I live in CA, have a discrimination case, and recently got a lawyer.
Just prior to getting a lawyer, the other side's attorney engaged in settlement talks with me offering very ridiculous numbers. She started at $1500 in exchange for a release and NDA.
Shortly after making her second, insultingly low offer, she called me names and offered her legal opinion on the merits of my case.
Is that kind of bullying just unfair or illegal?
Tell them I need to take this to the jury
Mannnnn that POV around the 20min was priceless!! Damn 🫠😩😂... Hurry up and fuckin wait, and the ride is expected to be anything but smooth and clean smmfh lol
Could you possibly dive deeper into "Did you prove what you needed to prove?"? .. Have there been cases where the evidence was blatant to your average observer, BUT, because the case couldn't technically prove what needed to be proven(that harrassment took place, etc), the company won.
Or the judge being able to overturn on a similar issue.. the jury decides in employees favor, but the judge, based on technicalities overturn it.
My lawyer came to my house for the first time over a week ago, so what do you think about that? I've never had a lawyer come to my house. Anyways, he also told me that trial could be as soon as spring..

Vincent - May you link - the video that talks about how damages are calculated. I thank you sir.
I could not find it in the playlist either
So wish my case was being tried in Bronx in lieu of Nassau County
Hello Vincent, can I keep a company laptop after terminated There is a retaliation case is processing now,. The laptop has all emails, messages with time stamps.
Prob not. Get a portable hard drive and back it up. OR forward all your emails to an outside email not on their server. Make an account specifically for those emails, because the employer's attorneys could subpoena to see the entire contents of the email -- keep personal and business separate, essentially.

16:45 this was very helpful- thank you 🍀
Is Vince hitting on female jurors?
He doesn't have to. He probably spends his spare time running from gold diggers that want a handsome, intelligent and successful attorney with a good personality and generous spirit. Get your mind out of the gutter.
@@Wildgyspy It was merely a question. LOL
There's a huge difference on whether or not we want to hire an attorney and whether or not somebody will take our case.
What's the next step if you beat motions for a summary judgment in your case? Who decides the amount you get and is it good if you beat that step? can the defense still appeal? @lawofficeofvincentpwhite
Please help me fam my mental is very low do to the job I have audio of over 3 hours of evidence of the job talking bad about me and employees an say she is going to use my medical health to get rid of me. then 5 months later rite me up for being sick. I haven't called out nor been late.........
Schedule 3 to 5 free consultations with local employment attorneys, they are generally going to be cheaper than our firm. We have a playlist on how to make your case appealing for employment attorneys and a playlist on how to evaluate employment attorneys. Trying to put the tools at your disposal.
Haircut or gel?

Why do attorneys feel they deserve $1600 per hour for their billable work?
Vince, do you have an opinion on qualified immunity? The federal courts independently created qualified immunity allegedly to protect the federal courts from being overloaded with cases, given the high frequency of public servant misconduct. Should any court function as a legislative body?
Why do defense attorneys think they deserve $1,600.00 per hour for their work? Because they work they do is sufficiently complex and difficult that so few people complete it with a high rate of success that employers seeking counsel are forced to repetitively hire the same firms over and over and over again. And those firms are busy, and those firms can't hire just anyone as an attorney due to the aforementioned issue of few people being able to do this work. So those firms raise their rates instead of hiring more attorneys, in the hopes of keeping their caseload manageable sized by becoming wildly expensive.
@@JobAttorney A Physician/surgeon can expect to earn around $300 per hour, based on annual earnings of $600k per year. The surgeon is literally saving lives every day. I'm just not seeing how any attorney can expect to charge 5x the hourly rate of a surgeon. On the other hand, IF an attorney wins a large settlement on a contingency basis, it is completely understandable that they should expect to get a decent percentage of the loot.
@@viralsheddingzombie5324Surgeons usually don't own the operating theatre or hospital, and don't pay the nurses and admin staff themselves. Lawyers that charge $1,600 an hour aren't pocketing $1,600 an hour any more than a surgeon pockets $100,000 after a double bypass, even if the hospital bills $100k.
@@viralsheddingzombie5324 Well I fear you may be comparing apples to oompaloompas. A general surgeon might only be able to command $300/hour, but most people who are trained as general surgeons are capable of carrying out general surgery. Now if you take as our hypothetical instead a surgeon who is trained to carry out a single specific high complexity, high risk field of surgery and you stipulate that due the the unpleasant, complex and uncertain nature of that surgery only perhaps 1 out of 10 people trained in it actually succeed in routinely carrying out that surgery. Then add one last layer, that generally speaking the people who do succeed in that field of surgery for a time have an extraordinarily high burn out rate. You might imagine then that the surgeons who are successful in that specific field are far harder to come by, and so based on most economic models would be capable of demanding a far higher rate of pay than $300.00 per hour. And that second scenario, I would argue, is a better metaphor for the job of an employment attorney and perhaps can better explain why an employment defense attorney could charge $1,600.00 per hour.
