These acts make it against the law for anyone to discriminate against you because of your religion, race, color, national origin, age, gender, marital status, height, weight, arrest record or disability.
MDCR complaints must be filed within 180 days of the date you believe you were discriminated against. To file a claim with the MDCR, contact the nearest office below. More information about filing a claim with MDCR can be found at MDCR Website.
For civil cases, the statute of limitations ranges from three to 10 years. A Michigan civil litigation lawyer can review your case and explain if you are still eligible to file a claim.
The most common method of proof for discrimination cases is circumstantial evidence. Under Michigan law, the employee must not merely raise a triable issue that the employer's articulated reason was pretextual, but that it was a pretext for unlawful discrimination.
Your case can last anywhere from a few short months to several years before you reach a settlement or receive a judgment from the court. Working with an employment discrimination lawyer can help cut the amount of time your case takes to settle.
