How Do I file a Discrimination Claim in Wisconsin?

Picture
First, you should contact an experienced Milwaukee employee rights attorney for guidance. ​A discrimination claim can be filed either with the state administrative agency, the Wisconsin Equal Rights Division (WERD) or the federal administrative agency, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Consult with an attorney to pursue a lawsuit against an employer to give yourself the best shot at a fair outcome, whether that means an out of court settlement or going to court.
