About Beth Bloom
Experience
Beth Bloom believes the workplace is a reflection of one of America’s most important core values – that everyone has an equal opportunity to excel. When an employer disregards this value by illegally terminating an employee due to discrimination or retaliation, Beth vigorously advocates on the worker’s behalf. A skilled and experienced litigator with a track record of multimillion-dollar verdicts, she sees trials as a powerful tool for social justice and one of the most effective means for leveling the playing field between employee and employer.
Whereas many employment attorneys will opt to settle a claim for pennies on the dollar, Beth has the courage to stand up to powerful institutions to give her clients their day in court in front of a jury of their peers. She does this by carefully vetting every case and thoroughly investigating the facts to gauge the strength of the claim and formulate a winning argument. That said, her pursuit of justice is not blind. She will advise her clients if a case is more suitable for a settlement based on a meticulous calculation of risk.
Beth has an innate gift to see and meet her clients wherever they are on their litigation journey. When clients come to her, they are often angry and hurt – angry at the injustice they’ve experienced and hurt because of the betrayal of their employer’s actions. Beth bears witness to her client’s emotional pain and serves as a source of strength and support. When the defense uses tactics to bully or embarrass, she is there to give them a pep talk and insulate them from harassment. When doubt about the value of a claim creeps in, she is there to remind clients of their case’s potential for both personal and social impact. And when the journey comes to an end and a client is vindicated in court, Beth is there to celebrate her client’s victory.
