Employment Discrimination
Nding partners of Tuckner, Sipser, Weinstock & Sipser, LLP, Mr. Sipser has been a leading practitioner in the area of Labor Law and Employment Law Discrimination for almost twenty years. His practice includes extensive litigation experience in state and federal courts, and before several governmental agencies involving representation of individuals and labor unions. Mr. Sipser has prosecuted significant cases, including appeals before the Appellate Division of the State of New York as well as the federal Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. He argued a critical employment discrimination issue before the New York State Court of Appeals, New York's highest court, in September 2004. Mr. Sipser recently briefed, argued and won an important civil service case before the New York State Appellate Division, First Department, in Manhattan.
Employment Litigation
Mr. Sipser has tried hundreds of administrative cases and arbitrations concerning employment issues, including grievances and discharge cases. Recognized for his success in participating in employment discrimination alternative dispute resolution, Mr. Sipser was recently one of the featured speakers and participants in a forum on mediation of employment disputes in a continuing legal education seminar held at Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law.
Severance Agreement
When Tuckner learned of Julie’s dismissal, he wrote to the doctor again to try to negotiate a resolution. “All I was trying to do at this point was to make sure the women who came after her wouldn’t have to go through this and get her a nice little settlement,” Tuckner says. “Settlements under these circumstances are often modest. At the time it might have been a several month’s severance pay to tide her over while she looked for a new job.” Dr. Jones’ response to Tuckner: “Drop dead. We’ll never pay you.” Tuckner immediately fled a complaint in state court. Five years later the case finally went to trial. In the middle of the trial, Dr. Jones agreed to settle. The settlement wasn’t resolved for another two years, but finally Julie received compensation—roughly five years’ pay.
Sexual Harassment
He’s watching you. You can’t concentrate, you’re afraid to be alone with him, and the comments won’t stop. Sexual harassment can be relentless, consuming your work and your life. It happened to these women—and it could happen to you. Here’s what every woman (and man) should know about sexual harassment.
