Practice Areas: Employment & Labor, Appeals

I have devoted my practice to representing victims of severe harassment and discrimination in the workplace.  In this day and age, we simply cannot tolerate racism, mysogyny, or bigotry of any kind - and certainly not in the workplace.  I am very selective in the cases that I accept, making sure that my cases are significant and have a high likelihood of success at trial.  Because I work on contingency, I make certain that protecting against discrimination does not mean putting my clients in financial duress.

“Fighting for the underdog has always been important to me. Whether picketing in the living room as a young child for more ‘rights’ for my sister and me, or choosing the least skilled players during recess for my baseball team, I have always believed that it is important to fight hard for those who are not in a position of power.. Being a civil rights and employment attorney gives me an opportunity to do that every day – to fight for the underdog and to achieve a level of vindication for hardworking employees and whistleblowers who have suffered from intimidation, discrimination and retaliation at the hands of their employers. I consider myself extremely fortunate to be able to come to work each day and use my skills and experience to make a positive difference in someone’s life.”. -------------.
