Los Angeles LGBT Discrimination Lawyer
Los Angeles Sexual Orientation Discrimination Attorney
In 2020, the Supreme Court ruled in Bostock v. Clayton County, Georgia that terminating employees due to sexual orientation or transgender status was a violation of Title VII. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a federal law prohibiting discrimination due to an individual’s sex or gender.
According to the Supreme Court, “discrimination based on homosexuality or transgender status necessarily entails discrimination based on sex; the first cannot happen without the second.”

Identifying Harassment and Discrimination
Harassment based on a worker’s LGBT identity generally occurs when an employer creates or knowingly permits a hostile work environment. This adverse treatment is because of the employee’s sexual orientation or gender identification. This environment negatively affects the employee’s ability to perform their work and causes them mental and emotional distress.
Discrimination can manifest in many forms, including:
- Refusal to provide necessary training
- Rude or offensive comments or gestures
- Ostracization and exclusion
- Negative performance reviews
- Disciplinary action
- Retaliation
- Denial of promotions, benefits, or other compensation
- Wrongful termination
Some discrimination can be subtle and less visible than a wrongful termination or overt harassment. An employer may allow harassment, including sexual harassment, to continue when they’d otherwise put a stop to it.
Similarly, an employer may have unequal expectations for you as they do for your coworkers. They deny you preferential work assignments or schedules based on your sexual orientation or gender identification.
What to Do If You’re Experiencing Discrimination
If you are being discriminated against due to your membership in the LGBT community, it is crucial to document everything you can. You will also want to report the discrimination and harassment to your human resources department according to your company’s guidelines.
You should then consult with a Los Angeles employment discrimination lawyer experienced in handling LGBT cases, like ours at Kramer Brown Hui LLP.

Thanks for reaching out! We imagine you found us because you’re looking for real, human lawyers — and that’s exactly what we are.
To help us give your case the careful attention it deserves, we kindly ask that you share your story in your own words rather than sending anything written or polished by AI tools. We know AI can feel like a helpful shortcut, but it actually makes it harder for us to understand what’s really going on in your situation, which means we’re less able to help. Hearing directly from you is what allows us to evaluate your case properly.
If a disability, language barrier, or anything else makes it difficult to communicate with us, please just let us know. We’ll happily work with you to find a way that works.
