There's talk on the floor of a class action lawsuit against Boeing leave service center "The Reed Group " for a patern of Federal and State FLMA violations. Does anyone know what law firms are working this?

EXPERIENCE IN THIS.
ST. LOUIS - Richardo Lu filed a federal complaint on Jan. 25 in the Eastern District of Missouri against The Boeing Company for unlawful interference under the Family Medical Leave Act and disability discrimination.
According to the lawsuit, on March 12, 2021, Lu disclosed his disabilities and serious health conditions to his Boeing Manager, Ucechukwu Iheadindu and further disclosed that his disabilities and serious health conditions were causing him difficulty concentrating and severe sleeplessness. From March 20 until April 4, 2021, Lu took unpaid FMLA leave from work.
On April 14, 2021, Lu was diagnosed with severe depression and hospitalized, the suit says. On the same day, Boeing Company terminated Lu, who claims the termination was discriminatory and unlawful.
Lu seeks actual and compensatory damages including front pay, back pay, emotional distress damages, and punitive damages, attorney's fees and cost of suit. Lu is represented by Ryan Furniss of St. Louis.
Eastern District Court of Missouri case number 4:22-cv-00096
