Gerald J. Williams Comments on New EPA Guidelines Regarding PFOAs

HADDONFIELD, NEW JERSEY — Gerald J. Williams, Partner, Williams Cedar LLC, is available to speak on new guidelines released by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) about safe levels of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAs) in drinking water.

The new guidelines were released on June 15 after findings that even levels as low as .004 parts per trillion for PFOA and .02 parts per trillion for PFOS, two common types of PFAs, could have negative health effects on people exposed to them.

PFAs are a type of chemical that has been used in industrial processes since the 1940s. These chemicals have been used in everything from non-stick frying pans to moisture-repellent fabric to fire-retardant materials. Unfortunately, PFAs are incredibly toxic, and, even in tiny amounts,1 can cause a variety of health problems, including thyroid disorders, multiple types of cancer, and low birth weight in children.

They also break down incredibly slowly, allowing them to accumulate to toxic levels over a prolonged period. As more information about PFAs has been learned, the lower the recommended safe concentrations for PFAs have gotten.

Despite this health risk, PFAs are not currently regulated by the EPA. The agency is looking to fix this and has announced its intention to issue mandatory standards for PFOAs and PFOS this fall. “These new advisories represent the good news that the federal government, after years of lagging behind regulators in states like New York and New Jersey, recognizes the severe dangers these widespread, persistent, highly toxic chemicals pose for municipal and private water supplies, even at low levels,” Mr. Williams says.

“For decades, the corporate manufacturers and users of PFAs have covered up these dangers, putting residents and workers at risk for serious illnesses, including cancer,” Mr. Williams says. “These new advisories won’t remove the contamination, but they will help inform the public of the ill effects, of both the ‘old’ and ‘new’ PFAs in their drinking water.”

Steven Mitchell Sack Says Employers Should Extend Employee Protections to LGBTQ+ Workers

NEW YORK, NEW YORK — June is LGBTQ+ Pride Month, which allows those to freely express their sexual identity and preference. Steven Mitchell Sack, “The Employee’s Lawyer,” says that employers may be subject to fines and penalties if they do not extend worker protections for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or other (LGBTQ+) employees.

According to The National LGBTQ Workers Center, one in four employees who identify as LGBTQ has experienced discrimination in the workplace due to their sexual orientation or sexual identity. Further, 27% of transgender workers said they were fired, denied job opportunities or promotions and 22% of LGBT workers did not make the same amount of money as their colleagues. When it comes to benefits, only 20% of U.S. companies offer paid family leave for LGBT employees.

In 2002, New York State passed The Sexual Orientation Non-Discrimination Act, which prohibits employee discrimination and/or harassment based on their actual or perceived sexual orientation. “In New York City, employers cannot ask their employees to ‘dress like a woman’ or tell them their behavior isn’t ‘manly enough,’” Mr. Sack said. “It is illegal to harass, name-call, or insult someone because they are LGBTQ or to misgender a transgender man by repeatedly calling him ‘her’ or ‘Ms.’ at work when he has made it clear that his pronouns and title are ‘he and him’ and ‘Mr.’”

While victims of such discrimination or harassment may be awarded compensatory damages for pain and suffering and the monetary value of any lost wages of benefits, the New York City law allows victims to collect punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. “Before filing a formal complaint against your employer, do your research and see which town or city closest to you provides the strongest protection,” Mr. Sack says. “Speak to a competent employment lawyer for advice and guidance in this area where applicable.”

Mr. Sack has been an employment attorney for more than 41 years. He is the author of 20 books, including his latest release, FIRED! Protect Your Rights & FGHT BACK If You’re Terminated, Laid Off, Downsized, Restructured, Forced to Resign or Quit. He is a practicing labor and employment attorney and the author of 20 books, a lecturer, syndicated radio talk show host, and host of the podcast “Know Your Job Rights with Attorney Steven Sack.” Together with attorney Scott A. Lucas, he obtained a $6.2 million jury verdict in 2015 on behalf of three pregnant employees and a favorable New York Court of Appeals decision for a group of waiters who were denied their fair share of tips that a caterer withheld.

