Six DLA Piper support staffers have lodged a formal grievance with the firm's D.C. managing partner, citing "erratic, unpredictable and turbulent behavior" by white-collar practice co-chair Nancy Luque as making them uncomfortable and creating "a hostile work environment," according to a copy of a letter obtained by Legal Times . The letter claims "secretaries along the hallway are unwillingly subjected to daily barrages of telephonic obscenity-laden screaming matches" coming from Luque's office.

White-collar defense lawyer Nancy Luque’s long been known for tenaciously representing controversial clients such as convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard and, more recently, former Washington Teachers’ Union official Gwendolyn Hemphill.
Though that fervor has won her acclaim from clients, it recently came back to haunt Luque, who not long ago was appointed co-chair of the white-collar practice at the D.C. office of DLA Piper Rudnick Gray Cary.
