In the vast majority of employment discrimination and retaliation cases, companies will never get real and make a reasonable settlement offer unless you file a lawsuit.
Even once you file a lawsuit, you cannot maximize your position in these cases unless you are willing to go the distance. That means you have to put in the work and trust the process.
No lawyer is going to do this and 100% commit to your case unless you have a REAL case. Real cases mean your legal rights were violated. Blatant discrimination and/or retaliation. Clear cut. Strong facts. Cases are about rights, not about feelings.
But if you have a real case, 90% of the time, the only way to get a fair resolution is to file a lawsuit and put in the work. Buckle up.
