Tried to get a phone to call to see if I could hire or see if we would be a good fit. Just wanted to charge $375 for initial consult. I asked if that would go towards retainer and clerk did not know. I was offered email with info that’s generic? Then she said best of luck and have a great day? Not really the type of server I was expecting.
I did not necessarily want to speak with attorney just yet. A paralegal would have been fine. Was willing to sign a retainer so long it was worth pursuing.
Not the best way to sale the firm services.

I've been working with Heather for over 14 years on my very complicated immigration case. She's amazing! This year, I finally got my green card thanks to her hard work.
Heather really knows immigration law, and she always explained things clearly. She was patient and always answered my questions.

Narak filed my case wrongful termination very quickly once hired, he communicated clearly and promptly. Narak helped me get the peace I deserve after a terrible experience at my previous employer.

I highly recommend this law office for anyone needing representation after an accident! I was hit in a car accident and chose this firm to represent me — I couldn't be happier with the results. Stephanie and Angie were incredible from start to finish. They kept me informed, answered my questions quickly, and made the whole process much less stressful. They genuinely cared about my case, and thanks to their hard work and dedication, we won and I received a great settlement. If you're looking for a team that's professional, compassionate, and truly invested in your case, this is the place to go!

I highly recommend the McNally law firm. They provided excellent assistance to my brother and me after we were rear-ended by a pickup truck. Angie was particularly helpful in scheduling our doctor appointments and ensuring we received timely updates via phone and email. Mr. Frank McNally is an ideal attorney, especially when dealing with insurance companies and seeking fair compensation for damages. He personally called to assure us that he was fighting for our best interests, and he certainly delivered. The team at McNally is straightforward and honest, making our experience stress-free.

I was in a car accident in October 2022 and injured my neck and shoulder. I decided to hire Jacob and boy, am I glad I did. He was able to advise me along the way where I should go to handle my pain all while he worked on my case. It is not an overnight process but with Jacob, your interests are always at the top of his mind and he will check in with you throughout your case and give you honest feedback and a plan that will best suit your needs. He cares about what you are dealing with and any injury and pain you are going through and will fight your case for you. I was extremely happy with what he was able to do for my case. It was a better outcome than we had even thought! And it's because he works hard and cares about you! I strongly recommend hiring Jacob for all your law needs.

I cannot be 100% specific in my case as the information is very sensitive. However, I was wrongfully terminated from 2 employers due to racial discrimination and whistleblowing. My case took maybe 2 years to get resolved for one and less than a year for the other to get resolved, but the outcome was better than what I expected. They were both settled and I did not have to go to court which was good. I was prepared to though if we had to go. She did a good job with explaining to me about the process and the pros and cons of each case . Lauren was very good at communicating at all times. She is by far the best lawyer ever. Being a person of color I felt heard and understood. I also knew 100% that she cared about my situation and it wasn’t just about money and that made me very appreciative. People who are greedy tend to not handle things right, but Lauren definitely made me feel like she wanted to do all she could to help me and she did. She deserved every penny and more really! Thank you for everything you did for me. I really appreciate you!

Lauren made everything so calm and comfortable. Having never been in a Law Suit before and the other side could make things very intimidating. Lauren would coach me through everything and when things got tough Lauren got TOUGHER. Every single step of the way she was an instant email reply or phone call away. Not to mention she got us the huge win!

Lauren is a gem in her field. She guided me through every step of the process with ease and is a great explainer. Because of that, I somehow found myself less overwhelmed than I thought I would be.
When you interact and get to know her, you realize that she's doing exactly what she was meant to do in this life time. She is diligent, caring, and calm. She also truly wants to see this world be a better place and works hard to make it so!

I hired Vincent based on good reviews and a referral from a friend. His rate seemed reasonable, so I decided to work with him. Our initial conversation was smooth, although brief, and I felt confident moving forward. I paid the retainer on 8/17, and he promptly filed the initial form on 8/19. When he informed me that papers were served on 8/27 and the respondent had 30 days to respond, I thought things were progressing well.
However, my positive impression quickly faded. I followed up with him on 9/11 and 9/18 without any response. He finally called on 9/19, four hours late, and reassured me that “everything was fine.” When I questioned why he hadn’t filed the proof of service of summons, he brushed it off, saying it wasn’t necessary to file it right away and would handle it later. He advised waiting until mid-October, to which I agreed.
From there, communication became nonexistent. I followed up on 10/14 with no reply and reached out again on 10/24, 10/25, and 10/28—still nothing. Aside from filing the initial paper with the court, he has done absolutely nothing further on my case. When I contacted the courthouse myself, I learned that my case had been left completely unattended, with the court even requesting a status update due to inactivity.
Vincent’s behavior was not only unresponsive but also unprofessional at every turn. Missing scheduled calls, failing to provide updates, and ignoring my questions demonstrated a lack of respect for my time and trust. He even used a personal “gmail.com” email account instead of a professional one, which, looking back, was an early red flag. His entire approach felt more like a one-man show than a legitimate law firm.
Vincent comes off as convincing and charming on the phone (when you can reach him), but if you’re looking for someone who will swiftly take a retainer, make empty promises, and waste your time, he’s your guy. I wasted two months trusting that he was working on my case while, in reality, he had abandoned it. Now I’m forced to dismiss the case he filed and start over—an unfortunate setback given the lengthy court process.
Please beware of Vincent when choosing a lawyer to represent your case. His unprofessionalism, lack of accountability, and disregard for his clients’ time make him a poor choice if you need real legal representation.

