Fair Housing Violations

[Shellie Johnson]

Recently, my company ran into an issue with a client being discriminative in housing practices. The client we represented decided to make it known (in writing... more than once) who the client did not want to rent to, and each that was named is a protected class of either age or medical condition (really an awful practice). We advised the client we were severing our business ties due to the nature of things. The client has since decided it would be in their best interest to start retaliation against my company. Has anyone ever run into this situation and if so what measures did you take to mitigate the situation?
