Title 5 Employment Lawyer
Experienced Title 5 Attorneys Serving Federal Employees Nationwide
When filing an appeal to the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB), Title 5 V.A. employees are treated similarly to other federal employees or employees subject to collective bargaining agreements. Title 5 V.A. employees are generally not subjected to any specialized codes when filing a complaint about discriminatory practices, or when receiving a disciplinary action.
In general, a Title 5 V.A. employee includes any non-medical federal personnel. At Pines Federal, when you contact our Title 5 employment attorneys, they can personally help you file complaints regarding discriminatory practices or whistleblower reprisal actions with the EEOC as well as appeal discipline such as terminations, demotions, and suspensions.
