The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is suing New York law firm Kelley Drye & Warren for its use of a compensation system the agency claims discriminates against attorneys based on their age.
The federal suit was brought on behalf of labor and employment partner Eugene T. D’Ablemont, 79, and a class of other “similarly situated employees.” The EEOC claims Kelley Drye discriminated against D’Ablemont and other partners by forcing them to give up their equity at 70 and earn less than younger attorneys in the firm with similar collections and billings.
