| Former Associate Sues Fried, Frank for Discrimination |

Former Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP ("Fried, Frank") associate Julie E. Kamps, a cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School ('98), filed a complaint yesterday with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the New York State Division of Human Rights, and the New York City Commission on Human Rights. Kamps' complaint comes after mediation efforts failed about a month ago. The complaint charges Fried, Frank with discrimination, harassment, and retaliation on the basis of sex and sexual orientation. According to Kamps, "Fried, Frank's diversity efforts stop at the door to the partnership," and Fried, Frank hires many of its female partners laterally, rather than developing female associates and promoting from within the firm. Kamps also claims that the firm subjected her to a long course of adverse action, including firing her (though she still appears on the firm's website). "I have been mistreated by Fried, Frank and hope to shine a light on the differences between the firm's official policies and what the partners actually do," Kamps said. |
