Late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel asked: “Country star or local Atlanta law firm?” in a skit making a nod to the CMA Awards, which also aired on ABC Wednesday night.

And guess which name was first on the quiz? Buckley Beal (yes, our firm). As The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Rodney Ho reports, the quiz might be mildly easier for Atlantans rather than the Los Angeles studio audience which guessed wrong most of the time. “Why the show chose Atlanta is unexplained beyond the fact the city does have law firm names that could be easily mistaken for country acts,” wrote the AJC’s Ho.

As reported in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Buckley Beal recently filed an age discrimination and retaliation lawsuit after a young manager allegedly engaged in a campaign to terminate our client's employment because of her age. As outlined in the lawsuit, the manager asked our client when she was going to retire, stated that she needed to retire, called her old and crazy on multiple occasions, and made it clear that she was compiling documentation to terminate our client. After 16 years of dedicated employment to the hospital, our client was abruptly fired at the age of 75.

Rachel Berlin Benjamin commented: “Instead of treating our client fairly and respectfully in the workplace, she was mistreated and subjected to blatant age discrimination at the hands of a much younger supervisor. This is exactly what the Age Discrimination in Employment Act statute protects against and we look forward to remedying this wrong.”

The Defendants vehemently disputed the key facts.

As Drew Beal commented to the Daily Report, this “was an interesting case; what it came down to was negligent entrustment and the law on permissive use of a vehicle.”

In 2003, the firm won a major victory on behalf of employees subject to unfair "non-compete" agreements. Georgia law requires strict scrutiny of these agreements and Georgia courts often bar employers from trying to enforce them. In Hostetler v. AnswerThink, the Georgia court of appeals held that Georgia courts have the power to prohibit former employers from trying to enforce invalid agreements throughout the United States, not just in Georgia. The Hostetler decison gives Georgia employees vital protection from "end run" efforts to enforce invalid non-compete agreements by filing lawsuits in other states.

In early 2005, Buckley Beal won a total of $1,045,000.00 in an arbitration brought on behalf of a stockbroker against the Smith Barney Brokerage firm.
