A live-in nanny receives unpaid overtime
Background: A woman worked as a live in nanny for a couple in Long Island. When she was first hired, she was expected to work approximately 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, to help the parents with their young children. She worked for them for several years. Over that time, the hours and job responsibilities continued to expand, but her pay did not increase. In fact, the family she worked for often times would pay her days or weeks late, and would dismiss her complaints that she was working many more hours than they were paying her for. Additionally, they occasionally asked her to “help them out” by working in the kitchen at a restaurant the family owned.
Outcome: We were able to prove unpaid wages and this employer paid a six-figure settlement to our client.
Recovered for the client:
$30,000
Our Client in fashion receives a settlement after discrimination
Background: Our client's manager required that she carry heavy garments to photo shoots, and be on her feet for 8+ hours in a day, despite doctors notes saying that this would harm her health and she could not do so. She ended up getting in an argument with her boss, and was terminated.
Outcome: We were able to negotiate a large settlement with her employer for discrimination based on disability, and for violating the Americans with Disabilities Act requirements of providing reasonable accommodations.
Recovered for the client:
$90,000
A janitor in New York receives a six-figure settlement
Background: My client who was a janitor in upstate New York had been diagnosed with anxiety, for which he was prescribed medication. His supervisor was bullying him and constantly making jokes about my client’s mental health issues, and the fact that he was in his 50’s having anxiety attacks. My client complained about the behavior, but his complaints were ignored.
Outcome: I was able to recover over $28,000 for my client and made sure that he was transferred to another. My client was no longer being discriminated against or harassed and has received the justice he deserved.
Recovered for the client:
$28,000
Over $50,000 recovered for a victim of age discrimination
Background: A 47-year old man came to us after being fired from his job as a salesperson in a tech company. He and several of his co-workers, all around the same age, had been fired for “performance” reasons. They had all been replaced with much younger salespeople. His boss had previously made several jokes about having a “geriatric sales team” and made comments like “maybe we should send you guys to sell to nursing homes”. These salespeople were fired and offered small severance packages.
Outcome: We were able to convince the company to accept responsibility and provide large severance offers to the fired salespeople. Each person received approximately >$50,000 more in severance.
