Defense Verdict in Arbitration for Insurance Co. in Discrimination Case

Court: Superior Court of California, County of Sacramento

Our client, a global insurance industry leader, was sued in California state court by a former employee for disability discrimination, failure to accommodate, gender discrimination and harassment, and for retaliation. CDF successfully compelled the matter to binding arbitration, which abbreviated discovery, reduced the cost of litigation, and expedited resolution of the dispute. After a multiday arbitration hearing, the arbitrator handed down a full defense verdict on all claims.
