Mr. Portune has also been involved with several highly featured cases which include: a landmark handicap discrimination case featured on ABC World News Tonight that helped in the passage of the ADA; a Buy-American Act case featured on 60 Minutes; and a Kentucky mineral rights case where Mr. Portune represented 69 aggrieved property owners in a case where he won a seven figure victory against a multi-national energy company in that company's only loss in a contested case.
