CIVIL RIGHTS LAW & CIVIL LITIGATION EXPERIENCE

I have fifteen years of experience and have represented hundreds of individuals in state, federal and administrative civil rights discrimination cases alleging sexual harassment, pregnancy, race, disability, religion, retaliation, and unpaid overtime/wages, and accept many cases on contingency.

What sets me apart from other employment lawyers is that I take many cases to trial and obtain verdicts on behalf of my cllents. Consider the following examples of the jury verdicts I have obtained:

Sexual Harassment

Figueroa v. Savanar, 2002 WL 83667 (S.D.N.Y. 2002): I obtained a $200,000 verdict where I represented former female employees of a Bonanza Steakhouse who alleged that the owner/manager sexually harassed them. The jury awarded each plaintiff $25,000 in compensatory damages and $25,000 in punitive damages following a two and one half day trial.

Chadwick v. D.C., 56 F.Supp.2d 69 (D.D.C. 1999): I obtained a $400,000 verdict in case where I represented a former employee of the District of Columbia's Oak Hill Youth center who alleged that she was sexually harassed by her former supervisor. The jury awarded my client $400,000 in compensatory damages and the Court later added $63,981 in lost wages to the award following a five day trial.

National Origin Discrimination

Yousif v. Safeway, 97-CV-200 (D.Md. 1999): I obtained a $422,500 verdict in a case where I represented a former night stocker who alleged he was fired because of his national origin and other civil rights violations. The jury awarded him $22,500 in compensatory damages and $400,000 in punitive damages following a five day trial.

Federal Sector Administrative

Janyce Wiggins v. VA, EEOC CASE NO. 100-AO-7779X (A.J. Collazo, 2002): I obtained an award where I represented a VA employee who alleged she was not selected for a promotion because of prior EEO activities. The Judge awarded her the job she was not selected for, back pay, compensatory damages, and attorney's fees.
