Employment Discrimination Lawyer Who Delivers
Employment Discrimination Lawyer – Fighting Workplace Bias in New York
No one should be treated unfairly at work because of who they are. Yet discrimination is still a daily reality for many employees in Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, and Long Island. It’s not just wrong—it’s illegal.
Attorney Supriya Kichloo is an employment discrimination lawyer in NYC who represents employees in all industries and from all backgrounds. She works directly with clients to challenge bias, hold employers accountable, and fight for fair treatment under federal, state, and city laws. Our firm also serves multilingual communities, offering legal help in English, Hindi, Urdu, and Spanish—so language is never a barrier to justice.
Equal Dignity
Discrimination Has No Place in the Workplace
It’s illegal for an employer to make job decisions—or allow harassment—based on a protected characteristic, including:
- Race or color – Being denied promotions, assignments, or facing racial slurs
- Sex or gender – Pay inequality, being passed over because of pregnancy, or treated differently because of gender identity
- Sexual orientation – Harassment or bias due to LGBTQ+ status
- Religion – Denial of schedule accommodations for religious observance, or targeted comments
- Disability – Failure to provide reasonable accommodations, or wrongful termination after a medical diagnosis
- Age – Forcing out employees over 40 or passing them over for younger workers
- National origin – Bias due to accent, birthplace, or cultural background
We also handle sexual harassment cases that create a hostile work environment.
Case Strength
How We Build a Strong Discrimination Case
Proving discrimination takes evidence, persistence, and a lawyer who knows the process. We help clients by:
- Reviewing performance reviews, emails, and company policies
- Documenting offensive comments or unfair treatment
- Gathering witness statements from co-workers
- Comparing treatment between you and similarly qualified employees
- Linking adverse actions (like demotion or firing) to a protected characteristic or protected activity
We can file a charge with the EEOC or the New York State Division of Human Rights—and if needed, take your case to court. Supriya’s experience includes representing employees in both agency hearings and federal court.
Understanding the EEOC & DHR Process
Many discrimination claims must start with an administrative complaint before going to court. Here’s how it works:
01
Filing a Charge »
With the EEOC (within 300 days in NY) or NY DHR (within 1 year).
02
Investigation or Mediation »
The agency may collect evidence or offer a mediation process.
03
Right-to-Sue Letter »
Needed to proceed to court in many cases.
04
Lawsuit »
If settlement fails, we take your case to trial.

FREQUENTLY ASKED questions
Employment Discrimination FAQ
Do I have to complain to HR before calling a lawyer?
Not necessarily. While using internal complaint channels can help, you should speak to a lawyer early to protect your rights—especially if you fear retaliation.
What can I recover in a discrimination case?
Possible remedies include back pay, front pay, emotional distress damages, punitive damages in certain cases, reinstatement, policy changes, and attorney’s fees.
How long does the EEOC process take?
It can take several months or longer. With a lawyer, you may be able to move forward to court after getting your right-to-sue letter, rather than waiting indefinitely.
