Attorneys have much much more incentive to suck up to big law than defend an individual, who in addition is apparently from a random family. At some point, connections and success intersect and he is not yet at this point.
Plaintiff-side employment attorneys are not sucking up to biglaw. Most of them really believe in their work. Maybe he found one of the very few that doesn’t and apparently was actually conspiring with Covington, but it sounds pretty outlandish.

This.
I am sorry, but you are going to have to explain yourself. What the hell are you talking about? If someone rants and raves like a lunatic and says they suffered a traumatic situation then that means that you automatically have to accept everything they say as true? Is that what you’re saying?

It’s inexcusable that anyone be called the n-word but we don’t really know what happened. I suspect if there were evidence that this really occurred and his termination was unjustified, Covington would have made him a really good settlement offer. And any attorney worth a damn would advise him to file a lawsuit and lawsuit keep his mouth shut and especially stay off social media. The fact that he seems to be unrepresented and is posting all over suggests there are some holes in his story.
Like in a divorce, it’s not always about maxing the settlement even if your ex is loaded.

My word. This simply did not happen. I have no love lost for Covington, which ran my spouse out of the firm years ago, but there is simply no way -- no way -- that a partner called him the n-word during a conversation encouraging him to "pursue other opportunities."
I mean, come on, the guy literally is posting on LinkedIn that "my President," meaning DJT, will be personally intervening on his behalf tomorrow. Delusional. He worked at Covington for like a year and his settlement offer is $43 million. Posted publicly on LinkedIn. Just completely bonkers.

Exactly. That's what this is....and I think they pushed him out. Did they say the n word? Probably. And he said something to in all likelihood

Oh please. Of course there is.
You don’t understand trauma. - A social worker
Are you insane? Your profession has nothing to do with the veracity of his story. Why would your chosen career have anything to do with what actually happened here?

That’s your opinion. People don’t go public to fight against powerful institutions unless they have a substantial grievance.
And that’s your opinion.

The fact that he’s complaining that a partner at Covington called him “nig***” and subjected him to severe verbal abuse? Or is that “normal” for you too.
