      It may seem that way, but on average 5% or less (usually less) of employment cases end up with a determination in favor of the complainant. Every person, and I'd be the same, believes their case is LOCK SOLID, a SLAM DUNK, etc. But the reality is the overwhelming majority of them will not prevail.

      Companies don't really care about bad press anymore. There is too much news from too many sources and any bad press for discrimination against employees gets drowned out in the echo chambers people tune into for their news. Don't think so? What is your opinion of Autozone (car parts place)? Good or bad? B/c they got hit with a HUGE 100 million dollar verdict in California for pregnancy and gender discrimination. Made the news. Did you hear about it? How about the down syndrome woman who sued Walmart and won, did you hear about that?

    If anyone is still here watching these videos, I’m gonna tell you right now if you have hired an employment, lawyer and the employment lawyer is free whatever you can get out of mediation take it. The stuff that Richard Celler says has uniform nationwide application. These employment lawyers can care less about what happened in the workplace you’ve been discriminated against. They hear workplace discrimination and a possibility of a quick $50,000 settlement. if you don’t take that, they’re probably gonna unload you at some point. No matter how much wages you are out of no matter how detrimental the discrimination was. Nobody really cares when these things go to court it’s about the two attorneys and an attorney is willing to get some insurance company to give you $50,000. Take it and run because that’s about all you’re gonna get. The discovery process the deposition process is all in favor of the defendants. The only time you will have a real shot at one of these cases is if the EEOC takes it up. That signals to the federal court that there’s something that really needs to be addressed. That doesn’t take the money and run.

    • @kevinbaldwinemploymentattorney
      @kevinbaldwinemploymentattorney 3 года назад +1

      Low end cases . . . . what does that mean? Most cases are single plaintiff cases with damages based upon lost wages and under most employment laws, the damages are capped. For instance, the down syndrome woman who won the $125 million dollar disability discrimination verdict against WalMart in Wisconsin? Due to legal limits on damages Walmart will only have to pay $350K in punitive and emotional distress damages. Having done over a thousand of these, and having tried some of the bigger cases in my state, I can tell you this video is spot on. Does it apply to class actions? No. But in those cases, the individual plaintiffs get even less money.

    My Attorney, Kevin Little did encourage Mediation because it would have exposed his Conflict of Interest representation to my prior Employer, Ralph Lauren. What would have been exposed were the following: 1. Subordinate Perjury Affidavit " Age Discriminated" was Atty. Kevin's manipulated Malfeasance Malpractices decision and instructed that was forced, intimidated, and coerced circle Age Discrimination or else won't represent you. #2. The Mediator and I would have discovered that Atty Little and PRL Amanda Costello had violated Attorney- Client Confidentiality. Atty Kevin Little willfully and without consent shared my Direct Evidence, my Chronological Timelines, Retaliated- Hostile Work environment Written Warnings and Wrongful Terminated, Direct Evidence of Racial and Disability Discrimination's written by Manager Blyth Stephenson and in-house EOC Amanda Costello and Ben Ashton, #3. Mediation would have EXPOSED that both Atty Little and PRL Amanda Costello-Ben Ashton had withheld Relevant Evidence, neglected to submit to EEOC Intake- Karen Watkins Direct Evidence that was written by Blyth called and stated to HR Sarah Bolton that I was the following: "A Nigger," "Stupid," "Crazy" " Ignorant," "Mis-match don't fit in," etc. #4. Exposed Nepotism on both Monica and Blyth discriminated in hiring friends pre-hired and post Employment. #5. Withheld Sales Reports that would have contradicted Blyth, Monica, and PRL Amanda Costello Position Statements. #6. I would have Discovered Atty Kevin's statement of Claims contradicted what I wrote and stated on the only day he agreed to meet with me 04/04/2006. #7. I would have discovered that PRL NEW in-house EOC Department was Schemes to overthrown, obstructed Federal Interference, and dismantled my EEOC Charges of my Constitutional Rights.
    #8. The EEOC Mediator and I would have realized that Atty Kevin and PRL Amanda -Ben and VP Andy Romeo had committed malicious Conspired Conflict of Interest to cover up PRL violated Civil Rights Practices and Labor hour-wage Fraud, Overtime Fraud and Commission Fraud against Client who is African- Americans.
    #10. I would have learned that Amanda Costello and Ben Ashton were NOT EOC Counselors but PRL' s personal Attorneys that misrepresented to gain trust of Employees and pretended to to bias.

      Here are the facts on damage caps under the federal law (if your case is brought for race, gender, sex harassment, national origin etc):
      When it comes to compensatory and punitive damages, a Title VII plaintiff is subject to the following damage caps:
      15 to 100 employees: $50,000.
      101 to 200 employees: $100,000.
      201 to 500 employees: $200,000.
      501 and more employees: $300,000.
      The only way to exceed this is if you are under uncapped state discrimination laws or have a Sec 1981 or Sec 1983 claim.
