Paid for a 30 minute consultation for legal advice only to be misled by a false hope and given vague information about currently changing laws. Then gave a retainer of almost double the regular cost and find out on my own that her idea was mission impossible.

Mr. Barbari was suggest to me through another attorney and I am 100% grateful. He has made my legal experience quick and stressless. He is easy to get in contact with and quick to call back if a call is missed. He made sure he was clear when giving information and answered any questions I had. I suggest Mr. Barbari to anyone in need.

KYLE was FINALLY that ONE attorney who wasn’t all about taking my money as his first priority.
Kyle was very empathetic & thorough when it came to answering each & every one of my questions.
KYLE is very honest & forthcoming with information. He is very “no-nonsense” & did not sugar coat things.
After having experienced a grueling, more then expensive, unethical experiences with my two former attorneys on the same case matters…. I FINALLY found KYLE INGRAM!
Look no more. He’s YOUR guy! A+++++

I want to take this opportunity to THANK YOU for the OUTSTANDING COUNSEL that you have provided from the start to the present moment. I have learned SO MUCH from your knowledge of the EEO Process and the tactics that discriminators exercise against their victims. Your guidance and mentorship on how to focus on the important aspects of a case as well as how to convey my experiences proved invaluable in my complex situation. I could not have been able to effectively articulate my Formal EEO Submission without you. More importantly, I appreciate your honesty throughout the process in gaining extended litigation support.
You are an AWESOME ATTORNEY and heaven sent. Should anyone be in need of an attorney that will provide ground truth in the EEO Process, guidance on articulating your claims (the most important aspect of your case), and requires a thorough review of your case in an effort to point you to where you can locate the explicit details of your claims or when the start of your discriminatory tactics are being exercised against you, Kyle Ingram is the Man for the job. You will not be disappointed. God Bless and may Justice be served to all those that Discriminate against innocent victims.

I have a disability EEO case with my workplace. So far, through consultation, I've spoken to Kyle twice and he is very thorough. He went above and beyond to make sure I understood the strong points of my case and gave me realistic advice/ expectations. He is going to make sure you make the most out of your time and money. Also, he is very knowledgeable about EOO complaints and workplace discrimination. Moving forward, I know exactly what I need to do. My case is still in the early stages, so I may not need to retain him, but if I do, I feel good about where my money is going and know I'll have great representation.

I contacted Dave when my former employer violated my severance agreement. Dave helped guide me through a difficult negotiation, one in which I was forced to accept a "less bad" outcome for the sake of moving on with my life. David quickly assimilated the facts, worked with me in thinking through the trade-offs between litigating and settling, and helped me get the matter resolved through settlement before I incurred large-scale fees.

Mr. King successfully represented me in a complicated employment related case. The time difference between the United States and my overseas location was not an obstacle for Mr. King who was always available 24/7.
Mr. King explained each step of the lengthy legal process, always answered my questions with complete honesty and in plain English (not attorney terminology), ensuring that I understood. In addition, Mr. King is a skilled mediator.
Mr. King is unique. He cares about his clients and really does go the “extra mile”.

Dr. King was recommended as a good lawyer by a colleague and friend. Dr. King during the negotiations with the American agency brought to fruition what we wanted to obtain. Not only did he behave as an appropriate lawyer on the issues, but also as a person who gets involved in the issues and people he represents. He personally was always worried about me, since my wife had passed away due to an accident during the negotiations.

I had a great pleasure working with Mr. Lloyd. He was assigned to my case after the passing of Mr. Joseph Kaplan. He quickly got acquainted with my case and started asking the right questions. He included me in all communications and provided timely responses to the agency. He is friendly, diplomatic, calm, and has a great ability to deliver a message in a clear, compelling, and concise manner. I experienced first-hand all the qualities and traits he exhibits. Mr. Lloyd is an astute attorney who has compassion for his clients, willingness to listen, great judgment, excellent communication skills, a proven track record, the necessary experience and knowledge, and a deep understanding of the law. I trust him and trust his judgment and believe he has everything a client needs in his/her journey to pursue justice.
Mr. LIoyd provided honest opinions even though that – at times – was not necessarily what I wanted to hear, nor did they represent the best outcome for his bottom-line. Still, he believed it is in my best interest to listen to the truth. He put my interests above others and clearly understood the financial burden associated with my legal fight.
Mr. Lloyd is very responsive. He answered my e-mails on the same day or the next day. Additionally, he is strategic and understands the rules of the game. He is an exceptional and well-respected lawyer, and he was unstintingly generous with his wise counsel and sympathetic ears.
I strongly recommend Mr. Lloyd to Federal Employees who endured injustices by their agencies. He has a passion for serving justice and be a voice for those who been victimized by injustices. He is someone you can trust, rely on, and rest assured that he will do everything within his power to fight for you and be on your side until justice is served.

