Huntington, West Virginia, Workplace Discrimination Attorneys

Last updated on June 30, 2025

In West Virginia and across the United States, employees have certain protections when seeking employment or career advancement opportunities. You should be hired or denied work opportunities based on your skills and qualifications, not because of your age, gender, race or other protected characteristics that have no bearing on job performance.

If you have faced workplace discrimination from an employer in Huntington, the attorneys at Bouchillon Crossan & Colburn, L.C., are dedicated to standing up for your rights and protecting your career. We understand what is at stake when it comes to your employment, and we are committed to helping you fight against unlawful discriminatory practices.

Types Of Discrimination Cases We Handle

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits employers from discriminatory acts when hiring, promoting and terminating employees. Despite this being federal law, many Huntington employers still discriminate against qualified employees:

  • Age discrimination
  • Race discrimination
  • Gender discrimination
  • Pregnancy discrimination
  • Religious discrimination
  • Disability discrimination
  • Nationality discrimination

You deserve the same employment opportunities as anyone else based on your merit and experience.

Recognizing Signs Of Workplace Discrimination

Everyone deserves a safe and respectful work environment, but Huntington employers may engage in discriminatory behaviors that impact your career and mental health. Common warning signs include unfair treatment such as being held to higher standards than other employees, offensive comments about protected characteristics, unequal pay for similar positions, exclusion from important meetings or communications, and denial of training opportunities or promotions given to similarly qualified colleagues.

If you believe your Huntington employer is discriminating against you, begin documenting negative actions and collecting evidence such as emails, recordings, and witness statements.

We represent clients from all industries and employment levels throughout Huntington. No matter what type of work you perform, discrimination can still occur. You deserve fair treatment as both a person and employee, regardless of your race, gender, age or other protected factors.
