Hello. Currently I'm working on a claim against my former employer regarding discrimination and retaliation. I have viewed several of your videos and have learned good information. Your videos are straight forward and easy to understand. Thanks. Steve
I feel there is a great need for videos to be made available for the average worker who has no clue of the laws protecting him and his job. Your possess the sincere qualities, understanding and communicate skills of converting legal terms to understandable information for us. Many thanks again Arkady. Steve
Hi, Arkady! This is a brilliant RUclips. You did an awesome job for me. And, I am glad I now live in Arizona. CA has gone off the deep end in so many ways and it would have been unhealthy for me to have gone one living there. ~ Walt Puciata
I'm a Filipina 4.5 feet tall, third shift stocker suing Walmart for Retaliation without a lawyer. Walmart's lawyers tried everything in their power to dismiss the case. They almost cry in the courtroom last hearing on May 11, 2017 because the judge order to send the case to trial. The trial will be on June 29, 2017 before the special referee. I am up $5000.00 already. I will focus on retaliation after, settlement and ambush confidential agreement.
your lawyer is sapoda b helping u not u helping them. the employee is damaged needing help but u must be persistent with your lawyer and understand what you mean...be 100% honest.
I showed Atty Litttle what was in my employment file that Blyth left out on her dest for all to see. Blyth Stevenson correspondences between HR Sara Bilton and Fare to You in-house EEO Ben Aston.
Thanks. How would be the best way to do this? I'm sure you understand with so much information you don't want to bog down an attorney, yet not leave pertinent issues out. Do you represent state employees?
Thank you for providing valuable information. I was "laid off" today after emailing my fit-for-duty letter to my employer. I had a back fusion on November 22, 2016. My FMLA expired on January 24, 2017. I requested additional time off through the ADA the week prior to my FMLA expiring. on January 31, 2017, a letter was sent to me informing me of the approval of my request for additional time off. In the same letter, I was also told that they (my employer) was hiring a new person in my position due to me requesting additional time off. This letter was drafted just seven days after my FMLA expired. I hadn't had my 3 month post-op yet. I live in Michigan and I want to make sure I choose an attorney that will represent me because they believe I have a case vs. an attorney that will only represent me if it's a cut and dried case. I have all emails and letters and feel very confident with filing a suit for harassment/discrimination /retaliation. What questions should I ask to make sure I choose the correct attorney for me?
Hi, Tina. Thanks for sharing your situation. I would start with asking people for a referral to a good, competent employment attorney. Some other things that you should be looking for are someone who you feel comfortable talking too, someone who isn't too overconfident or pompous, and someone who seems to be knowledgeable in the relevant area of law. Thanks,.
manager made derogotry comments about my religon, ethnic background. i complained to management and they never did anything. after i complained to HR and they never did anything. i was fired shortly thereafter. in my email to HR i complained of harassment but didnt use specific situations. will those come back and haunt me? HR told me i was fired for performance issues what can i do?
You should discuss your termination in greater detail with a good local employment attorney. More facts are needed to determine your legal and practical options.
What if I was sent home for an unknowingly 6 days after a discrimination complaint, so they can look into it, then having to call back on the 6th day because I received no calls, texts or letters. I was told to come in, then I was fired. Fired in retaliation of my discrimination complaint.I strongly believe. Also on the unemployment claim they lied and said I quit. Which was 100% false.
It's possible that you have a legitimate claim, but more information is needed to determine that. You should contact an experienced employment lawyer to discuss your legal options.
You can make a case for illegal failure to hire. Those cases are more difficult for several reasons - (1) any wage loss is speculative, since there is no way to tell how long you would have been working for; (2) the employer can come up with a variety of reasons of why they chose to hire someone else, and disproving it as often an uphill battle to say the least.
Hello, sir. I am not familiar with your specific situation, but I believe that a lawyer should listen and then explain to his client why the client is not correct or is not doing the right choice as far as pursuing any legal claim or legal strategy. If they lawyer and a client cannot agree, then they should not continue working together.
@@ArkadyItkin thanks sir for your response. Actually the case is like this: 1. I was appointed as Floriculture officer in the department of Floriculture in a state called Jammu and kashmir in India.in year 2006 on contractual bases. 2. After a period of about 2 years ,I was forced verbally to do tampering in service records of one of employee in my office. This verbal pressurization was done by concerned director of the department followed by district officer concerned . 3. The case of that employee was lying in court for regularization. 4. I hesitated to do so and cleared the reason before the director,that I request for some written instructions for the matter.as the concerned employee's case is subjudice.how can i touch his service records.what justification should I give in the court,if asked for.and I am on contractual bases,How can I take the unofficial step like tampering. 5. i requested the concerned director to shift me to other place untill the job is done by any willing official. 6 .After all this happened. The concerned director terminated me from my service without giving me a single notice. 7 .From that day my service case is in Hon'ble court.from last eleven years I am waiting for justice. 8 .i can't understand how to make my lawyer to fight the case effectively. I am Fed up with judicial system in India particularly in our state Jammu and kashmir. 9 .Many times I decided to withdraw my case but at the same time my soul doesn't allow me to accept injustice. 10 .In these years my life has been changed into a hell. 11. i am confused what should I do.plz guide.
Due to your videos I was well prepared and in the end although I wanted to go to a jury trial, I was pressed to settle and did.
Basically, don't deceive yourself and be honest with yourself and approach the situation objectively...thanks for sharing!
He asked me if I had prior lawsuit. I did share what was on my resume and employment application .

Steve, do you have an attorney, or are you going through EEO? I'm going through age discrimination right now.
Very helpful. Simple and easier understanding.I have a question if you do show up at court,what happens

Hi Walt. Thank you for your kind words and I am glad you are doing well. What you say is sad but true. I hope AZ is treating you well.
You prepared me for my three depositions in my FMLA and Human Rights Act 1964 case. I was told I did well with a B+-A.
Thank you for your kind words. I am glad you found my videos useful.
Great video 👍👍 i really like this attorneys style.

wrong title of video -- it should be "share your negative points with attorney"
I showed Atty Litttle what was in my employment file that Blyth left out on her dest for all to see. Blyth Stevenson correspondences between HR Sara Bilton and Fare to You in-house EEO Ben Aston.
What if it's a failure to promote, and age discrimination? This was amazing by the way.
Thanks. This really depends on the specific facts of your case. You should discuss it with an attorney.
Thanks. How would be the best way to do this? I'm sure you understand with so much information you don't want to bog down an attorney, yet not leave pertinent issues out. Do you represent state employees?
Hello, Yes we do represent state employees. You are welcome to e-mail me directly and we can discuss your situation in great detail next week.

He did ask me if I had been arrested. I told him no.

I also shared negative facts. Atty Litttle copied the 3 or 4 written warnings.
If you can prove that you were rejected from a position for an illegal reason before employment began, could you still press charges?
