Federal EEO Investigation Lawyers

When a federal employee feels he or she has been discriminated against in the workplace, one of the first things he or she must do is undergo an EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) counseling process. When this 30-day counseling period is over, the EEO counselor helps the employee file a formal complaint. The federal Office of Civil Rights then conducts an investigation into the potential discrimination. The EEO investigation is a crucial step in the process of combating workplace discrimination.

If you or someone you love is a victim of workplace discrimination, contact our federal EEO investigation lawyers as soon as possible.

The EEO Investigation Process

EEO investigations may take no longer than 180 days. The investigator attempts to determine the facts of the case and to formally document any discriminatory practices. However, the investigator does not provide legal advice or make a final decision. The investigator will:

• Interview the employer, employee, and other parties involved in the complaint
• Review documents related to the complaint

The Office of Civil Rights has the authority to dismiss all or part of your discrimination claim based on the EEO investigator’s recommendations. If this occurs, you may appeal the decision. A federal discrimination attorney can help you navigate this and other EEO procedures.
