Kaiser defends all claims aggressively and it's hardly surprising, as the company of that size would not want to set a precedent of "rolling over" and giving in easily. Having said that, I have enjoyed and enjoy pursuing cases on behalf of those former employees of Kaiser whose compelling story of employment and termination make it worthwhile to not only seek financial compensation for victims of unlawful treatment at workplace but to set a possibly higher precedent that those who violate human dignity lightly will have to pay for it. Such compelling stories commonly include a medical professional with 20, 30 or even more years of employment with Kaiser with nearly stellar performance history and promotions, who has been set up through a paper trail to be terminated for "insubordination", "poor attendance", or some other vague or even worse - fabricated reasons for firing.
