Victory in Employment Discrimination Case

Matthew J. Egan and Quinn P. Donnelly successfully defended the firm’s clients, a dental practice and a dentist, at trial in an employment discrimination case in the Circuit Court of Cook County. The plaintiff, whose employment contract was not renewed by the practice, alleged claims of pregnancy discrimination and retaliation under the Illinois Human Rights Act and common law claims of defamation and breach of the right to privacy. After a week of trial, the court dismissed all of the plaintiff’s claims with prejudice.
