I consulted with Jazz approximately 2 years ago on an age discrimination suit. I had gotten a referral from the NOLA website. We spoke at length on the phone and she decided to take, what she called, a very strong case. During COVID I was told that the EEOC had slowed down and to be patient because cases were not being reveiwed in a timely matter. I understood and I remained patient. Then months went by with very little communication from her. When there was it was excuses and finger pointing. She would pass my case along to different students. (Which is absolutely fine). But, one had gotten ill and had never even worked on my case. Time wasted. Emails back and forth until she told me she was waiting on a "letter to sue" from the EEOC. I had a case number plus an inestigator. I checked the public portal weekly and it showed progression. Then, all it ever said was that my case was under review. One day she emailed me and said she could sue my previous employer directly but now she required a retainer. Money I didn't have. Originally we agreed on a contingency. Communications stopped. I haven't heard from her or the EEOC. I tried checking the portal recently and they have no record of me. Its been approx.2 years.. I've tried contacting other lawyers all refuse to take my case. May be some kind of professional code? She may be a good teacher. But as the saying goes "those who can, do. Those who cant, teach."
