I engaged Mauro for the review and redline of a separation agreement from my former employer. From my first interaction to the last, he was prompt and thorough with his responses both via email and phone. He understood I had a very tight time frame and acted accordingly. When I had questions, he took my concerns seriously, listened well and made the appropriate redlines to the contract. He understood the sensitive nature of the separation and was kind throughout the process. Additionally, he carefully explained his billing process and the total was very fair for the work. Overall, I recommend him highly if you are in need of an employment attorney.

Mauro helped me work through a signing bonus issue with a former employer who didn't want to pay out. I received the originally promised amount plus more!

I am so so glad that I hired John as a consultant in a severance negotiation with my employer after my job was terminated. After consulting John, I received everything I asked for from my employer including multiple things I would not have thought to ask for without John's guidance. I don't have a ton of money so I was not sure if I should pay a lawyer for consultation. Now I can only think of the amount of stress and time and money it likely would have cost me if I did not hire John as a consultant. John and his team were professional, prompt, and efficient and knowledgeable. When I was stressed out about a timing deadline, John's team and John himself promptly provided effective answers to my question even though it was not a work day for them. Having never gone through this before, it was also great to speak with someone who has such an understanding of the ins and outs and whys and who can understand your situation and understand what and why it is happening and understand it from your employers perspective and explain it to you from their side. 5 stars. Perfect.

I unreservedly recommend Jeffrey.

I contacted Logan Howard regarding a labor dispute with the Texas Workforce Commission as it related to unemployment benefits. He contacted me the same day and was very thorough and clear explaining next steps and legal matters. I prepaid for his services and he was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and empathetic through this case which lasted several months. I was a bit hesitant initially contacting him since I only found out about him through reviews online, but the reviews were consistently positive. I can see why the reviews are so positive on a consistent basis, and I would recommend him without any hesitation regarding labor law. He even made time to show up for an appeal on a holiday. He goes out of his way to help and understand your case. Go Logan!

Russ, Michelle and their office staff assisted me in resolving a complicated felony DWI case. Let me just say, this was the most stressful time of my entire life; when you have a pending legal charge, you spend every day in limbo- feeling scared and uneasy about what the future may or may not hold. I am unsure if I could have made it through those months without the help of their office. As a local business owner and single parent, my life was completely chaotic, even before this added stressor. Russ and Michelle were incredibly knowledgeable, easy to talk to, reassuring and FAST; if I had any question, I could always just shoot over an email and expect a response within hours, sometimes minutes. They kept me informed and were completely honest about exactly what was happening and what I was to expect during the whole ordeal. I knew they were going to fight for my cause, and that they genuinely cared about what was going to happen to me. In the end, they were able to get me probation in a situation where I undoubtedly should have done at least some jail time. If you are skeptical about the price tag- don’t be. You get what you pay for, and your freedom is worth every penny. If you need the best, THEY ARE IT!

I contacted Kevin Madison due to his background. It was more than impressive, then after speaking with him on the phone, I realized how genuine he was and how much he actually cared about me as a person. I felt like my case would be small to anyone else but me, but he called me very shortly after me contacting him very concerned. Mr. Madison moved very quickly to handle it all, all the while caring for my concerns. I would recommend him to anyone with a sexual exploitation/ personal injury case.

Michelle not only helped me resolve an issue with my previous employer but also provided emotional support throughout the process as this was the first time in my life I was in need of legal representation. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of legal help especially with regard to discrimination cases. She also got back to me fairly quickly upon my initial correspondence with her (unlike some other lawyers I reached out to) and was willing to fully hear me out and assist me to the best of her ability. Additionally she kept me in the loop in a timely manner throughout the process. She is the best and well worth the price you pay for her expertise!

I talked with several employment attorneys before hiring Michelle to assist with my severance dispute. I ended up going with her because of a very good referral from a close friend who used her for a non-compete matter he had as an EVP. Michelle was well-versed in all aspects of executive severance and got me everything I wanted. It took awhile, but that was not her fault--there were several delays on my employer's part. Despite this, Michelle kept them on track and kept me updated. Her fees were reasonable, which I really appreciated. Could not be happier.

After working for my employer almost 30 years, I found myself in a very difficult situation where I was being pushed out of my position as a senior executive due solely to my age. Michelle helped me negotiate a very fair buy-out that enabled me to move forward with my career and did so in a very professional manner. Even the other attorney thanked her for her professionalism. I have no doubt that without Michelle I would still be working there, suffering and demoted, or that I would have been fired with cause and left with nothing. I joked with Michelle that she was sometimes more of a therapist than attorney but more expensive--that is what I needed at the time, and I really did appreciate what she called "hand-holding."

