One of my favorite cases this year.

One of my favorite cases from this year has just been resolved. You might wonder why it stands out to me. Unlike many of my other cases, which often involve unpleasant individuals committing terrible acts while their colleagues cover for them, this situation was different.  In this case, there was a creepy professional, I know its a theme, but in this case after some prodding the organization did the right thing. They protected my client, put her in a postion where she could do her job without having a complete nervous breakdown.  The with a little more prodding took actions to terminate the pervy professional and negotiated a settlement with my client. And though it was not the kind of award she could have gotten had the organization done the wrong thing and this case had gone all the way to a jury verdict, it was an amount she was satisfied with and she got to keep the job she loves. That is a win. MORE ORGANIZATIONS SHOULD DO THE RIGHT THING! The horror of workplace sexual harassmen
