Attorney Mark Schwartz is representing two women who have come forward against Boyce.
"I think they are happy that he's been put on leave. Some of them were really fearful of retaliation," Schwartz told Action News on Tuesday.
Schwartz says one of the women filed an age claim against Boyce over the alleged hiring and treatment of other younger women.
The second woman being represented by Schwartz alleges she was groped by the emergency services leader before she ultimately quit.
