A Comprehensive Guide to Navigating the EEO Federal Sector Litigation Process

The Spiggle Law Podcast Episode 48:
Navigating the EEO process, particularly in the federal sector, can feel daunting.
Many employees are ill-prepared for the time-intensive and potentially financially
draining aspects of pursuing legal action. This episode addresses those very
concerns with clarity, depth, and considerations for your next step.
Michael Ludwig, a Senior Attorney at The Spiggle Law Firm, joins Tom for this
episode to help guide you through the three critical stages of the EEO process:
the informal stage, the formal complaint stage, and finally, the EEOC hearing and
litigation stage.
He provides listeners with cost estimates for each phase, which goes a long way
in helping you assess your own situation and prepare accordingly. You will also
learn how non-monetary terms, such as accommodations or transfers, often play
a significant role in the resolution of these cases, offering another layer of
consideration for those entangled in such disputes.
Tom and Michael discuss the multiple 'off-ramps' or points during the process
where you can decide to settle or exit the litigation. These are crucial junctures
where you can reassess both your financial and emotional capacity to continue
with the case. Mike’s emphasis on these options is reassuring for those worried
about being locked in a protracted legal battle without a clear exit strategy.