Renowned Employment Law Attorney Urges Workers to Know Their Rights in His New Book

Steven Mitchell Sack Releases His 20th Book, “FIRED! Protect Your Rights & FIGHT BACK If You’re Terminated, Laid Off, Downsized, Restructured, Forced to Resign or Quit”

 

NEW YORK, June 10, 2022 — You have been with the same company for a long time; suddenly, you are fired through no fault of your own. You have suffered sexual harassment and discrimination, but you’re terminated when you complain. You are forced to resign, but you’re denied unemployment insurance benefits once you leave. After being laid off, you receive an unfavorable job reference. What can you do about it? Plenty, according to attorney Steven Sack!

Steven Mitchell Sack, “The Employee’s Lawyer” and the author of “The Employee Rights Handbook,” has released his 20th book titled, “FIRED! Protect Your Rights & Fight Back If You’re Terminated, Laid Off, Downsized, Restructured, Forced to Resign or Quit.” The book is a unique legal guide that provides essential information workers need to adequately protect themselves before, during, and after their jobs have ended. Mr. Sack explains how employees can anticipate and avoid uncomfortable situations when they know they are about to be laid off, wish to resign, or want to negotiate and receive a better severance package with health insurance and other benefits.

The book is divided into three parts to help readers better understand their situation and how to improve it:

  • “Determining When You Are Being Treated Unlawfully” covers discrimination based on age, sex, pregnancy, disability, race, religion, and retaliation. It discusses exceptions to the at-will doctrine, including whistleblowing, attending jury duty, being separated due to a massive layoff, or being fired in violation of a promise or company rule.
  • “Negotiating The Best Severance Package After You’re Fired” provides tips on recognizing the signs you will be fired, taking charge of your career, getting the best package, confirming the deal in writing, and taking practical steps to protect your rights.
  • “Fighting Back” explains how to resign from a job if you must properly maximize unemployment benefits and protect your job references.

In addition, there are chapters on defamation lawsuits dealing with restrictive covenants, trade secrets, gag orders, and other post-termination restrictions, plus advice on employment litigation, arbitration, and mediation. Mr. Sack also provides guidance on hiring and working effectively with a lawyer to improve the chances of success.

FIRED! also features many tools to help you if you are terminated, including a glossary, index, legal forms, letters to send, and agreements to help protect your rights.

“A job is like a romance,” Mr. Sack says. “Employers woo applicants with promises of riches, security, and fulfillment, then often dump them when the honeymoon is over. Many don’t receive promised benefits such as year-end bonuses, commissions, health insurance, overtime, and severance pay. Others are fired without cause through no fault of their own. However, most workers have more rights than they think. Remember: every firing is negotiable.”

The book is available in hardcover for $34.99 plus $5.01 for priority mail, shipping, and handling through the publisher, Legal Strategies Publications (www.legalstratpub.com). The $24.99 softcover and the $19.99 eBook can be purchased at local bookstores and distributors, including Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

New York Personal Injury Attorney Tells Highbridge Residents to be on the Lookout for Symptoms of Legionnaires’ Disease

Urges Those Who Believe They Contracted the Disease to Get Tested and Seek Medical Treatment

NEW YORK, NY — Ronald J. Katter of The Katter Law Firm is urging people in the Highbridge neighborhood of the Bronx to watch for symptoms of Legionnaires’ disease in the wake of a recent outbreak in the area. He also urges those who believe they may have the illness to seek medical attention immediately.

Since May 9, four people residing within the 10452 and 10456 ZIP codes have contracted Legionnaires’ disease. Fortunately, no fatalities have been reported. The New York City Health Department is currently investigating these cases and testing and sampling water from all cooling towers within the affected area.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Legionnaires’ disease is caused by the Legionella bacteria. It grows in warm found in water systems, including cooling towers. The cooling towers disperse water vapor into the air. People contract the disease when they breathe in water vapor containing the bacteria. Although it cannot be transmitted from one person to another, it can be serious for those who smoke or have chronic lung conditions. Many symptoms of Legionnaires’ disease are similar to those of COVID-19. Unlike COVID-19, Legionnaires’ disease can successfully be treated with antibiotics.

