$300,000
Settlement in Wrongful Termination Case Perry Smith filed a
lawsuit on behalf of an employee who was terminated because he
complained
that his employer had created an unsafe working environment. The case was settled after mediation for
$300,000. The remaining details of the case are confidential. (This result was specific to the facts of the case and
is no indication that a similar result will be obtained for any other
case.)
$125,000
Settlement for Unpaid Overtime
Perry Smith obtained $125,000 for an employee who had been classified as "exempt" from overtime premium pay when he should have been classified as "non-exempt" and entitled to overtime. The employee's duties did not qualify him for exemption, Smith argued, and ultimately a settlement of $125,000 was reached to avoid litigation. (This result was specific to the facts of the case and is no indication that a similar result will be obtained for any other case.)
