It doesn't sound like you're being treated fairly, but taking it up with HR/office manager that's already on you for "issues" probably will just make things worse. I have experienced and seen situations where bullying and bad faith opinions are taken as evidence and justification for official actions (write ups etc). In most states employers have a lot of latitude with hiring and firing. If you've only been there a year, just cut your losses. Spend that energy on finding a new job instead of fighting to stay at a place that wants to treat you badly.
Also, bringing this up with HR and then being fired, could be considered retaliation. I would mention that your co-worker is sleeping at work and coming and going at will.
Not sure exactly how big your office is (i.e., total employees and attorneys) but in our office, our assistant and I share (most) all tasks (even though she is still technically training). Complaining to the office manager about something not being your task, is not going to get you anywhere but on the "not a team player" list. As for the legitimate performance issues you need to work on, learn from them and move on. If you feel that you've performed something well and the concern is not warranted, then share that in a professional manner. Do not waste your time worrying about another employees performance as that won't get you anywhere either. You might come off as trying to do the job (or complain about) of the office manager.
Filing a complaint with the EEOC will not help you find a better job. And that suit will get you absolutely NO WHERE. Leave it be and move on. They WILL miss you when you are gone because of the sleeper.
Is there a reason you think you’re being targeted? Your age, for instance?
Yes. The slacker person is 21 and male I am over 40 female.
