Helmer Friedman LLP Represents Former Mott MacDonald Employee Accusing the Mott MacDonald Family of Companies of Illegal Employment Practices
October 26, 2021 (Los Angeles, California) – Andrew H. Friedman of Helmer Friedman LLP, announced today the filing of a lawsuit against the Mott MacDonald Family of companies – Mott MacDonald Holdings, Inc., Mott MacDonald Group, Inc., and Mott MacDonald, Inc.
California law is clear: it is illegal for employers to fire, demote or otherwise retaliate against an employee because of that employee’s age, race or national origin or because that employee complains about unlawful activity.
The lawsuit, Abbas Sizar v. Mott MacDonald Holdings, Inc., Mott MacDonald Group, Inc., and Mott MacDonald, Inc. (Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. 21STCV39343), alleges that the Mott MacDonald defendants, in violation of California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act and Labor Code, discriminated against, harassed, and retaliated against Mr. Sizar, among other claims. More specifically, the lawsuit alleges that the Mott MacDonald defendants fired Mr. Sizar and other non-white and older employees and replaced them with younger less experienced, and less qualified white males.
Speaking about the lawsuit, Mr. Sizar’s attorney, Andrew H. Friedman of Helmer Friedman LLP, stated, “California law is clear: it is illegal for employers to fire, demote or otherwise retaliate against an employee because of that employee’s age, race or national origin or because that employee complains about unlawful activity.”
