Anne Clark

I represent clients in a wide variety of employment and discrimination cases involving race, gender, harassment, pregnancy, age, disability, sexual orientation, and identity. My experience also encompasses retaliation, whistleblower, breach of contract, and compensation and benefits cases. A strong litigator accustomed to navigating highly complex employment matters, I leverage my skill, reputation, and pragmatic mindset to resolve issues while avoiding litigation whenever possible. When disputes cannot be resolved, I do not hesitate to take them to trial. Representative Experience: -Appointed by the New York Attorney General to co-lead the investigation of sexual harassment allegations involving former Governor Andrew Cuomo -Survived a motion to dismiss, and later a motion for summary judgment, for a professor who was denied tenure and reappointment in retaliation for her requests to accommodate her disability (MS) and her complaints of discrimination and retaliation -Survived summary judgment in a sexual harassment and retaliation case where the harasser did not work for plaintiff’s employer. Court rejected defendant’s argument that it could not be held responsible for harassment by someone it did not employ -Survived a motion to dismiss in an Equal Pay Act case for Chief Architect for a university. The court permitted comparisons to men with job titles different from the plaintiff’s
