LOS ANGELES, June 10, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Finkel Firm, a leading employment law firm in Los Angeles, proudly announces a breakthrough victory in a disability discrimination case that has set a precedent for future litigation. On April 13, 2023, a federal court jury in Los Angeles unanimously awarded a disabled child $250,000 in emotional distress damages against PLB Management LLC (Park La Brea), a prominent landlord in the region.

In the case of C.R. v.
