Notable Cases

Elis For Rachael Inc. v. Yale University
The parties reached a settlement agreement to resolve a lawsuit in federal district court related to how students with mental health disabilities were treated by the University. The settlement will result in updated Yale policies that increase equity for students with mental health disabilities.


U.S. v. Nolan, – F.3d – 2020 WL 1870140 (2d. Cir. 4/15/2020)
We won a complete reversal of conviction on a four-eyewitness robbery conviction in New York’s highest federal appeals court on the trial lawyer’s failure to adequately challenge wrongfully tainted police arranged identification procedures or consult an appropriate expert witness at trial, resulting in the client’s immediate release from custody. On remand, the charges against him were entirely dismissed.


Dodd v. City University of New York, et al.
The court ruled that plaintiff can pursue her claims that CUNY and its administrators retaliated against her after she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and sought accommodations. In 2015, we had negotiated a settlement with CUNY to obtain accommodations. The court held that plaintiff sufficiently alleged that after the settlement she was subjected to numerous retaliatory acts, culminating in denial of tenure and denial of reappointment as an associate professor.


Della Pietra v. Poly Prep, et al.
First case to recognize a private right of action for whistleblower retaliation under New York’s Non-Profit Revitalization Act. The matter was resolved shortly after the firm successfully defended a motion to dismiss.


Browne Sanders v. Madison Square Garden, Isiah Thomas, and James Dolan
The jury ruled in plaintiff’s favor on her claims of sexual harassment and retaliation and awarded $11.6 million in punitive damages. The case settled before the district court ruled on plaintiff’s claim for lost wages and benefits.


Davis v. Abercrombie & Fitch
We represented over 60 loss prevention supervisors and agents in Abercrombie & Fitch stores in New York and New Jersey who were not paid overtime, as well as several individuals who asserted claims of discrimination and retaliation.
