Todd represented me in arbitration after I was wrongfully terminated. As the process drug out and my spirits waned, we reached a point where the company offered a settlement for me to go away. Todd clearly explained my options, but when I told him that I thought I would take the offer he talked me through what taking the settlement would really mean. He helped me understand that while the settlement would be a quicker route to a financial benefit to my family and I, that it was not a good long term thing for us. Once I told him that I had decided to continue fighting, he told me how glad that he was that I made that choice. In that moment he had been a better advocate for my interests than even I was. He prepared me well for the arbitration giving me a solid strategy to stay on point or get back to relevant points as the company's advocate tried to steer us away. During the arbitration itself Todd was a very effective cross examiner drawing important points for our case out of the company's witnesses. Following the hearing, Todd's brief of the case better explained my case and my feelings than I had been able to in the two years I had been fighting for my job. As I read through it, I literally said "yes!" or "exactly!" Todd has a wonderful mastery of the language sometimes using words that I had to look up to understand and other times using very simple blunt terms, but always to the best effect. Once the decision was returned and the arbitrator ordered that I be returned to my job, Todd continued to advocate for me ensuring that they lived up to the terms of arbitrator's decision. I have told Todd and I really believe that Todd was a God send and blessing to me and my family.

I was referred to Todd McNamara by a colleague when I had issues with my employer. Todd was very clear, concise and professional through out my ordeal. The repeated abuses of my employer were almost too much for me to take, but Todd was always two steps ahead. Beyond being an exceptional legal mind, he is among the kindest and most supportive people I have ever met. You can't do better than to have him on your side in a labor dispute. Recently, I had the pleasure of seeing him at work in the courtroom and his presence and command of the situation was so striking, especially with respect to apposing counsel, that I was blown away. He is arguably the finest labor lawyer in the state and a true gentlemen. I can not recommend Todd McNamara, and his firm McNamara & Shechter LLP, more. He made ALL the difference.

Todd represented me in a wrongful termination suit against my former employer and I could never have asked for better. Navigating the daunting and complex mazes of Unfair Labor Practices, NLRB interactions and union involvement would have been impossible without Todd there all along the way. With unmatched professionalism and a stunning legal and philanthropic background, Todd had my utmost confidence from the very start of the case. In the end, we won. But with Todd as my attorney, I frankly never had a doubt. I highly recommend Todd McNamara and 18th Avenue Law.

Todd was very attentive. He answered all of my many questions very quickly. Helped me through s very tough situation!

I come from a family of lawyers. When I had my own need for an attorney, Todd McNamara, Esq was referred to me by my professional organization. He was kind with me and tough with my accusers. He writes exceptionally well and speaks equally well. And he knows his job. Every piece of advice was on point. Everyone respected him when he walked in the room. And he got a very satisfactory result for me. He is a lawyer's lawyer.
