Fighting for Your Rights, One Case at a Time

Discrimination and injustice take many forms, but no one should have to face them alone. At the Law Offices of Sophia Zoë Kilmer, we give every client the legal support they deserve. These are the kinds of cases we handle.

Discrimination and civil rights

  • Employment Discrimination

    No one should lose a job or be denied opportunities because of race, sexual orientation or gender identity. If you've been harassed, wrongfully terminated or faced workplace discrimination, we will fight for your rights. The law protects workers from unlawful discrimination, and we're here to make sure those protections are enforced.

  • Housing Discrimination

    Safe and stable housing is a fundamental right, yet many people face eviction, denial of rental applications or harassment from landlords because of their race, sexual orientation or gender identity. If you have been treated unfairly in securing or keeping housing, we can help. Legal protections exist, and we'll work to make sure they're upheld.

  • Healthcare Discrimination

    Everyone deserves respectful and affirming medical care, yet discrimination in healthcare settings remains widespread. If you have been denied care, refused treatment or mistreated by medical providers because of your race, sexual orientation or gender identity, you have legal options.

  • Civil Rights Violations

    Everyone has the right to live free from discrimination. If you've been denied services, mistreated by law enforcement or had your fundamental rights violated, we're here to help. We work to hold institutions accountable and fight for the justice you deserve.

Injury and disability

  • Personal Injury

    Whether you were injured in a motor vehicle accident, a slip and fall or a dog bite, we have experience holding accountable the people whose actions led to your injuries. You deserve to be compensated for your injuries, and we have the experience to pursue that compensation.

  • Social Security Disability

    Sometimes, because of tragic accidents, diseases or medical conditions, people become disabled and can no longer work. We take pride in our experience helping deserving Americans fight for the Social Security Disability benefits they have often paid into their entire working lives. Let us fight for you.
