Q: I need to find a pro-Bono lawyer. I was discriminated at work by my employer. He told me how great i was at work prior
to finding out i had aspergers (high functioning autism). He then started treating me differently then everyone else. He had this chart with two columns a good side and bad side. He had everyone in the office participate in partisipate daily in the chart. After the 1st week ppl got tired of doing it and only filled in the bad column. After I stated I didn't want to do it anymore because it was biased with him getting upset saying i had bad days when they werent he fired me. I kept him on track better then the other assistants. He only started it after he found out about my aspergers (high functioning autism) and there was another new hires that worked there shortly after i started that didn't have this good/bad chart done to her! Also there was another assistant that worked 7 months prior to my start date who also didnt have the paper done to her. Also i found out about two previous employees that were fired for their medical reasons that worked their prior to me.
A: You don't need a pro bono attorney, you just need an employment law attorney to take you case on a contingency basis. That means they only collect if the win or settle the case for you. You can use the find a lawyer link above to do that.
