A strike is looming at Legal Services NYC, a provider of civil legal services for the indigent, after union members reacted with anger to what management said was its final offer to attorneys and staff who have been working without a contract since July 2012.
"Our members are not monolithic on anything," said Gibb Surette, president of the Legal Services Staff Association, which is a unit of UAW Local 2320. "But the reaction I heard overwhelmingly is people are livid. People are really furious," Surette said in an interview.
