Business Wire: Lieff Cabraser and Equal Rights Advocates Announce Court Upholds Gender Discrimination Lawsuit Against Vassar College

September 16. 2024


Litigation Director Catherine Bendor is quoted in a Businesswire article about an update our Vassar lawsuit:

“The court recognized that when the state of New York amended its equal pay law, it provided more robust protections for women seeking to be paid the same amount as men for substantially similar work,” said Catherine Bendor,  the plaintiffs’ attorney and director of litigation at Equal Rights Advocates. “New York’s law, and new equal pay laws being enacted by a growing number of states across the country, will help bring us closer to achieving true pay equity for women in academia and set the standard for all occupations.”
