If I could 10 stars I would. Pershing is amazing. When I presented my case to them back in October their exact words were “It is a long shot to get EDD to dismiss your case, but we will try”. This issue I sought out for their help was about 9 years old. I thought all hope was lost and I would be stuck with an over-payment that I felt was done in error. I had been trying for about 6 years to figure it out myself. I sought out some legal help and the advice they gave me was “Well, looks like you will have to file bankruptcy”. I was almost ready to pull the trigger on that option, but I decided to do a google search for an EDD law firm, Pershing Law was one of the first ones on the top of the list. I decided to call them just to see what they could do. I talked with Charlie about my dilemma and he assured me that they have seen worse and that they would be able to help. They took it over from there and got all the information from EDD and constantly kept me informed of what was going on. When I received paperwork in the mail from EDD I would call them up and they would talk me off the ledge and say “It’s OK, this is what that means”. When I would panic, they wouldn’t. They were always easily reachable by phone and would call back if I left a message. Since I work out of town, they arranged for my hearing to be by telephone which was convenient for me since I work full-time and out of town during the week. The night before the hearing, both Aasff and Charlie called me and walked me through the process of the hearing and helped me frame my thoughts and what I needed to say (100% truth….no lying), TAKE NOTES….PLEASE. The day of the hearing, Charlie called me about 20 mins before and walked me through what was going to take place and refresh my memory of the night before conversation. Then the trial started and it took about 20 mins. to read all the evidence into record and then the judge started asking me questions…….just like Pershing Law told me the judge was going too. I answered truthfully and with passion. The hearing lasted about 30 mins. and I was nervous the whole time….but knowing Charlie was on the line assured me that it would be OK. Charlie told me before the hearing that “We are going to swing for the fences and see what happens”. I was just hoping to get the 30% reduced and then make payment arrangements to EDD for the rest of the amount I thought I owed. Pershing Law always always always was straight with me and never promised me any result other than telling me that they will probably be able to get the 30% interest waived. I received a call from Pershing law 4 days after the hearing and they were in receipt of the decision. Their first words were “Keith, we not only hit a homerun, but a grand slam out of the park bases loaded bottom of the ninth tied ball game with 2 outs in game 7 of the world series”. Not only my 30% fees waived, what money that EDD said I owed (over $23,000) was waived. I had to ask them 2 or 3 times “I don’t owe anything….nothing, zip, zilch nada”. They said exactly and in fact they told me that EDD might owe me 5 weeks of pay….but if that doesn’t happen, I won’t complain. This has been the biggest rock on my shoulders for 9 years. I had many sleepless nights and there was a judgement on my credit report which would have prevent my wife and I from purchasing a house in the future…..not anymore. Pershing is amazing. My advice…..listen to their advice and if you don’t understand something, ask them to explain in layman’s terms…..and they will. I will always recommend their services to anyone that asks UPDATE: About a month after the decision, EDD called me and they refunded the $23,000 they had withheld. We were able to pay off some medical bills for our medically ill daughter.

I had an issue with them about charging me after my case had self resolved by my own efforts. When this was brought up they agreed to correct the mistake.

I hired them for an appeal from my employer ,I can't express how great they were . I won my case but employer appealed again and I had no money for a lawyer but they came to defend me again at no charge ,they went above and beyond for me and I would recommend them highly to anyone Thank you so much Pershing Square law firm!

Excellent attorneys very professional I was disqualified from edd for working a job 3 days and then edd tryed to say I owed 2thousand dollars to them was stressful I didnt need another bill and without a job would been hardship instead I ended up winning and edd payed me 2thousand dollars out thanks pershing!!!

Very professional

An amazing honest service I called first time for free consultation, I spoke with the Staff Member, I couldn’t control myself, I suddenly cried because I had unfair situation with unemployment insurance, the Staff Member understood my situation and worked quickly to help me. Every time, I called the office, they replied and answered my questions clearly. Attorney Assaf took care of my case, he is organized and took my documents through the app. I was nervous before my hearing, he understood my situation and gave me the right advice when I met the judge. He is smart, patient and very knowledgeable Attorney. I highly recommend the Pershing Square Law Firm!

I had Assaf. He is a very caring. He doesn't make you feel like an obligation. He enjoys his job and knows how the judges behave before going into the courtroom; which allows for a planned approach to win the case. I won thanks to Assaf.

Too bad there is not an option for 10 start because this Firm deserves it. After having multiple consultations and denials, I felt there was no hope for my case. Pershing Square Law Firm then reached out to me and at first, I tried brushing them off. After talking with Assaf, whom i highly recommend, brought light into my case. Their hard work and dedication paid off!! Thanks Assaf.

This place is amazing, stood by me the entire way and got me the positive results I wanted. I highly recommend this place to anyone that needs help with unemployment issues. A++

Assaf represented me at a unemployment appeal hearing. This guy was great! I'm so glad he represented me. The day before he calls me up and breaks down the hearing process. He reviews everything with me and puts my mind at ease. He really stood up for me in that courtroom. I'm very pleased with his services. If I ever need another attorney I'll go with him and his Law Firm.

Wouldnt reccomend this👍👍
