Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file a discrimination claim in New Jersey?
Under the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination, you generally have 180 days to file a complaint with the NJ Division on Civil Rights. If you want to file a lawsuit, you have two years from the date of the discriminatory act. Federal claims under Title VII have a 300-day deadline for filing with the EEOC.
Can I be fired without cause in New Jersey?
New Jersey is an at-will employment state, meaning an employer can fire you for any reason that is not illegal. However, you cannot be fired for discriminatory reasons, for reporting illegal activity, or for exercising your legal rights. An employment lawyer can help determine if your termination was unlawful.
What damages can I recover in an employment lawsuit in New Jersey?
You may recover back pay, front pay, emotional distress damages, and attorneys fees. In cases of intentional discrimination, punitive damages may also be available. New Jersey does not cap compensatory damages under the NJLAD, unlike federal law.
