I had the pleasure of working with Nathan and Ariana and they took the time to listen to all the pieces of my issues and fought to get the appropriate solution. I appreciated their proffesionalism throughout our engagement but more importantly, I respected their commitment to ethics. They have a keen understanding of the law and always guided me to making sure we carried ourselves in the most ethical way possible.

Anthony Soto handled my personal injury claim. He got me the policy limits within the first thirty days of negotiating. After getting me the $100,000 policy limits, he then got me an additional $10,000 um policy. Anthony along with his amazing staff worked diligently to get me the settlement that was fair.

I was injured in a car accident. Retained Mr. Soto, and the Law Offices of Jose Fernandez. Mr. Soto, got me the policy limits for both Bodily injury and UM coverages. Mr. Soto was professional, courtesy and extremely aggressive. He obtained a settlement of six figures for me, and helped me when no one else would. His no BS attitude really led me to genuinely trust him, and that trust let me to the settlement I deserved. I would recommend Mr. Soto to anyone that has been injured in a car accident.

David is smart and fearless he will not be bullied! I have been involved with illegal termination defense multiple years. David stands up fights and will not be pushed around. You cannot win all of them but the otherside will know they are in a fight when you hire David to defend your rights! You want him on your team!

I hired Mr Sacks back in 2016 to represent me in a lawsuit against my former employer. If I could go back in time and do it all over again would I hire Mr Sacks? Absolutely not. The first time I spoke with Mr Sacks over the phone I obviously did not answer his question properly. About 2 minutes into the conversation when he asked me a question and I answered it he immediately started yelling at me. He told me that a judge and jury would never accept my answer. This struck me as very odd. I had been talking with Mr Sacks for the very first time for a total of maybe 2 minutes and already he was yelling at me as if I were supposed to know exactly what to say, what to do and how to act ? Wow. I will not tell you what you want to hear about Mr Sacks. I will tell you what you NEED to hear about Mr Sacks. I firmly believe that Mr Sacks had determined the outcome of my case long before the final day of mediation. Many of my questions went unanswered and Mr Sacks would simply say to me "trust me". BIG MISTAKE on my part when I did. The final day of mediation is when I realized that I was intentionally left in the dark by Mr Sacks as far as certain specific details of my case were concerned. The mediator was shocked at certain things that did or did not occur during the entire process and duration of my case. So was I. I feel as if the primary objective of Mr Sacks is to keep his client in the dark and to reveal as little information about important details of the case as possible. This will keep his client uninformed to a certain extent and will also allow Mr Sacks to have full control of the outcome of the case. Not to mention, this will also allow him to do so with little or no resistance from his client at all. If Mr Sacks sends his client to a gun fight armed with a butter knife then usually his client will be backed into a corner and forced to submit with little or no resistance at all. I also feel as if this was not Mr Sacks' first rodeo. The day before mediation Mr Sacks refused to answer specific and very important questions of mine as far as how mediation would actually take place and totally blew me off. Mr Sacks told me that " he had many other clients to deal with that day and would just see me in the morning at mediation." Unbelievable !! It seemed as if both Mr Sacks and opposing counsel were doing nothing more than trying to put on a show for everyone the entire time. Many times during depositions Mr Sacks would try to appear to be angry and would get loud and raise his voice at the opposing attorney that represented my former employer. It also seemed as if opposing counsel would "object to form" or object to many other irrelevant aspects of a question simply to disrupt the flow of the questioning that took place during depositions. As far as I was concerned it was nothing more than "posturing on steroids" that was mixed with nonstop blathering by opposing counsel with the objections that were being made every 20 seconds. Sometimes I felt as if I were watching a low budget reality tv show. It was ridiculous at times as far I was concerned and also a very weak attempt to mislead clients that were involved in the case as well as the mediator. The mediator also seemed to be aggravated with certain aspects of the case along with pertinent details that were conveniently left out or not addressed at all. I learned much more about my case from the mediator during the few unnecessary hours spent during mediation than I did the entire time I spent with Mr Sacks on my case. As I mentioned before, I feel as if the final outcome of my case had been decided behind closed doors and long before mediation even took place. During mediation is when I realized what might have actually taken place the entire time and also determined the final outcome of my case, or left me with an ultimatum as far as I was concerned. Due diligence is golden. Food for thought. John from Jacksonville, Fl

