LVBH lawyers Jean Hyams and Rebecca Kagin represented a woman who worked in car sales in court and arbitration against a Toyota car dealership for gender and national origin discrimination and harassment.  She also brought a claim that the owner of the dealership retaliated against her after she filed a complaint with the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing.

Car dealerships are notoriously abusive work environments for women and people of color and employers in this industry frequently deprive their employees of the right to a jury trial by insisting on forced arbitration clauses as a term of employment. This is just one of multiple cases LVBH has pursued to take on car dealerships that engage in discriminatory practices and perpetuate hostile work environments.
