Workplace Discrimination Investigator And Litigator

Discrimination based on race, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender or pregnancy is unlawful. There are significant remedies available for individuals who feel they have been victimized at work. Richard Mucci understands this and is committed to investigating and addressing employee concerns about treatment in the workplace.

Any discrimination claim or defense starts with a comprehensive investigation and case evaluation. Relying on his past experience as an assistant district attorney and his investigative background, Mr. Mucci has the expertise to conduct a thorough investigation and case evaluation.

What To Expect During The Case

Every claim of discrimination starts with a filing at the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD). MCAD is an administrative state commission with its own set of regulations and procedures.

An investigation will begin at MCAD when the complainant files a charge outlining the discrimination. Customarily, the charge must be filed with MCAD within 300 days of the alleged act, unless it’s a continuing act. The respondent then has 21 days to file a response. The complainant has the right to rebut the response.

MCAD will hold an investigative conference before issuing a finding. If MCAD finds probable cause, then the matter moves to a public hearing. After the public hearing, MCAD has the power to award damages to the complainant.

Richard Mucci has experience litigating at MCAD, as he has represented both employers and employees at MCAD in pursuit and defense of claims of discrimination, a hostile work environment and retaliation.