When I found the Sass Law Firm I was experiencing a great deal of emotional pain. I needed an attorney who would listen to me, was professional, had great knowledge about my circumstances, could effectively communicate with me and had the ability to guide me towards the best resolution for my case. Most importantly, I needed someone who would respect my decisions on the progression of my case despite the potential benefits or consequences; whether they were in agreement or not. Ms. Sass has all of those qualities and much more. She and her team are efficient, courteous and exceptionally responsive. Sass Law Firm is not an inexpensive service, but it is an investment in your peace of mind and the procurement of a fierce legal advocate who is championing your cause. Selecting this law firm for a consultation or to litigate your case would be a wise decision. I pray that you choose wisely…I did.

I'm giving 5 stars and haven't even signed a contract yet with them. I have shopped around with my case with multiple other firms, and had offers. However, this firm caught my attention immediately with their fast responses in emails, phone calls with intake, and moving into a conversation with a lawyer within a day or two. Teri and Jesus from the intake process / information collection were amazing. I'm choosing this firm based on their perseverance and care with my unfortunate situation BEFORE being accepted into their family. I know they will do what they can for me better than most other firms already. Thank you for everything you have done so far!

They got in touch about my case quickly which was great, but the intake counselor (as sweet and helpful as she was) did not seem well prepared to discuss my case and the paralegal I spoke to seemed to become adversarial and dismissive through the course of our conversation. She complained about how much time our call had taken and kept laughing as she told me repeatedly that the attorney most likely wouldn't read all of my documentation before making a decision about whether to take my case. I found this behavior shocking and aggressive and declined to continue pursuing representation from this firm

I hired Greg Owens for my Workerman Comp Case; although he was personable; he didn’t do right by me. The Attorney for the Insurance Company talked him into taking out taxes from my Settlement amount; and it wasn’t until after the fact that I learned that Settlements are Tax- Free. So basically; due to Greg Owen’s lack of knowledge; I lost money I should’ve had in my pocket. When I called him to get a response; he told his assistant to tell me to go and hire a CPA? Thanks Greg! I wouldn’t recommend Greg for anytime of Workerman’s Comp or Unemployment case.

I retained Mr. Owens recently and we are only in the beginning stages of my case. In the few weeks we've been working together he has gone above and beyond to respond to my emails and reach out to me with updates. Being in the legal profession myself, you often do not find an extremely responsive attorney that takes their "off the clock" time to respond and reach out. I'm extremely impressed with his responsiveness and compassion. I definitely felt extremely comfortable moving forward with Mr. Owens and I know he'll work hard to advocate for me as he has already done so. I definitely recommend Mr. Owens as you would not be dissatisfied. Nothing is a guarantee; however knowing your attorney is hard at work for you that in itself is a win.

I could not have asked for better representation, Mr. Kanupp quickly understood my situation and the facts of my case. He is extraordinarily well versed in Employment Law, and is passionate about helping people who have suffered unlawful retaliation in his or her employment. Mr. Kanupp is a tireless and compassionate advocate for his client. He submitted all court documents timely and thoroughly, he kept me updated on the process, prepped me for depositions, mediation and counseled me in all aspects of my case. I am most impressed by his ability to direct examine witnesses in deposition. He came well prepared and did a great job. I felt vindicated by the proceedings.

He was very knowledgeable of the legal issues of my case and ferreted out the relevant facts to address and apply towards those issues. I could not have asked for a better advocate working on my behalf. When it came to my hearing, he went in with a "let's get to work" attitude.

I highly recommend Sass Law Firm for any labor and employment claims. The entire team is professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. Yvette recently represented me and was incredibly generous in answering all my questions and thoroughly guiding me through every available option. She is extremely sharp, efficient, and effective, which led to a fair and timely outcome. I also want to highlight the Office Manager, Valarie, who ensures the firm runs smoothly by streamlining communication, paperwork and the entire process.

