Honigman Miller Schwartz and Cohn and the Detroit-based firm’s vice chairman, Alan Schwartz, have settled a discrimination lawsuit brought by Schwartz’s former executive assistant, according to Crain’s Detroit Business.
The suit was filed in U.S. district court in Detroit in October by Deborah Gordon, of the Bloomfield Hills, Mich.-based Law Offices of Deborah Gordon, on behalf of Denise Fitzhenry. Fitzhenry, who served as Schwartz’s executive assistant before he stepped down as firm chairman and CEO in 2008, claimed in her suit that she had suffered disability and sex discrimination, as well as discrimination under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act.
