Check if your employer has an Employee Assistance Program (EAP). It sometimes includes free legal consultations. Also, many employment attorneys offer free initial consultations.

This sounds like a clear violation. Document everything and file with the appropriate agency. In California, you have strong protections under the Labor Code.

From an HR perspective, this is exactly the kind of situation that triggers EEOC complaints. Most companies will settle to avoid the investigation costs.

Don't resign — that weakens your leverage. Let them fire you if it comes to that. A wrongful termination claim is stronger than a constructive dismissal claim.