I truly can't say enough good things about Jason and his team - they are incredibly effective, professional, and consistently wonderful to work with, even in very high-pressure circumstances. Jason and his colleagues were exceptionally patient with and responsive to my concerns, consulting with me on every step of the process and explaining different options. Beyond their impeccable legal representation and client advocacy, I also felt personally cared for and supported during what was a particularly nightmarish experience of workplace harassment. When needed, they also devoted significant extra time and effort to my case to ensure that my interests were protected. I am incredibly grateful for their representation and wholeheartedly recommend Zuckerman Law to anyone seeking justice in employment-related matters.

I hired Mr Zuckerman to pursue an action against a former employer that was attempting to use deceit in its pursuit of federal contracts, and which fired me for not participating in its schemes. Jason was not just very responsive, he was also engaging, spending a good deal of time and effort with me on the phone and by email learning the ins and outs of the case, discussing strategy, laying out alternatives, anticipating counter-arguments, etc, all with the highest integrity. In the end, Jason was able to negotiate a substantial settlement for me, and I believe the company learned not to fire employees for failing to participate in lying to the government. All in all, a very good outcome.
I have had the opportunity in my career to interact with numerous attorneys. Jason truly stands out. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a lawyer for wrongful termination and related employment issues.

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 Kristin Alden and her associates. From the initial consultation, to the MSPB Hearing, and then the resulting Settlement- Kristin and her staff were profoundly competent. I could not be more pleased with the result. It was a long, difficult journey - and it is one you should never contemplate taking alone. Thank you, Kristin!

She was exceptional - smart, analytical, professional, strategic and empathic.

I highly recommend her without reservation!

This was at no extra cost to me or my daughter and he handled it perosnally. Doug really cares about his clients by showing compassion and empathy and does everything in his power to get the maximum amount of money for his clients. I would definitely recommend Douglas Sparks to anyone!!

I was rear-ended by a pickup truck and suffered serious back and neck injuries. Unfortunately, the driver that hit me had a relatively low liability insurance policy. But Mr. Sparks got that insurance company to settle for the driver’s maximum limits. Then, he got my insurance company to pay a lot more because I had a much higher underinsured policy coverage limit. I was very happy with the final outcome.
My family and I suffered a lot in the accident’s aftermath, and Mr. Sparks stood by me every step of the way. He is an incredibly detailed, skilled and accessible lawyer … and a really good human being too.

Mr. Sparks took the time to make our situation a priority, we got emails and phone calls right away, he is available when you need him!! He is extremely professional and takes his role very seriously and can be trusted to the utmost degree. He does not make you feel like you are a hassle for asking questions or that you are just a paycheck like many, many others we spoke to. I would recommend Mr. Sparks to anyone that has even the slightest doubt that they may need representation, there is no one I would want or trust more to have in my corner.

Jennifer is a pro at what she does. She puts her clients first and that is reflected from her interactions with you to her tenacious will to get you the best outcome possible. I did my due diligence and spoke with different attorneys for my wrongful termination case and she by far gave me the sense of what the reality of the situation was as opposed to a perception of it. She worked hard to get me the best possible resolution as quickly as possible. The whole processes felt swift and she was always available to talk about any of my concerns. I would highly highly recommend Jennifer, in my opinion you couldn't be in better hands!

I was amazed how prepared and thorough Subha was during my consultation. Other attorneys I consulted with would read my file 5 minutes before and would not have a clue . She knew the in and outs of my case after reviewing my file and you can tell she took the time . This is an excellent top notch attorney who actually cares and would highly recommend her and the firm . You will not go wrong and will have someone extremely knowledgeable about the EEO process . Prestigious attorney and firm.

