"It was harder than the initial assault," Kostial said of being stalked.
The Aetna NDA only silenced her about the terms of her settlement, not the sexual assault.
Kostial has discussed her situation with Vincent White, a New York city-based lawyer who specializes in workplace NDAs and advises signatories on the risks associated with breaking them.
Kostial is fearful that if they wed, her wife's finances could be affected if either SAP or Aetna pursues her for breaking her NDA.
AdvertisementWhenever she's seized by anxiety, Kostial reminds herself of how hard she's fought to move past the sexual assault and why she's coming forward.
