking to you. Oh, and you should know that once you file a complaint with the EEOC, it is DOUBLY illegal for your employer to retaliate against you for doing so. So you are protected that way too. The only important thing is that time is of the essence in these matters, so please call as soon as possible. Thanks.
