I had the privilege to have, Ms. Catherine Mitchell, represent me as my attorney on a Class Action Lawsuit against a major Corporation. Not only was the lawsuit successful, but she represented me on an additional matter with the same company. The results for that was also excellent. I’m so pleased and very happy to have Ms. Mitchell represent me. She answered my calls and emails. She was very patient and an attentive listener. If you are looking for a Class Action Attorney, then I highly recommend Ms. Mitchell.

Parth Shah was assigned to my employment case; I was wrongfully terminated and I didn't know my rights. Parth Shah worked hard to get the best possible settlement for me. He kept me informed and updated and he answered all the questions I had; and I had a lot of questions. He was patient with me and made sure I understood everything. I felt that he cared about my situation and it helped to ease the stress I had. I am satisfied with the outcome and I would recommend Parth Shah to my friends and family in case they ever need an attorney.

Parth was an attorney assigned to my employment case. He did a great job of keeping me informed of the process, relevant communication, and potential outcomes. As I tend to ask a lot of questions, he was always very patient and informative. When dealing with a legal matter, it's important to establish that trust, which he did very early in my case, and he provided the confidence I needed to move forward.

Sam provided free consultation regarding job law. His advice was spot on and relevant to my situation. I took notes and ask him to proofread them. He made several corrections and made sure I understood the law and the strategy. He told me that I didn’t have a strong case, but recommended actions I could take to protect myself. Later when I needed a lawyer that specialized in Disability Law, he recommended a competent firm. Sam is a very good lawyer that is honest and cares about people, even when they are not paying the bills.

I had a wrongful termination case that was against a multinational corporation with a reputation for aggressively contesting lawsuits. After Sam heard my side of the story, he advised me of the pros and cons of continuing. He was undaunted at the prospect of going to trial in federal court if it got that far. He handled all the communications. I was kept informed of every step. Sam gave me advice and let me lean on his experiences to take all the correct steps. He found a mediator that was fair and unbiased. The case was resolved in less than six months. If I ever have to recommend someone who is compassionate yet tough enough to lay it on the line, it is Sam.

Prior to my being able to retire, I was "let go" from my position. As a professor, I had never received a bad review in my seventeen years of employment, and my students were very positive about my teaching. I had published books, represented my institution here and abroad and organized major colloquiums. My identity was wrapped up in being a professor, so I was at a complete loss about what to do when I lost my job. I will always be grateful for the help and understanding I received from William Corman. When he entered the picture, his sterling reputation was recognized by my former employers. His efforts on my behalf were taken very seriously. Any attempt I would have made regarding a settlement would have been dismissed. I ended up with a sum of money that would see me through a couple of years if I needed it. Time to pause and reflect on the future without the stress of financial hardship was essential -- required in order to think clearly and logically about how to go forward instead of falling into a lengthy depression. I thank William Corman for his help in making it possible to find my way to work that I enjoy. I am paid considerably more than a professor in my current job. I have recommended William Corman to others, and will return to him myself if I need an attorney. I should mention that my settlement was reached without having to go to court. That was a blessing. And, to add to the positive: William Corman is a personable, kind human being. His presence and attention to our conversations made a painful time for me much less
difficult.

I found myself in a serious employment situation, and was referred to Bill Corman by my sister who had researched local best practice attorneys for me. Bill was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable and articulate about the legal aspects of my case. He is direct and honest, and clearly has a wealth of experience and expertise in labor law. He kept me informed through the process, stayed on point despite my tendency to meander off on my emotions, and was very respectful of my finances in regards to his fees. He was always professional, respectful, and non- judgmental as he gathered information about the case. Bill was able to quickly achieve a positive outcome, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone with a labor/employment issue. He is results oriented and it is apparent that he genuinely cares about the best interests of his clients. If you must seek legal counsel, Bill can definitely get results and minimize the painfulness of the process.

