Discrimination, Harassment & Bias Violations
At O’Malley & Madden, P.C., we fight against discrimination and harassment under federal and state civil rights laws. Whether based on race, gender, disability, religion, national origin, age, disability, pregnancy, or sexual orientation, we stand up for those employees facing unequal treatment in the workplace. Our attorneys work to hold government employers accountable and ensure that all employees receive the full protection of their civil rights under federal and state law.
Government Misconduct
We represent public employees and contractors who are subjected to abuse of power by government entities, including retaliation for blowing the whistle on violations of law, misuse of funds, discrimination, or other official misconduct. Our firm brings claims for demotions, suspensions, terminations, blacklisting, coerced silence, and sham investigations aimed at punishing whistleblowers. We pursue relief under constitutional protections for free speech, due process, and equal protection, as well as 42 U.S.C. §1983 and applicable state whistleblower and anti-retaliation statutes.
Free Speech & First Amendment Retaliation
Employees who work for the federal, state, and local governments have the right to free speech, including in the workplace, and to be protected from government retaliation. If you have been unjustly targeted for protesting, speaking out against injustice, or exposing misconduct, O’Malley & Madden fights to uphold your First Amendment rights. Our firm defends those facing retaliation, censorship, or intimidation, ensuring that constitutional freedoms are protected against government overreach and suppression.
