Employment Super Lawyer JP: "In discrimination cases, always be suing."
Переглядів 1,1 тис.Місяць тому
In the vast majority of employment discrimination and retaliation cases, companies will never get real and make a reasonable settlement offer unless you file a lawsuit. Even once you file a lawsuit, you cannot maximize your position in these cases unless you are willing to go the distance. That means you have to put in the work and trust the process. No lawyer is going to do this and 100% commi...

Переглядів 218Місяць тому
In many states - including Florida - it is illegal to record a phone call or conversation without the other party’s consent. Those states are called two party consent states. In Florida, recording a conversation without the other party’s consent is actually a felony. Don’t record conversations with HR, Corproate or your manager and think that’s going to help your case. It will just backfire and...

What if youre a small business owner and got sxly harassed AND azzaultd. I am beyond confused by what recourse there is if your landlord did xyz things and you don't have an HR dept?
Jpzzzy the bald headed meany back dropping gems!
You gotta get involved in suing lawyers and litigants that lie in family court.
@@RobertTanguay I would if it was economically viable. I know how messed up that arena is. But I’m not the solution to all the world’s problems. I can’t do it all.
I am a CPA who utilizes fixed fees for the majority of my service offerings. How would you determine a fixed fee for an engagement which you are familiar with the subject area but the variables involved are unpredictable and the timeline to resolution undetermined? Do you use a retainer method? Do you fall back to a billable rate?
Great video and it definitely humbled me as to what a hostile work environment is.
🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate the insight
Whe

I sent u an email on your web paige
Youre def an inspiration! Keep killing it man
SICK STACHE

We can litigate cases in Kentucky --- We can litigate cases anywhere if the case is strong enough. We would just partner up with a local lawyer.
What if I reported a new job opportunity and was sent home before I could complete my shift because of that

Jp. My attorney filed an appeals with the ky court Of appeals but didn't pay court fees. What will happen?? Can I pay them or does he have to
😁 I love how ghetto you sound....yet you are knowledgeable and a leader in your field.
If by ghetto, you mean I sound like a brilliant grown ass man.
You meant he sounds like a relatable human being with passion and vigor. Unlike the vapid, souless vampires in Biglaw.
Amen…keep the faith, get up and leave 🔥
Good evening I have a case what would I have to do to get a consultation ?

COPIES copies copies of EVERYTHING
I filed a complaint with the EEOC and submitted 140 pieces of evidence. I caught the former employer’s attorney lying over and over in her position statement. I filed a strong rebuttal. I don’t know where to go from here Please help!
The EEOC is a waste of time. The EEOC has no real power. If you have a real case of discrimination with clear evidence, then you should be able to find a lawyer. In real cases, you almost never get what the case is worth unless your lawyer is willing to file a lawsuit and do the work.
As an employee I wish we didn't have to submit the production of evidence to the other side - it gives them a chance to change their narrative and prepare not to get caught up in their lies.
Nah, we still catch them in lies all the time.

My name is Alan Adams I was fired from calling the Ford harassment hot line cause I was getting harassed by fellow co workers and the company or union wouldn't do anything about and my vehicles were damaged of over $17,000 in damages
My name is Alan Adams from Kansas City Missouri I was terminated for calling the Ford harassment hot line
Turn your volume up.I can't hear you
I was fired the day after they finished their "investigation" into my sexual harassment report. Top performer.
corporate america is full of b-s-ery
Yes. Same in personal injury.
There are states that are one party consent states, and in that situation recording can be very strong evidence.
Yes, that's why I said that this is based on Florida. But people need to be REALLY careful thinking they know the law, are in a 1-party state, and can just hit record. Way too complicated these days given remote work etc.
This is hot shit - true lawyer here.
You are being lazy and dishonest by only taking easy cases were plaintiths are called the N word and told they are being fired because they are black, or a women or some other protected class, and then calling those cases "real cases". Most companies never call you racial slurs and tell you directly they are discriminating against you. But they still discriminate and the emotional and economic damage is just as real. And a true skilled attorney could win that case even without the direct evidence.
I'm in a position with a coworker name joe who dropped n bombs. He later went to HR and falsified a sexual harassment story on me and I was fired.
If I was opposing counsel and saw this video, I would NOT let you in front of a jury lol. "Hey so what was that settlement demand again?"😂😂
This is exactly the right video for me at the right time. The comments about Plaintiff side employment Lawyers is exactly right.
Mr. Pollard, do you represent federal employees before the Merit Systems Protection Board?
Your attitude towards the corporate shenanigans is refreshing. Wish I had you in my corner right now, but I'm fighting the good fight🫡
Great things take time and involves a lot of commitment. This absolutely includes legal representation in cases of this nature. This must be extremely complex. @Jonathan, what is the statue of limitations on employment related discrimination cases?
Did you give advice for cases in other state that aren’t represented by lawyer?
No. I don't advise people I don't represent. If you have a really strong case (and have watched my videos explaining what types of cases we take and what a strong case looks like), then you can contact our office. We take cases nationwide if they are strong enough.
