Be sure to consult with a lawyer regarding the appropriate forum for the filing of your claim.   If you file with the wrong agency and/or fail to file on time, this can result in you forever being barred from bringing a claim.  Your eligibility to file a claim with an agency will depend on where the conduct occurred, the type/size of the employer, the discrimination involved and many other factors.  This is for general guidance and is not legal advice and should not be relied upon.
