Re: Dillard's lawsuits

More | Report Post

I also was previously employed with Dillard's. While reading all
the statements I recognize that they have used thier high paid
lawyers and intemidation until people get frustrated and just give
up. I have done an extremely large amount on research on
employmemnt law. I have also spoke with many legal proffessionals.
I am not to this point even comfortable with thier help because they
lack passion for what they are doing. I have an mental imparement
or disability depending on to which doctor you speak to. Dillard's
basically pushed me to the point of an extended stay in the hospital
and until this point have strait out lied. I wont give up on this
and if I can help anyone out with what i have expeirenced feel free
to contact me at any time.
