Women and men in America are entitled to equal treatment. That’s not an opinion, it’s the law. Jeff Holmes, Esq. fights to stamp out gender discrimination. Whether you’re a woman who’s been denied a mortgage for a new home, or a divorced father who’s gotten the short end of a child custody decree, if you believe your gender was weighed as a factor against you, I am here to help. I handle sex discrimination cases in a myriad of areas, including:

Divorced fathers often complain of prejudice in favor of mothers in family court. There are judges who see mothers as nurturers and fathers as providers, and rule that she should raise the children while he writes the checks. If you’re a father whose custodial rights have been unfairly limited simply because you’re the male parent, I can help with custody modification that puts you on an equal footing.
