Although Massachusetts is a generally progressive state, employment discrimination still occurs. Matthew K.

If you feel that you have been wrongfully terminated or otherwise mistreated at your place of employment, an employment discrimination lawyer will help make your situation right.
The primary venue for adjudicating employment discrimination claims is the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD). This state agency is tasked with receiving and investigating complaints of discrimination. Before submitting any statement to the MCAD, it is best to speak with an employment discrimination lawyer.
