Chad Hansen
Chad's practice focuses on representation of public and private employees in wrongful termination, retaliation, sexual harassment and discrimination matters. Prior to joining Peter Thompson & Associates, Chad worked for three years as a staff attorney for the Disability Rights Center where he focused on disability discrimination in employment, public accommodation, and education.
In March 2007, Chad won a jury trial in federal court in Portland in the matter of Warren v. United Parcel Service. Mr. Warren had been denied job opportunities at UPS on the basis of his disability, epilepsy. The jury determined that UPS’s actions violated the Maine Human Rights Act and awarded Mr. Warren $75,000 in lost income.
Chad is admitted to the bar in Maine and is admitted to practice before the United States District Court of Maine.
