Twitter employees are rejecting Elon's offer of one month's severance pay. We think they are owed much more. We filed claims for hundreds of workers and are ready to take on the world's formerly richest person. Contact [email protected] and read twitterlayofflawsuit.com

Today we will be filing our 500th Demand for Arbitration. We look forward to beating @ElonMusk’s efforts to screw these @Twitter employees. Expect more demands soon. We will beat him at his own game.

We anticipated this and that’s why we have already filed 500 individual arbitration demands - and counting. This is not a win for Elon Musk. Twitter still has to answer claims in court, on top of the arbitration battles.

Imagine how life has been for the people you laid off and are attempting to deprive of the severance pay they were promised, @ElonMusk. I don’t think your "pain" compares.

If Elon Musk just does the right thing and pays my 1500+ clients what they are owed, he would actually save money in the end. Not holding my breath but perhaps he'll come to his senses. businessinsider.com/elon-musk-face…

Twitter employees relied on promises made by the company that they'd be treated fairly if @ElonMusk’s acquisition was successful. He reneged on their promise of severance. We've filed arbitration demands now for almost half of laid off US Tweeps because Musk must pay what he owes

Careful what you wish for @ElonMusk. You told Twitter vendors if they want to get paid, "then sue.” You got your wish. Small businesses, like employees, should not have to sue to get paid what they are owed.

For years, this hotel misled customers and stole tips from its workers - and then fought them when they sought money that was rightfully theirs. Proud of this result for hundreds of Bay Area families.

A union of government employees has sued Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and President Joe Biden to try to stop them from complying with the law that limits the government's total debt, which the lawsuit contends is unconstitutional. apnews.com/article/debt-l…

Success! #Twitter can't force employees into consolidated discovery for arbitrations (which would reduce its work substantially and limit the evidence we can get) after compelling our nearly 2,000 clients to arbitrate their claims individually.

For too long, hotels and restaurants have stolen workers’ tips by applying “service charges” to food and beverage bills and then keeping the proceeds. This practice is deceptive – and illegal. More waitstaff are fighting back.