I obtained the Legal Services of Matthew T Famigliette in assisting me with applying for Disability Benefits with the Social Security Administration after receiving a denial letter.
Once Mr Famigliette agreed to represent me he always corresponded by email and phone his communication with the VA Hospital and its Medical Staff as well as Representatives of the Social Security Administration. I would definitely commend my lawyer for his passion, kind and encouraging words, and the reassuring feeling he will give 110% of effort to get justice on your behalf.
Sincerely and with much GRATITUDE

Matt is, quite simply, an exceptional attorney. He is easily the most thorough, tenacious and hard-working professional I have worked with in any capacity. He consistently goes above and beyond in everything he does.
To the specifics of my case, Matt represented me in a long and complex social security disability claim. Frankly, I have no idea how I would ever have managed the process without him. Matt is a master of the specifics of the social security system and its many players. This was my first encounter with the social security disability process and it was highly stressful. Thankfully, Matt is a caring and understanding advocate, even as he is a fierce and implacable attorney.
My experience working with Matthew Famiglietti's law office was outstanding from start to finish. Not only would I hire Matt again, but he's also my #1 attorney recommendation to all my family and friends. I just wish I had him managing the rest of my life!

Working with Jonathan Puth was a wonderful experience. He guided me through the process and represented me in such a skillful and thoughtful way that I felt very confident from start to finish. Jonathan's deep understanding of state and federal laws and the nuances of those laws really gives him an edge. He is someone who is driven by doing good in the world and this ethos is apparent in his work.

Calling Jonathan Puth was the best move I could have made. Concerned that my boss might want to let me go, Jonathan prepared me for my meeting with the Managing Partner of my firm. He told me what to say, and more importantly, what not to say. I was able to go into, what was supposed to be, my performance review, feeling calm and ready to deal with whatever transpired. Jonathan continued to be wise, caring, patient, and willing to discuss any concerns or issues that I was trying to navigate. His counsel was incredibly effective. I was able to maintain my confidence and self-worth as I sat across the table from my employer who would have benefitted from me feeling vulnerable and unprepared. As Jonathan provided guidance that supported me through preparing a response to my employer and negotiating a severance package, I’m certain that his assistance put me in a position of being able to secure a generous severance package and I did not even need to argue with them. Without working with Jonathan I don’t think my employer would have come to the conclusion that they did which was that it would be better for them to be generous, than having to enter into a prolonged and difficult negotiation where they risked paying even more.
If you are in need of a great lawyer, Jonathan will do a fantastic job for you.

I have called him several times since then for advice. He is so personable, I actually regard him as a friend. Also, it makes me feel more secure in my life that I have a great attorney I can turn to.

My firm was experiencing a major expense reduction and my position was to be eliminated. There was a meaningful discrepancy between what I believed the firm's obligations were to me and the firm believed their obligations to be relative to severance. I initially engaged with Scott Oswald as he reviewed the merits of my position. Subsequently, David Scher assumed responsibility for advising me and interfacing with the firm. The dynamics of the conversation changed immediately upon Dave's involvement and we had full resolution on primary terms within three weeks. Both attorneys were professional, knowledgable, responsive and very effective in a negotiation environment.

I highly recommend David Scher and The Employment Law Group (TELG) for labor and employment matters.
From the outset, he served my interests in a very timely, professional and knowledgeable manner. David is always prepared for opposing counsel's next move. Working with Scott Oswald, the two are a formidable team that protects their clients interests, along with strong involvement and support of the firm.
David's skilled handling of my case and cool head led to an out of court settlement early in the litigation, enabling me to save tens of thousands of dollars in upfront costs and possibly two years of litigation and appeals.
He along with the team at TELG are to be commended for their commitment to professionalism and protection of the rights of the everyman and the everywoman, who find themselves facing discrimination and retaliation, or other unlawful acts, by employers who believe they can violate the law with impunity.
David and TELG prove them wrong!

