You Don’t Have to Fight Them Alone
Discrimination in the workplace can heavily
impact an individual’s wellbeing, career, and
finances. Colton Workplace Discrimination
Attorney Damien J. Miranda
understands the devastation
that can potentially result from
this type of unethical, illegal
behavior. He works to protect
employees from overt and
subtle discriminatory
practices. If you suspect you are being
targeted by unfair treatment or
discrimination at work due to disability,
gender, age, race, religion, national origin,
sexual orientation, or pregnancy status,
DJM Law wants to help you gain justice.
Mr. Miranda has witnessed employer
discrimination firsthand in the past, and he
takes great pleasure in bringing the heavy
hand of the law against such offensive
employers. To discuss your concerns, contact

workplace discrimination cases.
Recognizing Workplace
Discrimination Violations in
California
Some forms of discrimination that happen in
the workplace are obvious, blatant acts,
whereas others take the form of more subtle
patterns that nonetheless subject an
employee to unfair treatment. Having
decades of experience identifying and
prosecuting illegal discrimination, Mr.
Miranda can put California’s strong anti-
discrimination laws to work protecting your
wellbeing in the workplace. His employment
law firm holds offending employers
accountable for their behavior when a
worker’s fundamental rights have been
violated.
The occurrence of discrimination in the
workplace can arise during all stages of
employment, including pre-employment
hiring, training access, assigning
responsibilities, promoting, and allowing
unfounded pay disparities. Some policies
may seem neutral or normal on the surface,
but if it is unnecessary from a business
standpoint and affects a protected group
disproportionately, it may be deemed
discriminatory. Colton Workplace
Discrimination Attorney Damien Miranda
analyzes your workplace’s policies/practices
to gather relevant evidence, create an
effective case, and bring to light any specific
acts or patterns of prejudice and
discrimination.
Fighting Discrimination by Legal
Means
When the Law Office of Damien J. Miranda
is on your side, you have an advocate who
understands not only the legal implications
involved in employment discrimination but
also the significant personal impact that such
treatment can impose on an individual.
Colton Attorney Miranda begins by clearly
documenting each occurrence of
discrimination, including disparate
treatment effected by workplace policies as
well as unfair disciplinary actions. By
documenting matters properly and
thoroughly, our firm can implement
aggressive legal advocacy along with down-
to-earth client support. We work with each
client to keep them informed of the legal
process at every stage.
California workers are afforded strong
protection by the California Fair employment
and Housing Act. Also known as FEHA, this
act protects more workers in California due
to the fact that it applies not only to large
employers (as federal laws do), but it also
applies to smaller employers with only five or
more employees. We support clients and
help them navigate both state and federal
anti-discrimination legislation so that all
possible avenues of legal justice are pursued.

represents employees in all types of
employment law cases.

Types of Workplace
Discrimination Cases We
Pursue
__________________
Age Discrimination
Some underhanded employers may try to fly
under the radar by labeling a discriminatory
policy as “workforce modernization” or an
issue one of “cultural fit.” Mr. Miranda’s job
and skills are in cutting through such
schemes and exposing them as
discriminatory. He works to protect
employees who are over 40 from age-based
layoffs, forced retirement, and
discriminatory hiring. Our firm knows well
the federal ADEA and California’s FEHA
requirements. We bring strong protection to
our clients’ cases, working to gain the highest
level of compensation for those targeted by
age discrimination and related practices.
Race, National Origin, and Color
Discrimination
Discrimination around national origin,
ancestry, and racial bias may at times seem
subtle, but the effect on an individual’s career
can be devastating. DJM Law will document
all patterns of discrimination, including
promotion denials and hostile workplace
environments. Lawyer Miranda stands firm
for equity in the face of discriminatory dress
codes, English-only policies, and other
culturally biased practices. Our firm works to
gain justice for clients and win sizable
damages for employees who were subjected
to racial or ethnic discrimination.
Pregnancy Discrimination
If an employer engages in pregnancy
discrimination, it may appear as forced leave,
termination of employment, or a denied
promotion. Mr. Miranda takes the necessary
steps to hold such employers accountable for
their discriminatory actions. He works to
make sure workers are provided every single
leave benefit and accommodation to which
they are legally entitled. California’s Family
Rights Act protects your rights before
pregnancy as well as during and after.
Mental and Physical Disability
Discrimination
When an employee has a hidden disability,
an employer commonly will not offer
disability accommodations –even though
these are legally required. Colton Workplace
Discrimination Lawyer Damien Miranda
compels companies to follow accommodation
requirements. Furthermore, he will pursue
damages for any disability discrimination
that has occurred. We act as strong advocates
for disabled workers and their rights. We
take the steps needed to force employers to
implement accommodations that properly
respect both visible and invisible disabilities.
Sexual Orientation
Discrimination
Even with the strong protection afforded to
LGBTQ+ employees via state legislation,
sexual orientation discrimination is
unfortunately still prevalent. Mr. Miranda
pursues such discrimination cases involving
benefit denials, harassment, and
discriminatory policies. He acts decisively to
protect your rights while maintaining strict
confidentiality regarding your case.
Religious Discrimination
Workplace religious discrimination can take
the form of an employer allowing a hostile
work environment against a worker’s religion
or the employer denying accommodations for
a religious practice. DJM Law believes in
your right to reasonable accommodations for
religious practices and observances as well as
religious expression. Colton Workplace
Discrimination Attorney Mirada has already
represented clients in such complex cases
involving workplace harassment, religious
dress, and scheduling conflicts, successfully
upholding the employees’ rights.