When I found the Sass Law Firm I was experiencing a great deal of emotional pain. I needed an attorney who would listen to me, was professional, had great knowledge about my circumstances, could effectively communicate with me and had the ability to guide me towards the best resolution for my case. Most importantly, I needed someone who would respect my decisions on the progression of my case despite the potential benefits or consequences; whether they were in agreement or not. Ms. Sass has all of those qualities and much more. She and her team are efficient, courteous and exceptionally responsive. Sass Law Firm is not an inexpensive service, but it is an investment in your peace of mind and the procurement of a fierce legal advocate who is championing your cause. Selecting this law firm for a consultation or to litigate your case would be a wise decision. I pray that you choose wisely…I did.

I was accepted as a client for a discrimination case against a former employer and signed the contract with them in May. I never filed a complaint with the EEOC because I ignorantly assumed that my attorney would be handling that for me. They waited until October, one month past the deadline to file with the EEOC, to notify me that they were dropping me as a client because they aren't licensed to practice in the state that I live in. Absolutely unacceptable!

After doing some initial research, we emailed a recap of what we felt was my husband's law suit. An appointment was set with Attorney Tony Cabassa; who felt my husband had a case. Attorney Cabassa explained the procedures, and gave us his prognosis. We chose to sign the contract and the outcome was as Mr. Cabassa projected. This firm is excellent on return communication; which helps relieve the stress of having to file a lawsuit I would highly recommend.

Working with Kyle and Bruce at Loren & Kean made my experience better having to deal with a lawsuit. With lots of hard work and clear facts against a difficult non paying client, we were able to win judgement. Although a long process, due strictly to the defendant we sued, putting this behind us after almost 2 years feels better. I would have no problem recommending or using Loren & Kean Law again. A professional group and always kept me in the loop without running up unnecessary cost and time. Thank you Kyle, Bruce and staff.

Ware has now represented/advised me on 4 different legal matters, and two of them were not a formal engagement, but just reflective of his hidden compassion, whereas he never asked for a penny for his attentive help to educate my engaged attorney’s that only focused on billing! Ware has responded to messages during the early hours to quell my fears! Or his generosity of his off hours, by taking time on a Sunday, or while vacationing in the keys with limited cell service to address my concerns, that no attorney of his caliber would ever do, especially after 40+ years of private practice! He will try to and states that he keeps the emotions out of his process, and that he cant take an emotional stake in my cases, and he adamantly sticks to the rule of law, but his generosity of his time and help in cases that he has no financial interest in suggests otherwise. I have unfortunately had to engage 8 lawyers over the last 6 years, and his professionalism and his understated genuine hidden nature to protect and nurture his clients is a quality that reveals itself over the years. He genuinely cares to the accuracy and legal adherence to the rule of law and is beyond generous with his time! His assistant “Brittne” is so sweet, compassionate and reflects Wares’s core values.. in my opinion” integrity, honesty, caring compassionate advocate of my rights” I have not been 100% successful in all the matters that was represented for me. But if you want to have an attorney that is so brilliant and detailed and attentive, then Mr Cornell is the only lawyer you should consider. His is unlike any attorney I have ever engaged and if you want representation by the “shark” whereas all other attorneys swim in his pond!

We met regarding a labor case involving my employer and an ongoing Disablity discrimination and retaliatory harassment case. Even though we have not formally filed any charges because of special reasons, he already knows what he has to do to reduce expenses and get the end result we would like to see. He has measured the cons against the pros and gave his opinion based on what he knows about my employer and the type of courts we have here in Florida. My impression is that He is very knowledgeable and a matter of fact which I value in a lawyer. I appreciated his honesty even if it was not information I wants to hear. He offered his expertise opinion on how to deal with the case which was a wait and see after I am fired. Even though I’m not happy with having to continue to be harassed and the hostile working conditions I am being subjected to, I know that he will be the best to represent me because he has a plan in place. Immediately after my consultation, I provided over 700 pages of my evidence to him and with a small consultant fee he reviewed it over several weeks. He then scheduled me a few weeks later to discuss the plan and the pros and cons of my case. He did not charge a second consult fee and advised me of the approximate amount it would cost me to hire him for arbitration. He already knows the direction my case will have and what he needs to do. Based on this I feel he is competent and trustworthy. I am confident that he will deliver when the time comes. If you want to consult with an expert labor attorney please do not hesitate to meet with him and get the opinion of a true specialty attorney.

