When I first contacted Dawn, I wasn't sure if I had a claim or not. Dawn helped me understand what my options were and gave me great advice along the way. She helped me negotiate severance and the outcome was very positive. Dawn was reliable, knowledgeable and very responsive. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an employment attorney.

Dawn was quick, responsive, and diligent in representing me and my interests. She negotiated severance for me and gave me great advice along the way. I couldn't be happier with her results for me and I recommend her highly to anyone needing an employment attorney.

I am thrilled I consulted and hired Dawn for my case. Dawn was great to work with in everyway. She is very passionate and extremely knowledgeable. Dawn was very accessible, explained everything along the way and took the time to listen. Positive outcome.

I had a complicated wrongful termination/all-kinds-of-issues case with my employer of 7 years (a very large and intimidating Bay Area institution!) Dawn was so good at sorting through the issues, knowing what to do and when to do it, and identifying what was relevant and what would help my case. I consulted with several attorneys before choosing Dawn and I'm glad I did. Many attorneys who work on contingency do volume, not quality but Dawn definitely does quality. I highly recommend her!

Dawn is extremely knowledgeable of the law and its current practice by both plaintiffs and defendants. This gives her a valuable strategic advantage. Perhaps just as important, she showed great patience and great empathy in her dealings with me; she’s been there and knows how tough it can be emotionally, mentally and financially. She proved herself a great ally and champion for my cause. I would recommend her without hesitation.

We worked together to get resolution with a messy situation my employer put me in. Dawn kept me in line with what we needed to do and without Dawns help I would have been lost. Dawn cares about her clients and the compassion she shows is not something you would expect from an attorney I have used another attorney and Dawn puts my faith back in the whole thing.

When I initially called Dawn to discuss my situation, I was not sure if I had a real claim or not...and if I even wanted to pursue it. After sharing with her the situation, she confirmed and made a great recommendation that I felt comfortable pursuing. Within one week, she was able to get me a resolution that I found fair. I appreciate she went to bat for me and helped me through a hard time. I would highly recommend connecting with Dawn to talk through your situation. She will have a great recommendation that you are comfortable with.

Ms. Knepper was honest, thorough, and excellent at staying focused on the details requiring attention. Her case management skills were exceptional. I don't do reviews but this service was above and beyond expectations.

Dawn was great for me - she helped with a negotiation that I was too emotional to handle at the time. I appreciated her honesty in our discussions and her sense of urgency in my situation. The outcome she achieved was what I was looking for. Thanks Dawn!!

I can't say enough nice things about Dawn. I called (feeling very lost) after a sudden termination and she was so considerate, patient, and knowledgeable with me during my tough time. I think it speaks to her integrity that although I ended up not retaining her services long-term, she offered me a consultation after reading through my severance package and hearing my experience. She outlined her very transparent rates and process and what I could expect if I decided to continue. But the whole time I felt in control and very supported. I learned during this process she spent 20 years writing the severance agreements I was thinking of contesting so I felt in very good hands. Though I hope to never be abruptly let go again, if I am I will absolutely be retaining Dawn and forwarding anyone who needs assistance her way.
