New York City Civil Rights Violation Attorney
    NEW YORK, NY, April 29, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- A Trinidadian employee of Interpublic Group of Cos. recently filed a lawsuit of great interest to New York civil rights violation lawyers at The Perecman Firm.

The lawsuit (No. 12-CV-2996) against Interpublic, the world's fourth-largest agency holding company, was filed by Joy C. Noel, for race discrimination.

12-CV-2996 COMPLAINT: http://www.scribd.com/doc/90364703/Fed-Complaint-04162012

"Employment discrimination on the basis or race still happens more often than anyone wants to believe, and it's against the law," said New York employment discrimination lawyer David Perecman, founder of The Perecman Firm, one of New York's civil rights violation law firms.

The civil rights violation lawsuit alleging employment discrimination in New York was filed in Manhattan federal court.

Complaints in the civil rights violation lawsuit include a "work environment where racial discrimination is condoned" and retaliation for complaining about workplace discrimination.

The job discrimination lawsuit also claims that Caucasian and light-skinned Hispanics receive higher salaries and more benefits than African-American or other dark skinned employees.

There are many different kinds of workplace discrimination. Race discrimination includes bias in any employment decision based on physical characteristics associated with ethnicity or race, including skin pigmentation, complexion and shade. Workplace discrimination based on race is a violation of federal law, New York State law and NYC law.

New York civil rights violation lawyers at The Perecman Firm also understand the law prohibits retaliation of those who may have complained of job discrimination or unfair treatment.

Noel is seeking $50 million in damages.

According to AdAge (4/20/2012), "lack of diversity among employees has long plagued" the advertising business.
