Christine E. Webber, co-chair of Cohen Milstein’s Civil Rights & Employment practice, represents victims of discrimination and wage and hour violations in class and collective actions. She is a tenacious, hands-on litigator, highly regarded for her ability to organize large, high-profile class and collective actions and work closely with economic and statistical experts on developing sophisticated statistical analyses for class claims.
Christine has been at the forefront of identifying the risk that using AI and algorithmic tools in making decisions about employment or housing can enable systemic bias. She was the only lawyer who regularly represents workers to participate in the Technical Advisory Committee on EEO and DEI&A Considerations in the Use of Artificial Intelligence in Employment Decision Making, which issued detailed report in December 2022. Christine is currently litigating a case challenging the use of an algorithmic decision-making tool in tenant selection, Louis v. SafeRent Solutions (D. Mass.), alleging the tenant scoring system has an adverse impact on Black and Hispanic applicants, and unfairly excludes those who use housing vouchers to pay for their rent.
Christine has represented clients in some of the largest, groundbreaking discrimination and Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) class and collective actions in the United States, including Keepseagle v. Vilsack (D.D.C.), a historic nationwide race-based discrimination class action brought by Native American ranchers and farmers against the United States Department of Agriculture resulting in a landmark $760 million settlement required the USDA to pay $680 million in damages to thousands of Native Americans, to forgive up to $80 million in outstanding farm loan debt, and to improve the farm loan services the USDA provides to Native Americans.
She was lead counsel in In re Tyson Foods FLSA MDL (M.D. Ga.), a collective action involving FLSA claims at over 40 Tyson chicken processing plants, which ultimately resolved the claims of 17,000 chicken processing workers, and Hnot v. Willis Group Insurance (S.D.N.Y.), where she represented a class of women vice presidents in Willis’ Northeast region who complained of discrimination with respect to their salary, bonuses, and promotions. This “glass ceiling” case settled for an average payment of $50,000 per woman, a record-breaking settlement in 2007 for a sex discrimination class action.
Prior to joining Cohen Milstein, Christine received a Women’s Law and Public Policy fellowship which funded the first of her four years at the Washington Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights and Urban Affairs in their Equal Employment Opportunity Project. There, she worked on employment discrimination cases, focusing on the sexual harassment class action Neal v. Director, D.C. Department of Corrections, et al. (D.D.C.). Christine participated in the trial of this groundbreaking sexual harassment class action in 1995. She also tried the race discrimination case Cooper v. Paychex (E.D. Va.), and successfully defended the plaintiffs’ verdict before the Fourth Circuit.

Current Cases
Aetna Gender-Affirming Facial Surgery Litigation
Gordon, et al. v. Aetna Life Insurance (D. Conn.): Cohen Milstein is partnering with Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund (TLDEF), now known as Advocates for Trans Equality (A4TE), and Wardenski P.C. in a putative civil rights class action against Aetna Life Insurance Company on behalf of three transgender women, who were denied coverage for medically necessary gender-affirming facial reconstruction procedures.
Bird, et al. v. Garland
Bird, et al. v. Garland (D.D.C.): Cohen Milstein represents a certified class action of 34 current and former female FBI agents, who claim they suffered systemic gender discrimination and subsequent termination from the FBI’s Basic Training program for new agents. The women bring their claims of disparate treatment and disparate impact under the Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. On October 16, 2024, the court granted preliminary approval of a $22.6 million settlement against the FBI.
Connecticut Fair Housing Center, et al. v. CoreLogic Rental Property Solutions
Connecticut Fair Housing Center, et al. v. CoreLogic Rental Property Solutions (D. Conn.): Cohen Milstein is partnering with Connecticut Fair Housing Center and the National Housing Law Project in the representation of Carmen Arroyo, as well as the Connecticut Fair Housing Center itself, in a cutting-edge legal challenge to CoreLogic’s algorithmic background check system which allegedly discriminates against African Americans and Latinos seeking rental housing in violation of the Fair Housing Act. Because of the novel artificial intelligence (AI)-related discrimination claims, the case has been identified as one of Law360’s “3 Real Estate Cases to Watch in 2022.”
Louis, et al. v. SafeRent Solutions, et al.
Louis, et al. v. SafeRent Solutions (D. Mass.): Cohen Milstein represents individual plaintiffs and the Community Action Agency of Somerville against SafeRent Solutions (formerly known as CoreLogic) in a putative Fair Housing Act violation (FHA) class action. Plaintiffs allege that SafeRent, which provides tenant screening services to landlords and property managers, has been violating the FHA and related Massachusetts state laws because its tenant screening software algorithm disproportionately gives low scores to Black and Hispanic rental applicants who use federally funded housing vouchers, causing them to be denied housing. In 2023, the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development filed a statement of interest in this case. On April 25, 2024, the court granted preliminary approval of a $2.275 million settlement and significant injunctive relief.
Ndugga v. Bloomberg, L.P.