I had taken on a large company where I had worked for personal wrong-doing. I received a lot of rejections from other attorneys; however, I knew that I had a strong case, and knew I just needed to find the RIGHT attorney that saw what I saw in my case.
Then, I met Mr. Corman. He invited me into his office, and listen intently to what I had to say, asked questions, reviewed some documentation that I had. By the end of the meeting he told me that he would take on my case. He also gave me a clear and accurate assessment of how much the fees would be ( he stayed true to this to the end of the case). There were subsequent meetings after that, and he never gave up on me or the case - always keeping me apprised on the progression of my case.
To make a long story short - We won the case!!! Without Mr. Corman's dedication, and belief in me and my case - I could not have won. Thanks again, Mr Corman.

I reached out to a few attorneys on a Saturday, a day after I was let go from my job. Valiant Law returned my call within minutes. I arranged a consultation for the following week. I didn’t even need to talk to any other attorneys, I knew that Valiant Law would be the best to handle my case and they proved that they were. Any time I called or emailed for an update, I always got a quick response and detailed answers to my questions. They made the process as clear as possible and I always felt that my best interest was their priority. In the end I received a settlement that I was very happy with. If you are looking for a firm to help you with anything from harassment to wrongful termination you have found the best one in Valiant Law.

Me and my business partners hired Kamran to form a California corporation. He provided exceptional service and met all of our needs - from filing, to drafting our operating agreement and consulting us on all legal questions for our start up. The best part about Kamran is that he takes the time to walk you through any questions/concerns one may have regarding the process. He is a fair and reasonable attorney which is very hard to find these days. I highly recommend retaining Kamran for counsel.

We were only looking for advice not thinking we had a case when we got in contact with attorney Eric Lambdin. After explaining our situation we were told we did have a case and he gave us great legal advice.
This was our first time dealing with a legal situation and we were very stressed to say the least and Eric was so incredibly helpful. He genuinely cared about our situation and was happy to answer all the questions we had. He guided us through the whole ordeal always staying in contact and always a quick response.
The outcome of our case was the best we could have hoped for and more. I hope we never have another legal issue in the future but if we ever did Eric would be our go to. He did an amazing job. Thank you

My mother-in-law passed away in June 2016, and although she had a will and a trust, we knew that family members would be an issue. We knew that it really didn’t matter what was in the documents she left, someone would fight the process.
The first thing we did was to contract Mr. Wojcik to determine what the next step was. After speaking with him and his paralegal Regina, they put out minds at ease and we decided to retain their services. During the entire process which took over a year because of her accounts, possessions, and house, the process went smooth. The correspondence provided from Mr. Wojcik through Regina was always spot on. It was obvious that they knew the law and human nature at the same time. On numerous occasions, letters came from opposing lawyers which appeared to be issues, but our minds were put to ease by the responses.
If you ever have to go through a process like this for a loved one, it only makes sense to hire someone that understands the process and has human compassion. I highly recommend Mr. Wojcik and his staff. They understand the law and the fees were very reasonable. Thanks again to the team.
Sincerely.

Davis-Wojcik-Duarte Law Corporation
Regarding Attorney Mr. Joseph Wojcik, Esq.
The sudden death of my husband devastated our family. We didn’t have a Trust to protect our assets. Lawsuits arose and our estate went into probate. It was complicated, involving business, corporate, real estate, trust and family law matters. Everything we’d achieved during our lifetime was in jeopardy.
I chose Attorney Joseph Wojcik because of his excellent reputation in our community. “Joe” is known for his integrity, leadership, pro bono public service, and a trustee on the school board. He will work for you!
Joe expertly guided me through a myriad of unforeseeable legal “bombshells” that emerged. His assistant, Paralegal - Mrs. Regina M. Anderson, remained in constant contact, providing emotional support, while giving instruction and clarification of my duties as Executor and Trustee of the Estate.
The best advise I can give anyone reading this testimonial is to “put your house in order” long before the need arises. I rest assured, my children are well served by a Great Team - Mr. Joseph Wojcik, Esq and Paralegal Regina Andersen. Godspeed. -PTA

Ms. Liston is outstanding! She took time out of her day more than once to make time to talk to me! From our very first interaction, it showed that she truly cared about my situation! Ms. Liston proved through every exchange that we had that she is very knowledgable and experienced. She was able to outline many possible outcomes and was able to offer suggestions immediately. I truly appreciate Ms. Liston and her work because not only is she skilled and talented, but she shows that she cares!

