Wrongful hiring practices
The Texas Employment Law protects against illegal hiring practices. A person, who was not hired for reasons that would not affect their performance, can take legal action. The McAllen employment lawyers at Pruneda Law Firm have the expertise needed to handle these cases.

Candidate characteristics
When an employer is looking at candidates for a position, they should consider the qualifications, experience, and how the individual will fit in with the company. If a candidate is not hired because of characteristics that do not affect how well the individual will perform, they should seek legal help immediately. These characteristics may include:
- Race
- Age
- Religious beliefs
- Sexual orientation
- Gender
It is unfortunate that some employers pass on perfectly qualified candidates for reasons that in no way affect the way the candidate will work. This act is illegal and if you feel you have been discriminated against for any of these reasons, you are entitled to take legal action on the matter.
