Nationwide Collective Actions

Accomplished Employment Discrimination Attorneys

In our quest to fight for the rights of workers, we have found that not all employment discrimination cases come one person at a time. Sometimes, it is several. Sometimes, it is several thousand. When that happens, we have the resources and knowledge to build a collective action lawsuit.

IBM Age Discrimination Class Action Lawsuit

In recent years, IBM is alleged to have engaged in wrongful systematic discrimination on the basis of age. They have terminated thousands of employees over 40, while retaining a disproportionate number of younger workers. This may be a violation of the rights of employees according to the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). The law firm of McTeague, Higbee, & Case has already enlisted hundreds of past IBM employees in this age discrimination case.

You are eligible to join the lawsuit if you are a former IBM employee who was:

Notified of layoff or termination on or after July 7, 2001 through May 4, 2005
Age 40 or over at the time of being laid off
Terminated in a resource action

The damages that members of the lawsuit may be eligible for include back pay, lost wages, and potentially more.

We are dedicated to fighting for the rights of former IBM workers across the United States, including California, Colorado, Minnesota, New York, Texas, Arizona, Vermont, North Carolina, Oregon, and more. We will fight for workers on an individual or group basis.

The law firm of McTeague, Higbee, Case, Cohen, Whitney & Toker accepts clients throughout the state of Maine including Portland, Topsham, Bangor, Waterville, Lewiston, Augusta, Bath, Brunswick, Auburn and Biddeford. We currently represent former IBM employees in an age discrimination claim in states throughout the U.S. including New York, California, Vermont, North Carolina, Texas, Arizona, Colorado and Oregon.
