Professor McCord:

I was a victim of workplace mobbing at my last place of employment, the Washington, DC office of the law firm of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld.  I have been disabled since October 29, 1991.

I thought you might have a research interest in the following documents concerning my experiences:

Description of workplace mobbing that I experienced:

Proposed worker's compensation claim (2013):

Complaint to OSHA (2013).  The complaint is time-barred and not actionable, but I wanted to state my case for the record:

I hope these materials can be of value to you.

Dear Gary: Thank you for these additional materials. Workplace mobbing is real – and extremely unpleasant – and sometimes very damaging - for the one(s) on the receiving end. What is most sad is that those targeted are often the best employees. Wishing you every success in the future, Best wishes, LBM
