Featured Case Study
Successful Defense Strategies Applied to Company Sued for Discrimination.
- Issue: A medium-sized company received a claim for discrimination by a former employee. The company did not have employment practices liability insurance (EPLI) and came to the Hamilton Law Firm to handle their defense.
- Process: Ayesha Hamilton, Esq., sat with the clients to understand the facts of the case, to develop litigation strategies, and to identify the issues, witnesses and argument strategies. Attorney Hamilton served as trial counsel and conducted depositions, obtained expert opinions and reports, and handled all phases of the discovery and litigation process.
- Results: Ayesha’s pre-litigation strategy resulted in the EEOC issuing a “no cause” letter. However, despite the same, the employee sought to file suit in state court. Ms. Hamilton’s defense strategies during depositions, mediation and the course of the case resulted in a very favorable settlement for the company.