“It is critical that anyone who experiences Legionnaires’ disease symptoms — which may include one or more of the following: headache, muscle pain, chills, fever, cough, gastrointestinal symptoms and confusion — seek immediate medical attention,” Mr. Katter says. “For the at-risk population, Legionnaires’ disease can be life-threatening, so, for them, time is of the essence.” Mr. Katter also urges those seeking medical attention to “tell their physicians about the outbreak, so that they can be properly tested.”

Mr. Katter is experienced in representing clients who were sickened with Legionnaires’ disease. He has taken legal action against building owners who willfully refuse to clean and maintain the buildings’ water systems. “If those who are sick believe they were infected due to the carelessness of a building owner, they should contact an attorney,” he says.

Mr. Katter is available for interviews on this matter. For more information, call (212) 809-4293 or visit www.katterlaw.com.

Experienced Personal Injury Attorney Comments on Settlement with Families of Victims of Florida Condominium Collapse

NEW YORK, NY — Ronald J. Katter, of The Katter Law Firm, says the lawsuit settlement proposal announced yesterday for last year’s deadly Florida condominium collapse should be approved because it is both fair and efficient.

In the early morning hours of June 24, 2021, Champlain Towers South in Surfside, Florida, collapsed, killing 98 people and destroying 136 apartments. The surviving victims, families of those who were killed, and the unit owners filed more than 20 lawsuits against the Champlain Towers South Condominium Association and the developer of Eighty Seven Park project, the building next door. They claimed the developer’s work from that construction project caused the condominium to collapse. This past March, the defendants offered $83 million to the condominium unit owners for their property loss. Miami-Dade County Circuit Court Judge Michael Hanzman, who is overseeing the lawsuits related to the Surfside building collapse, was deciding whether to approve that settlement.

On May 11, 2022, Judge Hanzman unexpectedly announced the $997 million settlement of the class-action lawsuit brought by the survivors and the families of those who died. “The enormous size and speed of the proposed settlement benefits all parties involved,” Mr. Katter said. “As large as a $997 million settlement seems, the defendants, who did not admit responsibility, might have paid much more, had the case gone to trial. The survivors and families of those who were killed decided that, although a jury may have awarded them even more money at trial, the risks and emotional toll of a drawn-out litigation were not worth it. Ironically, a good settlement is one in which neither side gets everything they want.”

Mr. Katter is available for interviews on this matter. For more information, call (212) 809-4293 or visit www.katterlaw.com.

Eastern Long Island-Based Trademark and Copyright Attorney Explains How Business Owners Can Protect Their Company Name or Brand

Kathryn Dalli

RIVERHEAD, NEW YORK — Kathryn Dalli, Partner, Twomey, Latham, Shea, Kelley, Dubin & Quartararo, LLP, is available to speak on how business owners can protect their name or brand by obtaining a federal trademark registration.

Ms. Dalli says that registering a trademark for the name of a business or its brand with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) provides protection in all 50 states. However, there are certain instances where you will be unable to obtain a federal trademark for your business. “If your trademark conflicts with a prior registered trademark or one that has been applied for in your channel of trade — that is, your area of business — the mark cannot be federally registered,” she says. “Also, if your name is descriptive of the services you offer, you will be unable to obtain a trademark for each service on the USPTO’s principal register.”

Two other instances that may preclude a business owner from federally registering the company name or brand are if the business involves the sale of marijuana and cannabis products (which are illegal under federal law), and the company does not do business outside its locality.

“In these instances, in which you cannot get a federal trademark, it might be better to obtain a state registration of your mark, which affords some protection,” Ms. Dalli says.

Ms. Dalli urges those who apply for a registered trademark to be patient, but also to be proactive. “The review and application process can take a year or more, and there is no guarantee that your application will be approved,” she says. “It is also your responsibility to monitor the status of your application. If you are thinking of obtaining a federally registered trademark for your name or brand, the best advice is to seek the assistance of a trademark or intellectual property attorney.”