I met with Ware when he was recommended by a friend. I liked him right away, and I hired him. It was my first time hiring an attorney, and I should have asked him more questions to understand his work style. But I liked him and trusted my friend's recommendation. I would have been happier working with an organized, strategic planner. If I had received a phone call or email every couple of months with an update on my case, that would have been better. Had Ware spelled out the specifics of my financial obligations to him up front instead of sending me seemingly random and sporadic invoices, I would have trusted him more. But what really bothered me is that Ware took away ownership of my case. I told him I wanted to be at all the depositions for my case, but instead he held them without my knowledge. He did not consult with me to learn details that these depositions could have brought to light. I never heard from him after depositions with a summary of what took place. As I see it, this was my case, and Ware was there to help me, but he seemed to think I had little role in it. In the end, the real value of my case was over 200K less than his original estimate. When did he break this news to me? On the morning before the final mediation. It's been two years since my case concluded, and I waited to write this review because I wanted to see if time would soften my perspective. In the past two years, I've gotten to know dozens of attorneys through my current job, and have a clearer picture of attorneys can potentially operate. They can be organized. They can be transparent communicators. They can keep their clients in the loop. But Ware doesn't.

I hired Ayesa and we agreed on a flat fee contested divorce to take me to trial. After approximately 6 months of representation and after taking all of my money, she withdraws. I paid her $8000 in full to take me to trial as per the retainer agreement and she withdraws as she got hammered by opposing counsel. I begged and pleaded with her not to withdraw but she didn't care because she already got paid. Why continue to represent someone when you've already got all their money? Also be aware of her partner, they back each other up no matter how wrong the other one is.

What a Wrongful Termination Lawyer Can Do for You

A wrongful termination lawyer specializes in representing employees who have been illegally fired or laid off from their jobs. Wrongful termination occurs when an employer violates federal or state laws, employment agreements, or public policy when dismissing an employee. These lawyers help clients understand their rights, evaluate the legality of their termination, and pursue legal action to recover damages such as lost wages, benefits, and emotional distress.

If you believe you have been wrongfully terminated, a lawyer can guide you through the complex legal process, negotiate with your former employer, and advocate on your behalf to achieve a fair resolution.

When Should I Hire a Wrongful Termination Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a wrongful termination lawyer if you have been fired under circumstances that may violate the law. Common reasons include:

  • Discrimination: If you were terminated based on your race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age (40 or older), disability, or genetic information, this may constitute illegal discrimination under federal laws like Title VII of the Civil Rights Act or the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
  • Retaliation: If you were fired for reporting illegal activities, discrimination, harassment, or for participating in an investigation or lawsuit against your employer, this may be illegal retaliation.
  • Violation of Employment Contract: If you have an employment contract that outlines specific terms for termination and your employer breaches these terms, you may have a claim for wrongful termination.
  • Public Policy Violations: If you were terminated for reasons that violate public policy, such as refusing to engage in illegal activities, taking time off for jury duty, or exercising your legal rights (e.g., taking family medical leave), a lawyer can help.
  • Whistleblower Protection: If you were fired after reporting your employer's illegal activities to a government agency (whistleblowing), you may be protected under specific laws.

Hiring a lawyer promptly is crucial, as there are strict deadlines (statutes of limitations) for filing wrongful termination claims.

What Does a Wrongful Termination Lawyer Do?

