    Why would an attorney want to settle so fast and low without filing through the EEOC process? especially if you have really good evidence backing the claim? Is it they just want to get in and get out ?

    I was working for a well known defense contractor in Poland mid 2020. I was complaining of pay and safety issues then was involved in what was the third vehicle accident withing the couple months working there. My acting supervisor was involved in and told me to do the thing that ultimately resulted in the accident. Many safty issues. During the week of the investigation i asked for my medical insurance card that i hadent recieved yet. After the week of investigation i was quickly fired and sent home for loss of confidence in my abilities. Any advice?

    I work for a govt agency, I am the aggrieved, disabled, the issue is my boss did a semi annual review and basically said you dont do as much work b/c your disabled. Then she railraided me for a position because or my disability. Then my case was sent to an Admin Judge. This week we received an order from the AJ to reach a settlement. How often in this case do you think my demands will be met? They arent ridiculous, and fair i think.

    • @JobAttorney
      @JobAttorney  Před 2 lety +4

      Damages should be an interactive process. Clients will often try to stick in 30 or 40 additional sources of damages that simply aren't recoverable under the law, but it is the attorney's job to explain why those damages are not recoverable.

    • @JobAttorney
      @JobAttorney  Před rokem +2

      I would think you would need that attorney to handle the settlement agreement, but if the attorney is ghosting you then you may want to discuss a fee dispute. If they are not responsive to you, an argument could be made that they did not earn their contingent percentage.

    Good morning.
    My neighbor has a CZcams video circulating about how Homeland security did several violations and are wanting to settle because hes now posting videos. Their supervisors lied and he caught their eeo investigator on video taunting him about altering his statement resulting. They erased the evidence from the federal portal but my neighbor printed it out and used it to destroyed them in his rebuttals.
    The basis of the claims were all accepted by the way due to the evidence.
    Theyve even had people show up at his house and want to settle this. I told him to call you. Theyve asked repeatedly for him to settle but i told him to get representation. Can he call you? Weve been reaching out for 3 weeks since they granted him a hearing. Homeland security it trying to keep this out of court. Can you help him? The video has over 6000 views amd counting
