Representative Cases  

A pregnant employee of a major corporation was terminated because of absenteeism caused by her difficult pregnancy.  A suit was filed claiming pregnancy discrimination.  Fair compensation was obtained allowing the client to buy a house, take college courses and provide for her family.  

An African American temporary worker had to withstand racial jokes, epithets, discrimination, hostile work environment and finally termination at a steel-manufacturing facility before engaging the firm.  A fair monetary settlement was reached arising from negotiation which supported him until he could find another job.  

An African American client had been a warehouse worker for a national employer was fired for absenteeism of which Caucasian employees were not disciplined.  I was able to obtain a six-figure settlement to our client's claims against the employer.  This monetary resource allowed the client to regain the sole custody of his daughter from his drug-addicted ex-wife.  

A terminated worker was originally granted unemployment compensation by the Ohio Department of Family services.  The employer disputed the compensation and asked the ODJFS for a reconsideration which was denied.  The employer subsequently filed an appeal with Unemployment Compensation Review Commission and a phone-hearing took place wherein worker did not have legal counsel.  The hearing resulted in a reversal of the unemployment compensation that the employee had received and he was required to pay $13,000 back to the agency--money he had already spent to clothe, shelter and feed his family.  This firm appealed the determination to the county's Common Pleas judge which resulted in a rare ruling for the employee.  Therefore, he did not have to pay back his compensation and was able to collect his Ohio state tax refunds which were being held.  

The contract of a top administrator of a local school district was not renewed because he was arrested for a misdemeanor drug crime in which he was found not guilty .  He was the best-qualified for numerous other administrative positions in the District but was denied each of them.  A suit was filed claiming breach-of-contract and violation of state school laws.  A monetary settlement was reached during mediation which provided the client with the monetary resources to save his house and move forward with his professional life.  

An administrative assistant for a north eastern Ohio municipality was being sexually-harassed by the mayor.  Because of client's complaint and negotiation by this firm, over a period of 11 months prior to filing suit, the mayor resigned, diversity training was implemented and an equitable monetary settlement was reached. Client is now taking course-work to become a physician's assistant.  

An experienced registered nurse working for a large health-care provider was terminated because she would not submit to an unwarranted urine test in conflict with the employer's own employment handbook.  A suit for violation of privacy, defamation, false imprisonment, civil assault and retaliation was filed in the Federal Court.  A six-figure settlement allowed this client to retire and build a new swimming pool at her home.

A large area newspaper published, without consent, a local photographer's copyrighted photo.  This photo in the newspaper had the dimensions of only one inch by two inches.  Even so, a $30,000 settlement was reached with the newspaper publisher represented by a New York Times Square law firm.  A few months later, the same copyrighted photo was published, without consent, by the newspaper's parent media organization which resulted in another nice settlement .