A wrongful termination lawyer provides various services to help you pursue a claim against your former employer:

  • Case Evaluation: Assess the facts of your termination to determine if your employer violated any laws or breached your employment contract.
  • Legal Advice: Explain your rights under federal and state laws and advise on the best course of action.
  • Filing Claims: Assist in filing a complaint with appropriate government agencies, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or state labor departments, if required before suing.
  • Negotiation: Engage in settlement discussions with your former employer to seek compensation without going to court.
  • Litigation: Represent you in court if a lawsuit is necessary, presenting evidence, questioning witnesses, and making legal arguments to support your case.
  • Documentation and Evidence Gathering: Help collect and organize necessary documents, such as employment contracts, company policies, performance reviews, emails, and witness statements.
  • Protecting Against Retaliation: Advise you on how to handle any retaliation or further adverse actions from your former employer.

How Are Wrongful Termination Lawyers Paid?

Wrongful termination lawyers typically charge for their services in one of the following ways:

  • Contingency Fee: Many work on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if you win or settle your case. Their fee is a percentage of the compensation you receive, usually ranging from 25% to 40%.
  • Hourly Rate: Some lawyers charge an hourly rate, which can range from $200 to $600 or more, depending on experience and location.
  • Retainer Fee: A retainer is an upfront payment against which the lawyer bills their hourly rate. Once the retainer is exhausted, you may need to replenish it.
  • Flat Fee: For specific services, such as reviewing a severance agreement, a lawyer might charge a flat fee.

It's important to discuss payment arrangements during your initial consultation to understand how fees and expenses will be handled.

How Much Does a Wrongful Termination Lawyer Cost?

The cost varies based on the complexity of your case, the lawyer's experience, and the fee arrangement:

  • Contingency Fees: If you win or settle, the lawyer's fee will be a percentage of the award. For example, if you settle for $100,000 and the contingency fee is 30%, the lawyer receives $30,000.
  • Hourly Rates: Total costs depend on the number of hours worked. A straightforward case might require 20 hours ($4,000 to $12,000), while complex cases can exceed 100 hours.
  • Additional Expenses: Be aware of other costs such as court filing fees, costs for depositions, expert witness fees, and administrative expenses, which may be billed separately.

Always request a written fee agreement detailing all potential costs.

Top Questions to Ask a Wrongful Termination Lawyer

  1. What is your experience with wrongful termination cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience and a successful track record.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Understand the fee structure and any additional costs.
  3. What is the likely outcome of my case?
    Get an honest assessment of your chances of success and potential compensation.
  4. What is the estimated timeline for resolving my case?
    Know how long the process may take, from filing to settlement or trial.
  5. What steps will you take to build my case?
    Understand the strategy and what will be required from you.
  6. Will my case go to trial, or can it be settled out of court?
    Discuss the possibilities and implications of each option.
  7. How will you keep me informed about my case?
    Ensure there will be regular updates and open communication.

How to Check the Credibility of a Wrongful Termination Lawyer

  • Verify Their License: Check your state's bar association website to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  • Review Their Experience: Look for lawyers who specialize in employment law and have specific experience with wrongful termination cases.
  • Read Client Reviews: Websites like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google Reviews can provide insights into the lawyer's reputation.
  • Ask for References: Reputable lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients.
  • Professional Memberships: Membership in organizations like the National Employment Lawyers Association (NELA) indicates a focus on employment law.
  • Disciplinary Record: Ensure the lawyer has no history of disciplinary actions or complaints.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting:

  • Employment Documents: Bring your employment contract, employee handbook, offer letters, termination letter, and any severance agreements.
  • Performance Records: Include performance reviews, commendations, or any disciplinary actions.
  • Correspondence: Provide emails, texts, or memos related to your termination or any incidents leading up to it.
  • Witness Information: List names and contact information of colleagues who can support your claims.
  • Timeline of Events: Prepare a detailed account of events, including dates and descriptions of incidents.
  • Previous Complaints: If you filed complaints with HR or external agencies, bring copies.
  • Questions: Write down any questions you have about your case or the legal process.

Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your situation effectively and advise you on the best course of action.
