Employment Law and Labor Law Experience

I have fifteen years of experience and have represented hundreds of individuals in state, federal and administrative employment 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.

Disability Discrimination

Grullon v. South Bronx Overall Economic Development Corp., 712 (N.Y. Co. 2000): I obtained a $125,804.89 verdict in case where I represented a former case manager of a work training center who alleged that his former employer terminated his employment because he was a recovering alcoholic. The jury awarded him $25,000 in compensatory damages, $50,804.89 in lost wages and $50,000 in punitive damages, following a three day trial. This case is significant because it is one of only a handful of disability discrimination trial verdicts where a recovering alcoholic plaintiff prevailed.

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.
