Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Statement

​Fox Swibel Levin & Carroll LLP is strongly committed to diversity, equity and inclusion and proudly heralds Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day on January 16.  No one in the history of our country has been a more heroic example of devotion to these principles than Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was – he personified the struggle of the victims of racial injustice to rise up peacefully, with dignity, grace and resolve.  His eloquence and courage left an indelible imprint on the fabric of American society, and we today still recall, recount and celebrate his indomitable spirit.  What is a greater legacy than to be remembered with a nationwide day of reflection, action and service to our communities, that we may one day overcome all hatred, bigotry and intolerance that still sadly afflicts our society.  Let us applaud Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day and may it serve as a reminder of our goal of greater tolerance and understanding among people of all socio-economic and cultural backgrounds, religions, races, genders, sexual orientations and abilities.

Illinois employers now have yet another law to navigate. The state human rights statute now bans discrimination based on a candidate’s or employee’s criminal conviction unless the employer can show a “substantial relationship” exists between the conviction and the job or that the employment would involve an “unreasonable risk” to property or safety.

Fox Swibel is deeply saddened and disturbed by the murder last week of eight people, six of whom were Asian Americans, in a spree of mass shootings targeting Asian American-owned businesses in the Atlanta metropolitan area. Our hearts go out to all their families and friends, as well as to everyone else affected by these heinous crimes.

The Illinois Trade Secrets Act (ITSA) prohibits misappropriation of trade secrets and allows recovery of attorneys’ fees in suits to enforce the Act. A recent decision by the Appellate Court of Illinois is a cautionary tale for employers wanting to protect customer lists and other information.

We’ve written about court decisions applying judicial doctrines under the First Amendment to bar some types of employment claims against religious entities. The Illinois Supreme Court has now weighed in.

More than 40 years ago, the Illinois Supreme Court first recognized the tort of retaliatory discharge as an exception to the general rule that an “at-will” employee is terminable at any time and for any or no cause. Now, the court for the first time has confirmed such claims don’t cover the nonrenewal of a fixed-term contract.

Illinois employers now have yet another law to navigate. The state human rights statute now bans discrimination based on a candidate’s or employee’s criminal conviction unless the employer can show a “substantial relationship” exists between the conviction and the job or that the employment would involve an “unreasonable risk” to property or safety.

More than 40 years ago, the Illinois Supreme Court first recognized the tort of retaliatory discharge as an exception to the general rule that an “at-will” employee is terminable at any time and for any or no cause. Now, the court for the first time has confirmed such claims don’t cover the nonrenewal of a fixed-term contract.
