Firm Faces $200M Claim for Gender Bias

Greenberg Traurig is in the midst of a lawsuit after receiving a complaint that the firm engages in “systematic, firm-wide” discrimination of females.  The allegations also came with a demand for $200M.  The EEOC – the government body responsible for enforcing employment law – found reasonable cause to believe that Greenberg Traurig engages in such discrimination in violation of Title VII and the Equal Pay Act.

While much time is spent reviewing the firm’s lawyer’s malpractice insurance and risk management techniques, insurance deemed “ancillary” such as employment practices insurance or employee theft insurance is often overlooked.  ProtectLawyers.com challenges each client to take a holistic approach to risk transfer and not to rule out the importance of all “ancillary” coverages.  Contact a licensed broker today in order to review the adequacy of your insurance.