Ross represented me, a federal employee who had worked for a financial regulatory agency. Five years after the original incident, an EEOC Judge issued a notice finding discrimination and found the Agency discriminated against me based on my disability in connection with its failure to accommodate me and constructive discharge during my probationary period. Ross Fishbein, worked tirelessly on the case for nearly three years and helped negotiate a settlement agreement with the agency for $425,000 to compensate me for back pay, expenses I incurred, and payment of full attorney fees. The settlement was just before the hearing on damages and was likely a better outcome than an EEOC-ordered reinstatement. Ross is professional, compassionate, and extremely well-informed. The EEOC judge commended him for his strong writing skills and hearing presentations. He met all deadlines and did an excellent job. He took the time to explain the different legal strategies, listened to me as a client, and provided advice, presented possible outcomes, all while leaving the decisions on the development and settlement in my hands. I would highly Ross to other federal employees needing advice and a winning team to represent them. Kristin Alden and Ross Fishbein represented me at the EEOC. Thank you so much!!

I hired Ross to represent me with my EEO case against the government and he did a great job. Ross is an intelligent, hard-working, honest attorney that always made himself available. During my case, Ross demonstrated that he was concerned about my work life and how things would affect me after the case was complete (besides just a payout) which meant a lot to me. At one point during the case, my Agency's attorney tried to make excuses for their behavior and poke holes in my case, which was pretty infuriating and disrespectful. Ross was professional and he successfully destroyed the other attorney with solid case law and I was proud to have him on my side. In conclusion, I would highly recommend hiring Ross Fishbein if you plan to take on the government. Expect a long upward and unfair fight. I know it can be difficult to know where to turn when you are wronged and you will feel alone. Ross won a settlement with my case and I know he will do his best for you too.

Bad experience. Incompetent and rude. I have a $5500 bill as proof of the bad service I got. I can attach the proof here if the firm disputes this review. Solon Phillips gets into an emotional shouting match when held accountable. This might be the only real review here. Don’t fall for it.

I am so happy I was referred to Peter and the Antonoplos & Associates firm. I required some Estate work and Peter and his firm were delightful to work with. The quality of work coupled with the level of professionalism and speed of delivery were outstanding.
Peter is an attorney that is genuinely engaged and on top of things. His entire staff was great to work with, prompt in replying, educated on the matter, and courteous. I’ll also mention that the front of house client care received from Daria was a breath of fresh air. I’m not sure when I’ve received total customer care at this level of quality. I thought it was a thing of the past. I highly recommend this firm.

Bom dia Leo.
Extremamente grato por tudo!!!
Meu caso que chegamos a pensar que teríamos que aplicar através do family base, pela Gabi, foi aprovado. A ficha ainda nao caiu pra te falar a verdade.
Depois de 5 anos e meio, quase 6 anos lutando, uma RFE, 1 withdraw, 2 RFEs, uma NOID e agora o approval.
To be honest I can’t really explain what I’m feeling.
Esse país que eu amo, mais uma vez abre as portas pra mim, dessa vez de forma definitiva, através de vc e da sua equipe, Green Card garantido.
Eu desafio qualquer advogado nessa america debater o assunto imigracao com vc. Desafio os “bobo alegre” a provar quem conhece de imigracao mais que vc.
Quando chegou essa Noid, Gabi queria responder e eu queria withdraw mais uma vez… Ela te pergunta e vc manda pra ela: RESPONDE.
Calei a boca e respondemos. Estou aqui para servir como testemunha e mais uma prova do Leo e da Hayman. Meu agradecimento especial para a Leila que deu o sangue e suor nisso.
God bless you.
God bless America 🇺🇸.

Let me first say that Mr. Lopez treated my case as if it were his own personal fight. He was super attentive to my concerns and diligent about resolving them. Mr. Lopez's team was fully involved throughout the entire ordeal. His knowledge concerning family law is impressive and I never felt alone even when things were kind of shaky. Mr. Lopez got me the results I wanted and even did some work on my case that he did not charge me for. I wish he did more than family law. I can use a Mr. Lopez in everyday life for advice. :) Thanks again Carlos!!! You have my respect and gratitude forever!

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.

- Retaliation for reporting harassment: If you've reported harassment to your employer and are facing retaliation such as demotion, termination, or other adverse actions, a lawyer can help protect your rights.
- Failure of employer to address complaints: If your employer does not take appropriate action after you've reported harassment, a lawyer can advise on how to escalate the matter legally.
- Constructive dismissal: If the harassment is so severe that you feel forced to resign, a lawyer can help you pursue a claim for constructive dismissal.
