I've had success in using Bing to find local businesses. Just type in "lawyer <mycounty> <mystate>" or "employment lawyer <mycounty> <mystate>".
Or your city if you live in a more urban area.
Then give them a call and say something like "my employer is requiring vaccines as a condition of employment. My faith prevents me from getting a vaccine and I'm looking to find out what my legal options are".
From there whoever answers the phone will either politely tell you to go pound sand, or they will schedule a time to meet, probably on the phone. When you meet you will explain your situation. Listen carefully to what he has to say and take actual notes to research later for your own education. If they don't agree to a consultation meeting then ask if they can recommend another attorney who might be willing to talk to you.
It would probably help if you had a copy of your employment contract.
I'm not a lawyer but a letter from one to HR goes a long way toward cutting through bullshit. It will also paint a target on your back but filing one is basically a get-out-of-jail free card for about six months. If they fire or demote you after you deliver the letter then you go back to the lawyer and see if you can sue for some kind of retaliation or discrimination, obviously helps to not be a white male in that case.
Lawyer up. You can get a free consult from anyone legit.