Pa.): Cohen Milstein is leading a certified Rule 23 class action, consisting of over 15,000 past and present “direct care” homecare workers who brought Pennsylvania state law claims, and an opt-in class of more than 4,900 past and present homecare workers who have brought FLSA claims, for denied overtime wages against Public Partnerships, LLC (PPL). Homecare workers play a critical role in the care of individuals with disabilities. The case involves novel joint employer issues.
Rasmussen, et al. v. The Walt Disney Company, et al.
Rasmussen, et al. v. The Walt Disney Company, et al. (Cal. Sup., L.A. Cnty.): Cohen Milstein represents a certified class of current and former female employees of The Walt Disney Company and all Disney subsidiaries in gender pay equity dispute. Plaintiffs allege that Disney pays women workers in California tens of thousands of dollars less than their male counterparts in violation of California’s Equal Pay Act. On November 25, 2024 plaintiffs filed a motion for preliminary approval of a $43.25 million settlement. The terms of the settlement also include a number of best practices, including benchmarking jobs to external market data and organizing jobs within Disney's job architecture.
Salvation Army ARC Unpaid Wages Litigation
Salvation Army ARC Unpaid Wages Litigation: Cohen Milstein represents participants in Salvation Army's adult rehabilitation centers (ARC), who perform labor in support of the organization as a condition of their enrollment, in three lawsuits alleging that The Salvation Army violated federal and state laws when it failed to pay minimum wage to ARC workers.
Walmart Litigation

Past Cases
Beck, et al. v. Boeing
Bird, et al. v. Barr (D.D.C.): Cohen Milstein represented a group of about 29,000 female employees who had claims of sex discrimination against The Boeing Company, Inc. The certified claims address discrimination in compensation for salaried employees, access to overtime work for hourly IAM employees, and promotions for both. In granting class certification, the court noted that “the data yields statistically significant results of adverse impact on female employees in every facility and at every level within the Puget sound area.”
In Re Tyson Foods, Inc. FLSA Litigation
In re Tyson Foods FLSA MDL (M.D. Ga.), Cohen Milstein was lead counsel in a collective action involving FLSA claims at over 40 Tyson chicken processing plants, which ultimately resolved the claims of 17,000 chicken processing workers who had been denied compensation for donning and doffing required safety and sanitary equipment.
Keepseagle v. Vilsack
Keepseagle, et al. v. Vilsack (D.D.C.): Cohen Milstein represented a certified class of Native American farmers and ranchers, who alleged that the USDA systematically denied the same opportunities to obtain farm loans and loan servicing that had been routinely afforded white farmers. On April 28, 2011, the Court granted final approval of a historic $760 million settlement with the USDA, which agreed to pay $680 million in damages to thousands of Native American farmers and ranchers and forgive up to $80 million worth of outstanding farm loan debt. On March 26, 2018 the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal by two objectors for review of the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit May 16, 2017 ruling, which affirmed the U.S. District Court’s April 20, 2016 decision approving the plan for distribution of $380 million in unclaimed cy pres funds from the historic settlement.
Reynolds et al v. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company
Reynolds et al v. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company (M.D.N.C.): Cohen Milstein successfully negotiated a settlement of a nationwide FLSA class action involving thousands of employees at Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. call centers who were not paid overtime for mandatory pre-shift work.