Frank is an honest, tough, and hard working lawyer. After being terminated from my job of 23 years I was devastated but Frank obtained justice for me. He fought long and hard to obtain what I deserved. My case was fought all the way through trial. Throughout years worth of litigation, trial, and almost a year post trial Frank always reassured me that the day would come when I got justice. He gave me great advice throughout my case. He listened to everything I said. He took my case personally and never gave up fighting for me. All along the way Frank had many small litigation victories that gave me the confidence to continue all the way through trial. He's was tough in action but caring and considerate of me. He knows exactly how to handle complicated employment disputes like mine! I am grateful to Frank for everything he did for me.

I met with several potential Lawyers who specialize in Employment Law and ultimately chose Mr. Alfonso due to his experience, attention to detail, and most importantly, ability to connect with me. He gave great guidance and advice throughout my entire case and stayed focused on the things that really mattered. He motivated me when I was down and assured me everything was going well when I was stressed. I will not hesitate to refer him to anyone I come across who has a legitimate Employment Law dispute.

As business owners, we are often faced with legal matters that can detract us from other business purposes. When such matters have arisen in my company, I have had the good fortune of being able to have my own legal team, Alan J, Leahy and his staff at the Leahy Law Firm, APC.
Alan's knowledgeable experience and cost-benefit analytical approach has consistently delivered effective results. Throughout the years, Alan has proven to be a formidable advocate and legal representative of our company. His knowledgable experience and immediate responsiveness, has enabled me and my company to stay focused on business. Being able to reply and trust counsel to advocate and advise my partners and I, whether the issues are corporate or in litigation, has been a valuable asset to my company.

We would certainly recommend the firm to others who need an intelligent and effective approach to their legal services.

We had an ongoing warranty issue with a large purchase that was not being resolved by the manufacture. We were referred to Patrick buy another attorney and he did not disappoint. Patrick had to deal with a challenging company that was very lazy when it came to communicating and addressing issues. Although it took a little longer than Patrick expected, (as mentioned the company was very lazy) he was able to secure a satisfactory resolution.

Vernon has been absolutely amazing. A year and half after I had been injured at work and after receiving medical treatment, it was time to start the settlement process. I was given an offer and wasn't sure if it was good. I found The Sumwalt Group on Google and saw the 5 star reviews. I reached out to them to see if I could get some advice. Vernon was the one to call me and gave me some wonderful free advice on countering and what would be a good amount. He also looked over the settlement agreement I received to make sure it wouldn't mess up any potential social security/disability in the future. Vernon made me feel like he cared and like he wanted the best for me on this settlement and helped me to avoid having to hire a lawyer and drag out the process. I hope I never get hurt on the job again, but if I ever do I will definitely reach out to them again.

We had a new employee with less than 90 days service, and after 5 weeks of classroom and OJT training, violate one of our most stringent work rules----twice. The first time we gave her a written warning, the second time it happened we terminated her employment. She filed complaints with both the Federal EEOC and the State ERD claiming discrimination based on her sex, age, harassment, and religion. The State ERD deferred to the EEOC to investigate and they found no merit in her charges. They then dismissed and issued a Right to Sue letter. The claimant filed suit in Federal Court and we engaged our attorney Al Seneczko to help us defend against it. He provided excellent advice, some of which was quite unique and effective with the court. He also handled all court documents and provided superb and very responsive service. We would definitely hire Al again to help us with an employee relations issue.

We have been clients of Al Seneczko for close to 25 years. He is by far the most thorough, creative, client-caring attorney that we have worked with. We do not ever want to be represented by any other labor attorney, so much that, in a recent work comp court appearance, we paid out of our pocket to have Al represent us rather than the attorney that was free of charge to us through our work comp carrier. We were not disappointed with our choice to do that as the outcome of the case was very positively in our favor. Al truly cares about your organization; almost as if he was an employee himself! I highly recommend using Al Seneczko for any labor issue you might have - you will not be disappointed.

