Miles & Stockbridge successfully represented a university research center in two cases, one for race discrimination and retaliation, and the second for gender discrimination and retaliation. These cases are of significant importance to the client because they were both brought by the same lawyer, who filed three prior lawsuits against our client and threatened several more. This attorney became a favored attorney for individuals at the center, and was very aggressive in pursuing claims and making very high settlement demands. It was very important to the client to defend against these claims aggressively, because the client did not want to be seen as an easy target for this attorney.
