This case involved employer sexual harassment. The client, an attractive, married, 30-year-old woman, was physically and psychologically abused at her job-site every day. She worked for a multi-billionaire, who would constantly communicate with the client in extremely graphic, sexual detail. He threatened her if she would not participate in various sexual acts and he physically attempted to interact with her, even though she fought him off. The client needed to keep her job, as she had a family to support and was virtually trapped by this predator.
– RESULT –
Our attorney, Gregory W. Coleman, was instrumental in settling the matter within ten days in our client’s favor.
Critton, Luttier & Coleman LLP represented an employee of a Palm Beach condominium who was injured when he was crushed against a wall by a 700 lb sub-zero refrigerator that was being moved down a flight of stairs. Because he was working within the scope of his employment, his sole remedy against his employer, the defendant, was a limited recovery permitted under the workers compensation law. Upon investigation by the firm, it was determined that a third party was negligent in the manner in which they attempted to move the refrigerator. The third party was not entitled to immunity under the law.
– RESULT –
After filing suit, Mark Luttier was able to resolve the claim against the third party and obtain a settlement from the workers compensation carrier and a waiver of the medical lien resulting in a settlement to the client in excess of $1 million.
