You Have Rights. We Help You Enforce Them.
Federal and South Carolina law protect you from discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and abuses of power — but those laws only matter when someone enforces them. That’s where we come in.
Cases We Handle
- Employment discrimination — race, color, sex, age, religion, national origin, disability, pregnancy
- Workplace harassment — including sexual harassment and hostile work environment claims
- Retaliation — termination or adverse action after reporting discrimination, wage violations, or unsafe conditions
- Wrongful termination — discharges that violate federal or state law
- Wage & hour claims — unpaid overtime, minimum wage violations, misclassification
- Police misconduct & excessive force — Section 1983 civil rights claims
- FMLA & ADA violations — denial of leave or reasonable accommodations
Time Limits Matter — Don’t Wait
Many civil rights and employment claims have strict filing deadlines:
- EEOC charges: typically 180 or 300 days from the discriminatory act
- South Carolina Human Affairs Commission claims: 180 days
- Some federal civil rights claims: 1–3 year statutes of limitations
If you wait too long, you may lose your right to bring a claim. Document everything you can — emails, text messages, witness names, dates — and contact us as soon as possible.
