Jesse Scott Weinstein

I am sharp negotiator with a meticulous investigative approach to each one of my cases. As a result, I have obtained $11,000,000 in settlements for my clients through pre-suit negotiations, mediation, and litigation. My clientele has ranged from minimum wage workers to executives, and my multiple bar licenses have allowed me to prosecute employers throughout New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.

I am also a member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum after securing a $1,500,000 settlement involving allegations of sexual assault and quid pro quo sexual harassment against a C-Suite executive for a major company in New York City.  Some of my other notable results include a $740,000 settlement on behalf of a Fortune 50 company executive who was subject to disparate treatment and tokenization on the basis of her race, an $800,000 settlement on behalf of pharmaceutical company executive who was wrongfully terminated based upon his age, a $500,000 settlement against a cryptocurrency hedge fund executive for sexual harassment, a $550,000 settlement on behalf of a former record label executive for race discrimination, settlements of $675,000, $535,000, and $400,000 against three separate major financial institutions in New York City for sexual assault and sexual harassment, and a $325,000 settlement in a whistleblowing case that resolved on the first day of trial.

I also tried a race discrimination case to verdict in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case was Pardovani v. Crown Building Maintenance Co. and Jazz at Lincoln Center, Inc., Case# 15-CV-09065. I obtained a unanimous jury verdict for my client for multiple claims of race discrimination. Having heard evidence that the client was repeatedly subjected to racial slurs by his non-Black supervisors, the jury awarded him $1,800,000 in damages.

I am a military veteran, former criminal prosecutor, and zealous advocate.  I will fight for you until the bitter end.
