Hi,
Good luck! I hope that everything works out for you.I have a discrimination case that the EEOC is looking in to. I was referred to an attorney who handles employment discrimination by the Epilepsy Foundation, but I can't afford to pay $200 per hour. I will wait to see what the EEOC tells me and if they recommend that I get an attorney, then I will look for one who will take my case on a contingency basis.
I think that if we stand up for our rights, eventually there will be less discrimination. Take care.

This is an update on the situation I described before.
I have one attorney who's told me that not wanting to renew a lease because of seizures is not acceptable. She wanted to be 'proactive' and let the Housing Authority know that they were also doing wrong. That, by just giving me a voucher to find another place, they were agreeing with the landlord's illegal reasoning. We requested that HUD continue their payments to the landlord even though the landlord wanted me out. We don't know their response yet.
I have another attorney who'll help, but it requires that I move, of course. Then, I'd be suing the management.
I sort of feel like I want to stand my ground also because it is discrimination without a doubt...but a better place and money would be nice, too.
Not sure what I'll be doing, actually.
