We specialize in representing businesses in employment litigation and consultation. Discrimination charges brought by employees can expose businesses to substantial financial risk. Businesses must take prompt action in order to minimize such risks. Paul Luskin represents businesses where a charge of discrimination has been received, or where an employee has filed a lawsuit in State or Federal Court, alleging discrimination in employment. Women prevailing in such cases have won substantial verdicts.
Businesses are justifiably concerned when such allegations are made, even if they are false.
However, as difficult or threatening as these allegations may appear, as with any other employee claim, being prepared with the right strategy can minimize the risk to your business. That is especially true in dealing with this sensitive subject. Losing their job is a traumatic experience for most people. The best way to minimize the risk of wrongful discharge litigation is to maintain an ongoing relationship with our office. Working together, we can help you develop strategies that will reduce the risk of wrongful termination claims and put you in a strong position to resist and defeat such claims if they arise.
