Simeone & Miller, LLP

Peter TerVeer, a Library of Congress management analyst, was fired in 2012 after his supervisor learned he was gay through a Facebook page and subjected him to months of religious harassment; Thomas Simeone helped secure a Title VII sex-stereotyping ruling that survived a motion to dismiss, and the case ultimately settled for $235,000.

Thomas Simeone led a class action on behalf of deaf and hard-of-hearing Washington, D.C., moviegoers, obtaining a 2004 federal court settlement that required AMC Entertainment and Loews Cineplex to install rear-window captioning systems, giving the D.C. deaf community broader access to captioned first-run films than any comparable market in the country.
