Janice Thomas Secures Defense Verdict Following Two-Week Jury Trial
Lamson Dugan & Murray LLP is pleased to share that Janice Thomas recently secured a defense verdict on behalf of an employer following a two-week jury trial.
The plaintiff, a former employee, alleged that she had been subjected to a hostile work environment by patrons based on her gender. After two weeks of testimony and presentation of evidence, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the employer.
Employment discrimination claims involving allegations of hostile work environments often require careful evaluation of workplace policies, supervisory responsibilities, and the factual circumstances surrounding the alleged conduct. Successfully defending these matters demands disciplined trial preparation and the ability to clearly present the evidence within the framework of the governing law.
Thomas’s result reflects her experience in defending employers in complex workplace litigation and guiding clients through trial with steady, focused advocacy.
