Pennsylvania Discrimination Attorney

Unequal Pay and Glass Ceiling Claims for Women

Although women in large numbers have served ably in the professions and in executive positions for a full generation, arbitrary and unlawful barriers to advancement continue to block the career progress of high-achievement women. If you feel that the glass ceiling has kept you from rising to the level your credentials and performance would indicate, contact an employment discrimination attorney at the Law Offices of John A. Gallagher.

In some cases, we can show that your inability to advance in your career is the result of sex discrimination. In others, we can investigate and prove violations of the Equal Pay Act. For women whose working relationships have suffered from chronic frustration with the glass ceiling in professional or executive employment situations, the best approach might be to negotiate a severance package on favorable terms.

Our lawyers advise women in such industries and professions as the following:

• Banking and finance
• Academia
• Law, medicine, accountancy and other professions
• Communications and media
• Pharmaceuticals
• High tech and electronics
• Insurance
• Manufacturing

Subtle employment discrimination might well be at work in your company's failure to promote you, even in the 21st century. A recent study by a leading international auditing firm found that the glass ceiling presents less of a barrier for women in developing countries than it does in the industrial economies of the west.

For the advice of an experienced employment discrimination lawyer about your options for resolving problems related to unequal pay or inability to advance, contact the Law Offices of John A. Gallagher in Paoli or any of our other five locations.