I went online looking for help and I was lucky enough to find Jennifer Spencer, Ron Woessner and James Hunnicutt. This was the first time I needed a lawyer and I had no idea what to expect. They listened to my grievances, along with every emotion I had buried inside for the past year. Then they told me what my options were and what to expect next.
Ron and James were diligent and professional in every aspect of my case. They were there every step of the way with encouraging words and wisdom. With their kindness and guidance, I was able to close a very difficult chapter in my life and know I did the best I could, then and now. Because of them and their amazing team, I’m able to focus on the future and move forward. I don't know how they do it day after day with the unsurmountable stress and endless deadlines but I know clients like me are forever grateful. I highly recommend their services.

Very thorough with the specifics and details of my case. Response time from the attorney and staff was prompt when I had questions and/or additional information to share that was pertinent to my case. A termination especially unexpected is emotional, a financial hardship, and can be complex; however with the support and guidance of this firm, I was exceptionally pleased with the outcome.

Jason Smith helped me back in 2018 with employment concerns. He got me back where I needed to be. I find myself back in a difficult position again with the same employer and he took time out of his schedule to listen. He told me what to focus on and what to let go. Then he got me on a path that will hopefully have an excellent outcome. For employment law he is the number one attorney I would tell other to contact. He isn't going to steer you wrong because he listens and cares! In today's world that means a lot.

Mr. Smith is the one attorney who was willing to listen. He broke down my concerns into categories for me and told me the options I had. When he wasn’t the right attorney for the concern he pointed me in the right direction to others who may be able to help. I had two consultations with him and he has helped me more than any other professional during a very difficult time. He cares about people and what they are going through. I highly recommend him and will go back to him if I ever need assistance again. Like I told him even though I never officially hired him I feel like I owe him a million dollars. A wonderful guy!

Jason Smith is a very knowledgeable Attorney. I hired him in 2012 when no other attorney would take my case. The other insurance company denied my Personal injury claim from the start even though their insured was issued a citation for illegal left turn. Jason Smith filed lawsuit and other insurance company requested mediation before trial and ended up with a settlement in my favor. I highly recommend Jason Smith for Personal injuries cases.

Melder Law is perfect for small businesses and entrepreneurs! I've used the services of Melder Law for my start up company. Rather than worrying about "the clock ticking;" you pay for a subscription (if you're buying a Starbucks every day you can afford this). For a set price you get unlimited access to legal advice... Perfect if you are on a budget and can't afford to blow the bank on legal advice. And as I have learned the hard way in the past... The earlier you get advice, the better - well worth the nominal cost!

Chris Mcjunkin is an extremely intelligent, highly motivated attorney with a laser focus when it comes to Employment Law. He won an extremely complicated case in my favor against a corrupt system. He was brilliant in his arguments before the US Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans resulting in the decision to move forward with the case. He is succinct in his arguments, always getting to the "heart of the matter". You can have confidence in his abilities.

If you want to talk to someone before taking the next step, I would definitely recommend Stacy Cole.

I was involved in a case with literally hundreds of other plaintiffs. I always felt that Camie was honest and fair in their dealing with me but it was not until after the case ended that I knew just successful the firm was.
I was involved in a case where a local coin seller was running a complex scheme taking orders and payments for products and holding the payments, hedging that he could buy the products cheaper in the future to fulfill the order. This all came to a crashing stop when several people placed large orders and the prices of precious metals skyrocketed making it impossible for him to fill the orders. At this point he also got shut down by the authorities and all his inventory confiscated.
During the whole process Camie kept me informed, made workable payment arrangements for services and continued to be on the cutting edge as the case proceeded.
Of the many people I talked to about this case, I believe the amount I paid for premium representation was among the most affordable Her results were absolutely astounding. My claim in the case received one of the highest payouts and I recouped among the highest percentage of my claim of any of the plaintiffs.
I recommend Camie Wade at the Thompson and Kerby law firm to anyone who is needing professional legal help.

He believes in winning and he does. He did an excellent job of defending me in a frivolous lawsuit brought against me by an HOA in Parker County District Court and I wish he still lived here so I could avail myself of his services again.

The information Attorney Scurlock gave me was not what I wanted to hear - but it was what I needed to hear, and he went through quite a struggle to get into communication with me.

What a Sexual Harassment Lawyer Can Do for You
A sexual harassment lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have experienced unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that affects their employment or creates a hostile work environment. These lawyers help victims understand their rights under federal and state laws, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and guide them through the process of filing complaints, negotiating settlements, or pursuing litigation. They also assist employers in implementing anti-harassment policies, conducting investigations, and defending against claims.
Whether you're an employee facing harassment or an employer seeking to address or prevent harassment claims, a sexual harassment lawyer can provide the legal expertise needed to navigate these sensitive issues.
