Our prior wrongful termination lawyer cases
Over 1,500+ employment cases handled by Manifest lawyer-partners
$60k recovered for RACIAL DISCRIMINATION IN THE WORKPLACE
Background: Our client worked for years at a department store without an issue. When she received a new manager, who was a white woman, things began to change quickly. The manager consistently made inappropriate comments about our client's natural hair and even suggested wearing a wig for better customer response. Despite reporting to Human Resources, the issue persisted, and our client was eventually terminated, allegedly for performance reasons, shortly after expressing discomfort with the inappropriate comments.
Outcome: We were able to show that our client was discriminated against based on her race, and that she was fired in retaliation for complaining about discrimination. Our client ended up recovering approximately $60,000 from her former employer.
Result:
$60,000
$80k settlement for disability and age discrimination
Background: During a routine doctor’s visit, our client found out that he had a heart condition which required surgery. When he provided the doctor's note to his boss, the response was dismissive, expressing concerns about the financial impact on the company and implying our client was getting too old for the job. The boss suggested delaying the surgery, but when our client insisted on prompt intervention as advised by the doctor, he was terminated from his job.
Outcome: We argued that our client was retaliated against for attempting to exercise his rights under the FMLA, and that he had also been discriminated against due to his disability and his age. We ended up recovering approximately $80,000 for this client.
Result:
$80,000
$55k settlement for RETALIATION in the workplace
Background: A nurse came to us after she had been fired from her job. She noticed that her company was submitting double invoices during her time for reimbursement from Medicaid. When she mentioned what she thought was a paperwork error, her boss got very defensive. She was fired 2 weeks after that conversation.
Outcome: We were able to successfully argue that she was fired in retaliation for complaining of what she thought was a case of the company illegally over billing Medicaid. The company ended up paying her approximately $55,000.
Result:
$55,000
$36k recovered for RACE AND ORIGIN discrimination
Background: Our client, originally from Ghana, was employed in a retail position in upstate New York. Her manager, an immigrant from Vietnam, consistently made racially charged comments during her time at the job. Repeatedly stating negative stereotypes about West Africans, the manager even expressed regret in hiring our client. After filing a complaint with Human Resources, our client faced retaliation, and shortly thereafter, she was terminated on grounds of "chronic tardiness."
Outcome: We argued that our client was being subjected to discrimination based on her race and national origin. We were able to recover approximately $36,000 for her.
Result:
$36,000
