Explain which federal (and state, if a state is given) employment laws may protect a worker based on the type of issue (e.g. discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination) and/or the protected class involved (e.g. race, sex, age, disability, pregnancy). Returns the relevant statutes with citations, who they cover (employer-size thresholds), filing deadlines and agencies, and available remedies. Use this to ground an answer about a worker’s legal protections. Deadline guidance covers private-sector and state/local government workers; federal employees follow a separate process with a much shorter deadline (45 days to contact their agency's EEO counselor). Educational information, not legal advice.
Type of workplace issue, e.g. "discrimination", "harassment", "retaliation", "wrongful termination", "unpaid wages", "disability accommodation".
US state (2-letter code or full name) to include state-specific protections and the correct EEOC filing deadline.
Whether the employer is private, state/local government, or a federal agency.
Protected characteristic involved, e.g. "race", "sex", "age", "disability", "religion", "national origin", "pregnancy".

}Find public-source employment-law attorney listings near a US location. Returns source-attributed identity, firm, location, and contact data sorted by proximity. Person-specific filters and fields apply only where the underlying directory supports them; Google Places metrics are labeled as firm/office listing data, never individual ratings. Listings are not state-bar verification or an endorsement.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| lat | number | Optional precise latitude. Overrides city/state when paired with lng. |
| lng | number | Optional precise longitude. Overrides city/state when paired with lat. |
| city | string | Optional city to tighten the search center (e.g. "Tampa"). |
| limit | integer | Max attorneys to return (1–25). |
| state | string | US state — 2-letter code or full name (e.g. "FL" or "Florida"). Required unless lat/lng given. |
| language | string | Filter on attorney-supplied language data. Most listings are public office records that do not publish it; when none in range do, the tool returns total 0 with unsupported_filters rather than silently implying no attorneys are nearby. |

Given the facts of an employment situation — claim types, protected class, employer, state — analyze how similar real cases in the corpus were decided. Returns the aggregate plaintiff (employee) win rate, settlement rate, typical damages range, the topics courts discussed most in opinions employees won vs. lost, and a few representative example cases. Counts are returned at three levels (nationwide, the federal courts of the state's region, and the state) with a detailed breakdown for one level: who won, award amounts, what happened at each stage, and topics. Relay which level a figure describes. A level with few opinions returns counts without a win rate. Each example says what happened and why it matched. Topic rows record what opinions discussed, not what courts found. Educational statistics from published opinions: never present a historical percentage as this person’s probability of winning. Not a prediction or legal advice. In structured stages: won and wonPct count opinions the worker won in whole or in part (wonPct leaves rulings sent back out of its base), and sentBack counts rulings sent back to a lower court. wentForward and wentForwardPct include rulings sent back to a lower court and are kept for compatibility.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| level | string | Which level the detailed breakdown and examples describe: "national" (default), "circuit" (federal courts of the state's region), or "state". All three levels' counts are returned either way. |
| state | string | Two-letter US state code the situation arose in, e.g. "FL", "CA". |
| law_ids | array | Related law ids, federal or state, e.g. ["title-vii","adea","ada","fmla","flsa","fl-fcra","ca-feha"]. |
Given an employment attorney name (or profile slug), return the federal employment-law cases on file in which that attorney appeared — case caption, court, year, nature-of-suit, and the side they appeared for when on record. Use this when a user names an attorney and wants their public litigation history. Facts only, sourced from federal court dockets. Attorney identities are algorithmically matched; ambiguous and lower-confidence matches are excluded. One case is one normalized court+docket number, so duplicate source rows do not inflate the count.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | Number of example cases to return (1–25). Counts reflect all cases on file, not just these. |
| attorney* | string | Employment attorney full name (e.g. "Jane Doe") or their workers-rights.com profile slug. |

}Plain-English guide to the 9 stages of an EEOC discrimination/retaliation charge, from pre-filing through resolution. Call with no arguments for an overview of all stages with typical durations; call with a stage number (1-9) for a deep-dive on that stage: what to expect, how long it takes, the key tip, and do/don't guidance. Use this whenever someone asks what happens after filing with the EEOC, how long the process takes, what a position statement or rebuttal is, or what to do at the stage they are currently in. Covers private-sector and state/local government workers; federal employees follow a separate EEO process with a much shorter deadline (45 days to contact their agency's EEO counselor).
| Argument | Type | Description |

}Given an employer/company name, return distinct federal cases and trusted published employment opinions that involve that employer, the breakdown of outcomes (employee wins, employer wins, settlements, dismissals), the most notable recent opinions, AND the count of federal docket records on file (cases that may not have a written opinion). Use this when a user names their employer and wants that company's litigation history + footprint.

| limit | integer | Number of example published opinions to return (1–25). The total count and outcome breakdown reflect the full corpus, not just these examples. |

}Concrete checklist for a worker who senses termination coming or is in a deteriorating work situation: what to write down, which records are already theirs to gather (pay records, documents they were given), and how to list everything else so an attorney can ask the employer to preserve it. It does not advise copying or forwarding material from an employer’s systems. Use this whenever someone says they think they are about to be fired, fears retaliation is escalating, mentions a PIP or sudden access changes, or asks what to do before reporting discrimination. Sections: 'today' (highest-leverage, minutes matter), 'this-week', 'quiet' (low-priority prep). Time-sensitive — employers often revoke system access during the termination call itself.

}Search published employment-law rulings from our research corpus by keyword, law, court, federal circuit, state, outcome, and date. Returns published opinions with citations, outcomes, procedural stage, employers, claim types, recorded monetary amounts, and links to the full opinion. Use this to ground any claim about how employment cases have been decided. Results are quality-filtered (low-confidence and junk rows excluded).
| Argument | Type | Description |

| court | string | Filter by CourtListener court id, e.g. "scotus", "ca11" (11th Circuit). |
| limit | integer | Max rulings to return (1–25). |
| query | string | Lexical search across case name, opinion excerpt, stored summary and employer. Every word must match; a match does not verify a claim or holding. |
| state | string | Two-letter US state code the case was filed in, e.g. "FL", "CA". |
| circuit | string | Filter to a federal appeals circuit (the appeals court plus its district courts). Preferred values: first-circuit, second-circuit, third-circuit, fourth-circuit, fifth-circuit, sixth-circuit, seventh-circuit, eighth-circuit, ninth-circuit, tenth-circuit, eleventh-circuit, dc-circuit, federal-circuit. Display forms like "Eleventh Circuit" or "11th" are also accepted. |
| Minimum individual-profile rating. Office/business ratings are never treated as an attorney rating, so this matches only hand-managed profiles and returns nothing where none exist. |
| radius_miles | integer | Search radius. Defaults to 100mi for broad statewide coverage. |
