The law firm of Rudolph Friedmann LLP has directed a cy pres award (unclaimed moneys from class action settlements) to the Fair Employment Project!

The award comes from the settlement of a case brought under the Fair Labor Standards Act.

Adam Shafran, a partner at Rudulph Freidman in Boston, represented the plaintiffs in the matter. Attorney Shafran is an experienced employment attorney who has counseled and litigated all aspects of the employment relationship. For the past five years, he has been selected to the Massachusetts Super Lawyers Rising Star list for employment litigation, an award recognizing the top 2.5% of attorneys under the age of 40 in Massachusetts.

Thank you!
