Category Archives: Employment Retaliation

Doyle Dennis Avery LLP’s lawyers have proudly represented doctors for years. In fact, our lawyers already secured a $6.3 million verdict for a Texas doctor who the jurors confirmed was defamed and disparaged by Memorial Hermann Health System in attempt to protect its business interest, instead of patient safety. Our attorneys provide strong legal representation to physicians. In light of our firm’s extensive experience with doctors and health care workers, we were recently hired to represent a physician in a lawsuit pending against CHI St. Luke’s Health for retaliation for speaking out for his patients.

Doyle Dennis Avery LLP Vs. Memorial Hermann: Workplace Discrimination Wrongful Termination

Doyle Dennis Avery LLP prides itself on protecting and supporting workers who are victims of workplace discrimination or wrongful termination.  In these cases, typically the wrongful termination or discrimination occurs in retaliation for the worker reporting a workplace injury, reporting a safety violation, or reporting a violation of law.  Depending on the situation, the rights and remedies available to such a worker or whistleblower may fall under the Texas Labor Code § 451.001, which protects injured workers, Texas Administrative Code § 133.43 and Texas Health and Safety Code § 161.134, which protect hospital employees who report violations of law, or Texas Occupations Code § 301.413, which protects nurses who report safety violations.
