You know something was wrong. But can you prove it?
Discrimination cases are rarely won by outrage alone. The law requires evidence, timing, credibility, and a clear connection between what happened and the discrimination you allege. Unfortunately, no one hands you a neatly organized case file when your job, housing, education, access, health, or financial security is already at risk.
In this thoroughly revised and expanded second edition of How to Win Your Discrimination Case, civil-rights lawyer and former investigator Jana Lomax, J.D., shows you how to turn a painful experience into a case another person can understand, investigate, and evaluate.
Drawing on her experience investigating civil-rights complaints—and successfully pursuing a discrimination case of her own—Lomax explains how decision-makers examine allegations, evidence, witnesses, defenses, credibility, and damages. Her approach is candid, strategic, and grounded in the reality that unfair treatment is not always unlawful and unlawful treatment is not always easy to prove.
Inside, you will learn how to:
• Determine whether your case is strong, weak, or simply unfinished
• Identify the legal theory and elements you may need to prove
• Build a reliable timeline and organized evidence file
• Use comparators, patterns, timing, and unequal enforcement effectively
• Expose contradictions, shifting explanations, and possible pretext
• Anticipate the other side’s defenses before they appear in a position statement
• Write a focused complaint that an investigator can actually follow
• Protect your credibility, preserve evidence, and avoid costly mistakes
• Document damages and evaluate what your case may realistically be worth
• Prepare for investigation, mediation, settlement, a right-to-sue notice, or litigation
The book also includes practical worksheets, evidence trackers, complaint frameworks, credibility tools, and candid features such as Investigator’s Note, Reality Check, Case Builder, and Girl, Don’t Do That.
Whether your concern involves employment, housing, education, public accommodations, government services, retaliation, harassment, denial of accommodation, or another civil-rights setting, this book will help you separate what felt wrong from what can be proved.
You bring the facts.
This book will help you build the file.
