Cohen Milstein Sellers & Toll scored a million-dollar settlement in November for a Nepalese subcontractor who was killed while working in Iraq. It was the latest victory in the firm's campaign to enforce World War II-era legislation on behalf of foreign laborers working on U.S. bases in Iraq and Afghanistan. Agnieszka Fryszman, a partner at Cohen Milstein, said that, in the process of representing the Nepalese subcontractors, she and her colleagues uncovered a pattern: U.S. contractors were forcing workers to labor under "horrible" conditions and then summarily shipping them home when they were injured on the job…The firm began in 2006 to develop a pro bono niche in workers' compensation cases under the Defense Base Act.
