Congratulations to WBS&J partners John Winer and Elana Jacobs for having their $13.5 million sexual harassment settlement recognized by the Daily Journal as one of the year’s Top Verdicts & Settlements! Their impactful work in Phillips v. Berkeley Unified School District helped secure justice for multiple students who bravely came forward to expose years of alleged sexual abuse by a high school teacher, abuse that the district failed to stop despite repeated complaints.
