I highly recommend Oleg Albert with Le Clerc & Le Clerc. Hands down, there is not a better person qualified to handle a sexual harassments/wrongful termination case around. Oleg Albert is an expert in is field. He is truly amazing, honest, compassionate, professional, down to earth and very responsive.
We had a long, initial consultation in which I poured out all of my necessary information regarding my case to see if he and his team could help me. I signed the retainer agreement that day. Oleg Albert was extremely courteous, sympathetic and empathetic, and he was truly concerned for my well-being.
Le Clerc & Le Clerc firm was professional and knowledgeable during the entire case process. They took care of everything. The legal process was performed with perfection, care and expertise. Deadlines were always met and I never worried how my case was being handled. My case took nearly a year and a half, and as we were approaching the end, I thought that I was going to just lose it but Mr. Albert kept me on track that ended in a satisfying settlement.
I would HIGHLY recommend Oleg Albert to represent your legal matters. Mr. Albert's drive, intellect and compassion set him apart from any other attorney I know. He truly cares about his clients and their best interests.

I want to start by saying; this has been a very interesting and rewarding experience that I wish no one should ever go through. But in the case anyone is faced with an unlawful and injustice situation, it calming to know we can call on Oleg. Back in 2019, I was involved in a lawsuit with my former employer. During this time, it was stressful emotionally and financially not knowing what would come of my case. Oleg and his team did an effective job walking me through the steps from beginning to end. Below, I have identified into three categories that presents my feedback.
Communication/ Responsiveness – Whenever I had a question or the lawsuit advance onto the next stage, Oleg was clear and precise on this delivery of information. This information was prioritized based upon what was relevant or what current concerns were. Oleg is easy to talk to. As he gets to know his clients more during the beginning process, I do see that he adapts his tone, speed, and vocabulary to mirror with his clients’ expectations. He is easily reached by phone, text, or email.
Knowledge/Experience – Good knowledge (including California concentrated) and years of experience in overall employment law segment. During the beginning of my journey, Oleg explained to me how my former employer violated the law in ways that I wasn’t aware of. He ran me through the steps of what should have happened vs what did happen. I value the fact that Oleg will not overpromise the outcome of my case, but gave me possible realistic scenarios even if it sometimes wasn’t in my favor. He did an excellent job explaining to me what to expect as we moved along in the process.
Effort – A lawyer that always has a plan is someone you want in your corner. During my process with Oleg, I felt he did all that was necessary to reach the best possible outcome of my case. He took extra action during the discovery process (took longer than I would like to have) but got all the info to put forth an effective case. During the length of the lawsuit, I felt Oleg was eager to push forward without losing any steam. Punctual and positive attitude from the day we won the case back to the day he accepted the case.

Oleg was a pleasure to work with. He thoroughly explained everything I needed to know and stayed on top of all communication. I always appreciated his honesty and I would recommend him to anyone I know. The office was reliable about getting back to me from start to finish too.

Worked 20 years for San Francisco in public service emergency response.I sustained a career-ending injury and was really worried about my future. I was too young to service retire and the only option available to me was a disability pension from SFERS.
Devastated, I called attorneys, two to be exact. The first attorney didn’t give me the time of day on the phone, suggesting that my case was not winnable, given the nature of my injury.
The second attorney, Kirsten Scott, who I Googled beforehand and knew she had documented success winning cases in front of SFERS, spent time just listening—that was important to me, just to have someone listen at that moment. She then asked follow up questions and requested some additional documentation, and after review agreed to work with me on my claim.
She is incredibly smart and knew exactly the strategy to win my claim. She’s also very detail-oriented and meticulously reviewed hundreds of pages of documentation and evidence, making sure every step in the process was complete and without error. She helped with preparation for testimony in front of an administrative judge.She also helped me obtain long term disability benefits through my employer which I didn’t realize were available to me. Most importantly, during this whole process she showed compassion and concern, and always made time to talk to me about my claim.
In the end, even though my claim presented unique challenges, the administrative judge ruled in our favor and I was granted my disability pension.I don’t think I would have had the same outcome without Kirsten’s commitment and expertise.
If you find yourself in need of legal representation in employee benefit matters, specifically disability pensions, then I unreservedly recommend Kirsten Scott.She is top notch!

Honesty, integrity, and caring are invaluable traits, especially when it comes to selecting an attorney and advocate to help you in your hour of need. When you find yourself in legal trouble, you want to ensure that the lawyer you engage will give you the best help and advice, without needlessly draining your already-endangered resources.
Margo Hasselman Greenough is a laudably honest attorney with abundant integrity who puts her clients first and will give you the help you need, without regard to her own self-interest.
My elderly father is facing a series loss of retirement income due to an insignificant error that might have disproportionally large consequences. The first attorney I reached out to, worried us with even larger consequences than we had imagined, offering to help reduce--not eliminate--those consequences, while charging a hefty retainer fee.
Ms. Greenough, on the other hand, responded to my inquiry quickly, professionally, and helpfully. After explaining what we could expect given the specifics of our case, Ms. Greenough went on to state that it “is unlikely to be cost-effective to hire private counsel.” Furthermore, she pointed us to an organization that could help us free of charge.
Ms. Greenough’s actions have demonstrated to me that she is the attorney that I want on my side, if ever I am in need of legal counsel. If you are looking for an attorney specializing in employee benefits and employment law, look no further than Ms. Greenough and Renaker Hasselman Scott.

I would like to express sincere and heartfelt gratitude for the work of Jesse Franklin-Murdock and the Center for American Liberty's extraordinary support in my case. From the outset, when I had that initial call with Eric Sell, and with Josh Dixon – they immediately pulled in strong resources and subsequently Mr. Franklin-Murdock. All these actions and the associated conversations demonstrated dedication, professionalism, superior competency, knowledge, and application of relevant case law by everyone who touched my case but most of all you, Jesse, so thank you! You yourself Jesse, went well above expectation by fielding calls and executing on some key action items, even while on international vacation.
Jesse, to you and the entire Center for American Liberty and the entire Dhillon Law Group – THANK YOU for defending my rights with vigor, professionalism, superior application of law, a successful outcome, and for the intangibles like diligence, listening, empathy and that unique feeling that I, as a client, actually matter. Ten thousand kudos to you!

Mr Graham's performance on my case was shocking. He repeatedly demonstrated a dangerous lack of attention to detail generating error ridden discovery documents and a frustrating inability to comprehend simple financial transactions. Despite enormous fees, Mr. Graham achieved little to nothing on my behalf.

He’s a nice guy but he does not have a productive bone in his body. His paralegal and him would charge for opening emails and not respond to opposing counsel. You would do much better setting out of correct without Andrew representing you. He will collect $19k in two months without making any progress on your case.

Andrew is very honest, he calls it as he sees it. He is straight forward very professional. He seeks out the facts and is very quick to point out the points of the case. He's a husband and a father and knows family values. He doesn't let his ego get in the way when dealing with attorneys he sticks to what's best for the family. Andrew is confident and professional and handles himself remarkably well.
