Why Should I Take Action?
Gender discrimination can make victims feel powerless. But rest assured, federal law is on your side, and there are many reasons why it serves your best interest—as well as that of other workers—to take a stand if you have suffered sex discrimination by your employer:
You can collect financial compensation.
Losing your job, being passed over for a job you are capable of performing, or being harassed due to your gender can take a serious toll on your quality of life. By filing a lawsuit with the help of our gender discrimination attorney in Sacramento, you could collect a settlement or jury award that can compensate you for lost wages and help you on your way to finding another job.
You can hold your employer responsible.
Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, it is illegal to discriminate based on gender, race, religion, and other protected classes. You do not deserve to suffer the setbacks and hardships of discriminatory action in the workplace, and your employer does not deserve the ability to mistreat you or any other employee without consequences. Gregory Thyberg is a lawyer who can help you take a stand.
You can help make the workplace more equitable for others.
If an employer feels they can take discriminatory actions against you based on your gender, disability, or other protected class, there is a good chance they will do it again. In fact, this may empower other employers to take similar action. By asserting your rights with the help of a gender discrimination lawyer in Sacramento, you can demonstrate to your employer and their colleagues that this illegal behavior has repercussions, and potentially keep others from suffering similar mistreatment.

What Is Considered Gender Discrimination?
Gender discrimination in the workplace involves unfair treatment of an employee or job applicant based on that person’s gender. This involves any condition of employment, such as:
- Hiring
- Firing
- Job assignments
- Training
- Pay
- Benefits
- Promotions
- Discipline
An employment practice or policy that applies to employees of all genders may also be considered illegal if it is unnecessary and could be used as a way to exclude certain genders. Pregnancy discrimination can also be considered gender discrimination, and shares characteristics with gender identity and other sex-based discrimination that California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) prohibits. Our law firm is led by an attorney who is prepared to help you identify gender discrimination and take action if you have suffered any form of gender discrimination, from harassment to being denied a job.
Examples of Gender Discrimination
Because it violates state and federal law, employers will usually try to hide gender discrimination or offer excuses for it, making it difficult to identify. Common forms of gender discrimination include:
