A Manhattan appeals court has upheld a $450,000 arbitration award against Thelen Reid Brown Raysman & Steiner for firing a partner in violation of an employment contract. Lee A. Goldberg joined the former Brown Raysman Millstein Felder & Steiner in 2005 but was fired in 2006, just before the firm's merger with San Francisco's Thelen Reid & Priest. The court affirmed an arbitrator's finding that the firm's "subjective opinion" of Goldberg's performance could not guide interpretation of his contract.
