Charlotte Sexual Orientation Discrimination Lawyer

“Chris Strianese was invaluable at a time when it appeared my options were limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed practically impossible. His calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself and my family. His response time was exceptional and his guidance/knowledge was remarkable throughout my entire case. I am eternally grateful for his service and I hereby recommend Mr. Strianese without reservation.”

Lisa S.

“Chris was wonderful to work with and made me feel at ease. As I am sure most clients feel when facing possible litigation, I was anxious, frustrated and overwhelmed. He was professional and thoroughly answered all of my questions. His knowledge of the law and ability to set realistic expectations was crucial during a time when it would have been easy to feel powerless. And even though we were dealing with this situation during the holidays, Chris was always responsive. I would confidently recommend Strianese Huckert and Chris Strianese.”

Ashley J.

“Highly recommend Strianese Huckert! I spoke to a couple of other lawyers about my case but once I spoke to Tamara, I knew she understood me and had my back. She was very responsive to all my questions and concerns. Her and Chris both gave me excellent advice regarding my case. I was very pleased with how my case turned out.”

Maria B.

“My experience with Chris and his firm was exceptional. He was responsive and answered my inquiries with professionalism, careful consideration and provided follow up to provide me with comfort when dealing with a difficult situation. He never spoke from the hip but was diligent in his review of my situation and advised me with reasonable explanations and background. I have dealt with many lawyers both personal and professional and I would recommend Chris without hesitation.”

Patricia R.

“Strianese Huckert put my mind at ease by responding timely and providing straight-forward legal advice that I could understand. Had an emergency employee legal situation and I emailed Strianese Huckert in a panic. This was my first time needing an employment lawyer. Tamara Huckert took the time to provide enough direction that same day to put my mind at ease. Strianese Huckert ultimately helped my business navigate the entire legal situation by being present, supportive and knowledgeable.”

Federal Law: Sexual Orientation Discrimination is a Form of Sex-Based Discrimination

In the landmark Bostock v. Clayton County decision, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that discrimination based on sexual orientation is an inherent form of sex-based discrimination. The nation’s top court found Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination in the workplace based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Title VII applies to all employers in North Carolina with 15 or more total employees.