I was terminated from a large fortune 100 financial services company at age 59. I was in sales and had been employed by this company and predecessors for 26 years. I had built a large and profitable book of business over my tenure however my termination was due to my inability to meet new business sales goals which had been dramatically increased shortly before the termination. Despite fierce opposition from their deep legal department, we were able to negotiate a very favorable settlement for my case. I felt very comfortable and confident in Larry Schaefer"s knowledge, interest and hard work on my behalf. I gave him a large amount of information and Larry studied it all and completely understood all the facts surrounding my case. Larry has had much experience representing age discrimination clients against other fortune 500 companies and this background made me very comfortable in accepting Larry"s guidance and strategy. I would highly recommend Larry for to anyone in a similar situation that I was in.

Mr. Ernsberger is an incredible attorney. When I contacted him, I was without hope and believed there could be no resolution to the situation I'd encountered with my Homeowner's Insurance Carrier. Subsequent to a fire loss in December of 2022, I was without payment and the carrier had canceled my policy based on incorrect information. Within two weeks of contacting Dan, the problems were solved. I've received payment and had my policy reinstated. He made the process simple and easy. Highly recommend him and his assistant Mary to help you in a prompt and efficient manner.

Timothy's research into my case was thorough and thoughtful. It was obvious that he had the experience and expertise I needed, but his care and concern for the human side is what really set this counsel apart. Finding an attorney with his integrity, thoughtfulness and courtroom savvy was a blessing to me, as I did not know which way to turn after being injured due to a landlord that did not act on my pleas for heat in the wintertime. His tenacity in the pre-trial and throughout the ordeal, and his knowledge and insight into the law and how it should protect me sent a strong message; do the right thing, or meet my lawyer, Timothy McIlwain in the courtroom! I can't recommend him highly enough even if we did lose the case (which we did not!)!

Daniela, pound for pound, may be one of the best discrimination attorneys in New York. Her practice may be small, but she punches far above her weight. My complaint was against an academic institution with resources and clout that made them appear to be invulnerable. Through her dedication, wit, and grace, we stood toe-to-toe with the defendant -- and their massive, predatory law firm -- at every step of litigation. Her confident, commanding presence, and willingness to stand up for you, is deeply reassuring, and she earnest regards you as a partner and an equal in the process. I am beyond grateful for Daniela and would highly recommend her.

I consulted Daniela concerning an employment discrimination matter. Even before being retained, she was very generous with her time. Although I was able to give her only short notice, she prioritized reviewing many gathered documents and provided suggestions to me. This enabled me to meet important deadlines. She impressed me as a very sensitive and detailed-oriented lawyer. She seems to have exceedingly strong loyalty to her clients.

I was put on the streets so I could not fight a case against police when the police illegally impounded my RV I was living in. I was getting harassed everyday by them, now homeless until I was able to put enough money together and bought a truck. 2 weeks after buying this truck outright from dealer for $3000, I was pulled over for no reason. It was literally just so they could impound my brand new truck again and keep me on the street homeless. I spent all I had on truck so I could not get it out of impound and they sold it at auction leaving me homeless with nothing once again. Completely unaware that the cops actually wrote a ticket for this incident, I missed the court date because of them leaving me homeless with nothing for the second time and can’t get mail. They are charging me with misdemeanor drug possession, misdemeanor possession of tear gas. Like wtf (I had a can of pepper spray on a keychain under the seat. There also was no drugs so no paraphernalia want to plead not guilty and fight the case but I don’t want to lose my bed at homeless shelter by going to jail until court date. How can I do this?

Deciding to take legal action is something I never thought I would be faced with; it's very personal, emotional, and not an easy feat. That's why choosing the right lawyer is the most important step in everyone's legal journey. I was lucky enough to have had such a wonderful attorney experience with Christina Cheung. She was my confidant and partner during a very difficult time in my life. I am so thankful for her dedicated service with my case. She was always available to chat when needed and her supportive voice/helpful guidance was instrumental in getting me through this challenging time in my life. I truly appreciate the time we spent together, and will always be thankful for her hard work! She is truly the best ;)

