$759,468 Molded Verdict
A few months ago, the employment discrimination attorneys at Pomerantz Perlberger & Lewis were successful in winning a landmark gender discrimination case in federal court on behalf of a paramedic in the fire department of the City of Philadelphia. The jury awarded $464,037 in back and front pay. After the verdict, post-trial motions were filed and the trial judge denied requests for a new trial or to vacate the jury verdict. We are proud and happy to announce that the judge, on our motion, has now awarded $295,431 in counsel fees, pre-judgment interest and an amount to cover negative tax consequences. This brings the total recovery in court to $759,468. Until the amount is paid, our client will also be entitled to post-judgment interest on this amount. Employment discrimination lawyer, Norman Perlberger, assisted by his partner, Gerald Jay Pomerantz, brought about this great employment discrimination result!
