I could not begin to express my gratitude to everyone at Schall & Barasch, with particular thanks to Patricia Barasch, who represented me. She listened with careful empathy to everything I said, gave me letter-perfect advice, came to harrowing meetings with me for legal and moral support, and, most importantly, believed me. That last is a simple thing, but when you are facing retaliation in your workplace, it means everything, and it gave me the courage to fight a long fight, and one we ultimately came out on top of. Patricia is not only a fierce litigator, she is a truly moral person, and knowing she was behind me kept me going. She's a superstar.
