Mchaar v. FedEx Ground Package Systems, Inc.

Mchaar v. FedEx Ground Package Systems, Inc.
Case No. 20CV366270 (Santa Clara Co.)

Bryan Schwartz Law, P.C. and co-counsel Alexander Morrison + Fehr won a jury verdict of $2 million for one deaf, low-wage, part-time package handler who was repeatedly denied reasonable communications accommodations and the interactive process. FedEx failed to prevent this discrimination against him despite having previously been sued by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on behalf of deaf package handlers nationwide. After the verdict, the trial judge called the lawyers “some of the best lawyers I’ve had in my courtroom.”

Judge Lori Pegg, Santa Clara County Superior Court, stated: “The Court finds Schwartz provided Mchaar with exemplary and extraordinary legal advocacy – especially in pretrial motion and pretrial practice. Based on Schwartz advocacy – both written and oral – the Court allowed in evidence that it may otherwise have excluded, e.g., the evidence regarding the EEOC Consent Decree.”
