Without tell the long story behind it, the request is for a local (N VA) lawyer, or legal expert, who can advise on issues related to employment status of UBER drivers in the current legal environment in that state (or possibly neighboring DC &/or MD). This would be especially regarding financial responsibility for auto accident and injury as a consequence. The Uber driver was NOT at fault, but UBER is trying to get him to go away with a small financial settlement. Can any of you help him get in touch with some specialized local legal help in this terrible situation. The person in question is a Kurdish immigrant to the US with many previous injuries due to have been a bodyguard for a US serviceman in Middle East wars. > > Thanks in advance for your help. > > In solidarity, > > Joe Berry > ______________________ > co-author with Helena Worthen, of Power Despite Precarity: strategies for the contingent faculty movement in higher education.
