Edward Langhammer will present “Duty to Mitigate Damages in Employment Discrimination and Termination Cases: Challenges at Trial,” a webinar hosted by Strafford. Ed will discuss mitigating damages in employment cases, an often neglected area of employment law that can significantly impact jury verdicts. He will also review salient legal points and provide practical guidance for pre-claim activity, during discovery, and proof at trial. The panel will review practical and legal matters, including:What are the relevant sources of federal and state law regarding mitigation?Are there evidentiary steps a plaintiff can take to prove mitigation?What are the practical implications of the defendant's burden regarding the plaintiff's mitigation?How can a defendant strategically raise mitigation without seemingly admitting damages?Who can testify about the adequacy of the plaintiff's efforts to mitigate?