Mr. Petri handled a personal injury case for me several years ago. His investigators gathered the relevant evidence within hours after the accident. He fought like a tiger for me, and the insurance company settled shortly after he presented the evidence. Vern and his team did a super job.. I could not have been more satisfied.
On another occasion I consulted with him involving a matter related to an estate. He solved my problem quickly, and a his fee was more than reasonable for his professional advice.
I also worked for Mr. Petri as an expert witness with respect to economic damages from 1975 to 2005. I can testify that he is one of the best advocates a plaintiff can hire. He will take high risk cases that most other attorneys would not consider taking. By using the investigative skills he developed in the U.S. Army Intelligence Service, I have seen him uncover evidence that resulted in very large settlements and verdicts for his clients. I worked for Mr. Petri on two of those high risk cases that I believe no attorney in America could have done better for his clients. I recommend him without reservations to anyone seeking a plaintiff's attorney.

We Can not explain how blessed we are to have found Mr Petri ! My husband has sustained a lifelong injury due to malpractice. Mr Petri worked extremely hard non stop getting all the evidence he needed to get the case handled. It was constantly evolving with roadbumps from the other end but he never gave up. He always stayed in touch even if it was to just call & see how we were doing. He has a sincere heart for helping people....We are beyond blessed with the outcome... We gained so much more than just a lawyer in Mr Petri. He is our blessing, our Hero!

The removal from Federal Service was one of the most traumatic experiences in my lifetime, and the litigation would have truly been impossible to navigate without the expertise of Samantha Nicodemus. From the initial consultation, to the MSPB Hearing, and then the resulting Settlement- Samantha was there helping me every step of the way.
It was a long, difficult journey - and it is one you should never contemplate taking alone. I could not be more pleased with the result.
Thank you, Samantha!

Samantha Nicodemus is a Professional who is Knowledgeable and Experienced in Federal Employment Law! I had the pleasure to work with Samantha at the Alden Law Group as my primary attorney. I was a Federal Employee who was proposed to be removed from service. Immediately upon assignment, Samantha began working on my case and wasted no time meeting every deadline. She researched every accusation and made compelling arguments with evidence to explain the truth. She was extremely caring and compassionate throughout the whole process. I am thankful Samantha Nicodemus represented me and took charge when it was critical I have a legal voice. Did I get my Federal Career back, absolutely! Ten Stars!

Working with Samantha was an absolute pleasure! When I contacted the Alden Law Group and Samantha was assigned to my case, I knew that I was in good hands. She listened closely to my employment related concerns and she immediately took action. The employment matter was resolved within a two week time frame and it’s because of her diligent efforts. I can not thank her enough for her support. I would not be in the position I am in at this moment without her professional experience. I recommend Samantha without hesitation.

Paul is honest, hard-working, and smart. We found him to be very knowledgeable about the process of fighting in the North Georgia District for Long Term Disability Benefits under ERISA. My husband suffers from an unusual and misunderstood illness but has objective evidence of his disabilities (not just self-reported symptoms). Paul wrote a series of excellent briefs for our case, which resulted in a big win, including attorney's fees paid for us by the insurance company! In addition, our case was "published" so that other attorneys will be able to cite it as court precedent.

Paul did a fantastic job on my case. He handled everything in a timely manner. He was forceful when necessary with opposing council, but handled everything in a completely professional manner. I was completely happy with the outcome and would recommend Paul to anyone needing an attorney for a labor issue.

He has been the only attorney I have seen to reply to emails and/or respond to a phone call in a VERY timely manner.
This alone speaks volumes of who he is and how he addresses issues/questions.
I have been well pleased by his actions and would recommend him (and have) to others.

Lauren was co-counsel on my ADA discrination case. At first, I thought there is no way I want her respresenting me,... She's too nice. Ohhh was I wrong. Well, Lauren is nice, very nice, but don't let that fool you. Lauren is the kind of soft spoken attorney with a big stick.
I only wish I would have come to trust her sooner. She did not need me micromanaging her, she needed me to get out of her way and let her do her job.
Tell it like it is, but in a nice way.
Patience and understanding.
Thorough and organized.
Which attorney you hire is important. Choose wisely. I did.
Thanks Lauren!! You're the best!!
