Employment Discrimination Lawyer in Las Vegas

Employment discrimination occurs when an employer treats you worse because of a protected characteristic — race, sex, pregnancy, disability, age, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

Jonathan D. Roven represents Nevada employees — not employers — in employment discrimination disputes across Las Vegas and Clark County.

Warning Signs

  • Unequal pay, hours, or promotions compared with similarly situated coworkers
  • Harassment tied to a protected trait
  • Sudden discipline after disclosing pregnancy, disability, or religion
  • Termination shortly after complaining about bias

Nevada and Federal Protections

Title VII, the ADA, the ADEA, the Pregnant Workers’ Fairness Act, and Nevada’s NRS Chapter 613 protections may apply. Many claims require a charge with the Nevada Equal Rights Commission (NERC) or the EEOC before filing suit.

What To Do Next

  1. Write a timeline of key events and save emails, texts, and reviews
  2. Compare your treatment with coworkers outside your protected class
  3. Avoid signing a severance release until counsel reviews it
  4. Request a consultation before filing deadlines expire

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a employment discrimination lawyer in Las Vegas?

If your job, pay, or working conditions changed after protected activity or because of a protected characteristic, speaking with an employment lawyer early can protect deadlines and evidence.

Is Nevada an at-will state?

Yes. Nevada is generally an at-will employment state, but employers still may not discriminate, retaliate, or violate wage, leave, or contract rules. See our at-will guide.