Ms. Dalli concentrates her practice in intellectual property matters, including trademark and copyright infringement and unfair competition, as well as complex commercial litigation, real estate and foreclosures. She is a member of the American Intellectual Property Law Association and a former Co-Chair of the Suffolk County Bar Association’s Intellectual Law Committee.

Tennessee Personal Injury Attorney Urges Caution Behind the Wheel during Distracted Driving Awareness Month

Keith Williams

The month of April is designated as Distracted Driving Awareness Month and Keith Williams, Founder, Keith Williams Law Group, is urging those who have been injured or whose loved one has been injured or killed as the result of another’s distracted driving to obtain legal assistance as soon as possible.

Distracted Driving Awareness Month is held every April to help educate drivers on the dangers of being distracted behind the wheel. According to the National Safety Council (NSC), eight people are killed and hundreds are injured each day as a result of drivers taking their eyes off a road — even for a few seconds.

A report from AmTrust Financial found that 6% of all drivers involved in a traffic fatality were not paying attention to the road and one in every four crashes was caused by a distracted driver. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, distracted drivers fall into three groups: visual (focusing on a cell phone, mobile device or touchscreen on the dashboard instead of on the road); manual (driving without keeping their hands on the steering wheel); and cognitive (their eyes may be on the road, but their mind may be thinking of something else besides driving).

“Too many accidents and fatalities on the road have been caused by drivers who were checking their cell phones, not controlling the steering wheel or mentally preoccupied by something else,” Mr. Williams says. “If you were seriously injured or your loved one was hurt or killed by a distracted driver, seek the guidance of a personal injury attorney immediately.”

Mr. Williams has dedicated his practice of 28 years to helping people and their families in accident, injury and wrongful death cases. He has tried hundreds of cases and obtained millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements for his clients. Some of the more substantial verdicts include a $14.6 million verdict for an injured motorcycle rider and a $6.2 million verdict for a car accident victim that is believed to be the largest verdict ever in Sumner County, Tennessee.

Personal Injury Lawyer Foresees Rise in Vehicular Fatalities as People Fail to Change Their Driving Habits, Even after the Pandemic

Ira S. Slavit, Partner, Levine & Slavit PLLC, says the growing number of fatalities on the road can be attributed to how people are not adhering to traffic laws, even after the pandemic lockdown, which also saw a growing number of deaths behind the wheel, although there were fewer vehicles on the road.

This month, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) came out with a report that showed that, during the first nine months of 2021 — a year after the lockdown was lifted — there were 31,720 deaths on U.S. roads, the highest since 2011. That is a 12% increase over the same nine months in 2020, with 28,325 fatalities. What’s more, the third quarter of 2021 saw 11,750 traffic deaths, which is higher than the same quarter in 2020 with 11,305 deaths and the second quarter of 2021, which had 11,065 deaths.

In New York State, 811 people were killed on the roads between January 2021 and September 2021, which is 6.0% higher than it was the first nine months the previous year with 765 deaths, according to the NHTSA. The organization also found that the Empire State had the second-highest number of traffic deaths in the Northeast followed by New Jersey (496) and Connecticut (253); Pennsylvania had the highest number of highway fatalities in the region with 903.

The main causes of these fatalities include not using seat belts, drunk driving and using a cell phone behind the wheel, based on the analysis of data from NHTSA. “The causes are not surprising, but what is surprising is how much more prevalent these poor driving habits became after the pandemic lockdown ended,” Mr. Slavit says.

“These numbers show a disturbing trend on the roads nationwide, including New York,” Mr. Slavit said. “During the pandemic lockdown, there weren’t as many people driving, but we saw a spike in traffic-related deaths. Now, with the lockdown being lifted, stores and businesses fully reopening and people returning to the office, that means more cars on the road and, because of careless driving habits, a greater number of fatalities. If you have been injured in a car crash, or had a loved one killed as a result of someone else’s reckless driving, contact a personal injury attorney immediately.”
