Class Action: Local Workers Settle for $4,500,000.00
I was local counsel for employees of a North Missouri plant. Referred to as a “donning and doffing” claim, the employees were required to spend time before and after their shifts preparing for work without pay, which is illegal under Federal law. After several years of litigation, the plant settled with the class for $4,500,000.00.

“I like justice. I like jury trials. I have tried a lot of them in Missouri, and a six week jury trial in the State of California. Most attorneys do not try jury trials, believe it or not. Many of the attorneys in this area have tried none, or one, and realized they were not ready for it and never want to do it again. Jury trials are extremely time consuming, heavy on preparation, and high stress situations. Most of the time we represent the underdog whether that is in personal injury cases against insurance companies’ defense teams, or in criminal defense cases where the client is always presumed guilty, not innocent. There is a sense of real satisfaction that arises when your client becomes the victor when the insurance company started by offering pennies, only to pay substantial sums, or when your client is convicted by the public, only to see the jury send him home with a not guilty verdict once all the facts are in evidence.”
