Jackson Lewis’ Martin Aron has co-authored, “The Impact of COVID-19 on Employment Claims and Litigation,” published by Claims Magazine, Jan./Feb. 2021 issue.  The article focuses on (1) the variety of pandemic-related claims and litigation that have emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic; (2) the role human resources professionals, in-house counsel, and insurance claims professionals can play in reducing the risks and costs associated with COVID-19-related employment claims and litigation; (3) the challenges of mitigating damages and negotiating settlements in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic; and (4) how the filing of bankruptcy by employers and individuals can impact litigation and litigation strategy.  The article frequently cites Jackson Lewis’ COVID-19 Employment LitWatch when discussing important COVID-19-related litigation trends.
