Understanding Your Rights Under New York City’s Fair Chance Act For many New Yorkers, a criminal record can feel like a life sentence, not just in the legal system, but in the job market. Even after serving their time and turning their lives around, applicants with past convictions often face barriers when applying for work. But in New York City, the law provides protections aimed at giving people a fair shot. If you’ve been denied a job or treated unfairly during the hiring process because of your criminal record, you may have rights under the city’s Fair Chance Act, commonly known as the “ban the box” law. What Is the Fair Chance Act? The Fair Chance Act (FCA) is a New York City law that restricts when and how employers can ask about criminal records during the hiring process. It’s part of a broader effort to reduce discrimination and increase access to employment for people with conviction histories. Under this law,…

Every morning at about 6:47 AM, my 4-year-old daughter’s head pops off the pillow with the same urgent question: “What are we doing today?” I’ll be brutally honest – most mornings I’m just hoping for 30 minutes of uninterrupted coffee time. But she needs that roadmap. She needs to know what’s next. As adults, we often forget we’re wired the same way. You wouldn’t buy a house without seeing the contractor’s blueprint first. You’ll never see the finished house until it’s built, but that detailed plan gives you confidence it’ll look right. The same principle applies to retirement – especially for lawyers. When I talk with lawyers approaching retirement, the anxiety isn’t usually about the numbers. You’ve built successful careers, accumulated assets, done the “right” things financially. The struggle runs deeper than that. It’s a loss of identity. Who are…

There is a mass exodus of West Coast-based Willkie Farr partners leaving because the firm bent a knee to Donald Trump, pledging $100 million in pro bono payola to avoid an unconstitutional Executive Orders targeting the firm, and the tremendous harm that can bring. According to reporting by the Wall Street Journal, at least seven partners, six in San Francisco and one in Los Angeles, are leaving the yellow-bellied firm and heading to a firm committed to defending the rule of law. They’ll be moving to Cooley, a firm fighting for the rule of law and representing Jenner & Block in their challenge to the Trump EOs. This mass departure is a potentially dire sign for Willkie’s San Francisco office. The exodus of partners could decimate Willkie’s San Francisco office, which it opened six years ago to cater to California’s technology industry. The partners who are leaving Willkie include Simona Agnolucci and Benedict Hur, who helped launch the…

The Client’s Situation: A Digital Coach for Walmart Our client, a digital coach for Walmart, began experiencing a variety of debilitating symptoms. Despite ongoing testing and treatment, her doctors were still in the process of diagnosing the underlying cause of her health issues.

After just seven weeks of receiving STD benefits, Sedgwick, the third-party administrator handling her claim, cut off her benefits. The reason? Sedgwick claimed there was a lack of “objective findings” to…

Consumer protection authority has long been a staple of the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) enforcement of the FTC Act, beginning with the 1938 Wheeler-Lea amendments to the agency’s establishing statute. And Congress drew an express connection between the FTC’s competition and consumer protection authorities with the introduction of Section 5(n) of the FTC Act, which stipulates that: [t]he Commission shall have no authority under this section or section 57a of this title to declare unlawful an act or practice on the grounds that such act or practice is unfair unless the act or practice causes or is likely to cause substantial injury to consumers which is not reasonably avoidable by consumers themselves and not outweighed by countervailing benefits to consumers or to competition. This authority is not so far from my competition expertise, such as it is. Not a little of my research—and competition advocacy—has focused on the competitive…
