Our TeamThe attorneys on our team bring a wealth of experience to the table.

We have represented employees in all walks of life and across income levels, and companies with anywhere from one to 100 employees. We have tried employment law cases before juries and judges, and negotiated thousands of settlements in employment disputes.
You will be assigned one attorney, but rest assured that we work as a team. Our attorneys regularly meet together to discuss cases, share ideas and provide advice and guidance. That way we are able to leverage all of our experience to help all of our clients. Our ApproachWorking with our employment lawyers is straightforward and client-focused. We begin with a complimentary information session with one of our consultants to understand your situation and explore potential solutions. If you've already filled out our Solutions Roadmap before this session, you'll receive initial feedback from our team. These initial steps are free of charge.
Should you choose to retain our services, your assigned attorney will conduct a thorough assessment of your legal rights and recommend the best course of action. If moving forward is the best option, your attorney will work closely with you to build a strong case or defense, striving to reach a resolution whenever possible. |
