Anna Greenberg’s case against Dollar Tree made national headlines, including in USA Today’s article, “Dollar Tree sued by Houston woman who was sexually assaulted in a store.”

Ms. Greenberg, a partner at Houston-based Blizzard Greenberg, represents a woman who is suing the discount store chain after she was sexually harassed and assaulted at the River Oaks location in Houston. The petition claims that there had been multiple similar incidents within the store the same period.

The article describes how the woman’s friend found a substance on the back of her sweatshirt upon leaving the store. The victim quickly realized the man in the Dollar Tree had sexually assaulted her while he was making “vulgar remarks” to her inside the store.

The lawsuit alleges Dollar Tree creates a dangerous condition by understaffing its stores, which contributes to their longstanding history of theft, robbery and other issues with violent crimes.