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.

I only had an over-the-phone consultation with Edrik, but through that I was able to tell that he's an honest and capable lawyer. Whereas I suspect many lawyers may attempt to collect money from you as soon as possible, Edrik was forthcoming enough to give me sincere advice as to why I should or shouldn't hire a lawyer for my legal claim. I could easily tell from just that encounter that Edrik puts the interests of his clients before the interests of himself and that he's certainly someone worth hiring.

This review is long overdue, but not because I forgot—far from it. It’s because I needed time to truly reflect on what Zack Domb and Devin Rauchwerger did for me, how they changed my life, and how deeply grateful I am for everything they fought for on my behalf.
When I first walked into their office, I was lost. I had no knowledge of the law, no experience dealing with attorneys, and no idea where to begin. My case was complicated, messy, and overwhelming. I felt like I was drowning in uncertainty, unsure of who to trust, unsure if there was even a way forward.
And then I met Zack and Devin.
From the very first conversation, everything changed. They didn’t just take on my case—they took me in. They listened. They cared. They reassured me in a way that felt genuine, personal, and powerful. They didn’t see a problem; they saw a person. They didn’t just talk about my case—they talked about me, my future, my family, my fears, my hopes. They knew that I wasn’t just looking for legal help—I was looking for someone to fight for me. And fight they did.
These men didn’t just represent me—they empowered me. They made it impossible to feel lost in the process because they explained every step, every option, and every possible outcome with patience and clarity. They treated me as if I had gone to law school myself, ensuring I never felt like an outsider in my own fight. My confidence grew stronger every day because I knew—without a doubt—that I had the best of the best standing behind me.
But what truly sets Domb & Rauchwerger apart isn’t just their brilliance in the courtroom. It’s their heart.
I come from a family-oriented background, and to me, family means everything. And that’s exactly what these two men made me feel like—family. From the way they spoke to me, to the way they fought for me, to the way they checked in on me even after my case was over—I wasn’t just another client. I was their brother, their cousin, their nephew. I wasn’t a case number—I was someone who mattered. And even now, if Zack or Devin were to call me, I would pick up without hesitation, because they are more than attorneys to me. They are family.
As for their legal expertise? Unmatched. Unrivaled. Unstoppable. They masterfully dissect every case, anticipate every move, and fight with a level of skill and determination that few attorneys ever achieve. They are relentless in their pursuit of justice, refusing to back down until they’ve done everything in their power to protect and defend their clients.
If I had to do this all over again, if I had to go through this battle a hundred times over—I would choose Zack and Devin every single time. No hesitation. No doubt. Because there is no one else I would trust more with my future.
Because of them, my life has changed for the better, I have hope again, I have a future to look forward to.
They didn’t just fight for me—they fought for the man they saw in me, for the future they believed I deserved, for the second chance they knew I was worthy of. And when the case was over, when their job was technically done, they still checked in on me. That’s the kind of attorneys they are. That’s the kind of men they are.
There isn’t a rating high enough to express how much I support them. There aren’t enough stars to measure how much I appreciate them. If you need attorneys who will fight like warriors, stand by you like brothers, and protect you like family—Domb & Rauchwerger are the only choice.
Zack, Devin—if you’re reading this, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You changed my life, and my son’s life, for the better. I owe you both more than I can ever express in words.
If you’re looking for the best attorneys on the planet, don’t waste another second searching. Call Domb & Rauchwerger. Case closed.

From start to finish, Kyle Todd provided me with great service. I did not know where to start as I never thought I would ever need representation against a former employer. Prior to contacting Kyle Todd, I read the positive reviews from former clients explaining the good experience. From our initial meeting, the firm explained all steps, what the entire process would look like and my role. Every time I had a question or inquired about the status on my case; someone from the office responded back either same day or the next day. I am happy with the outcome of my personal case against my former employer and thank Kyle Todd's s and its additional team members (Miriam, Mariela, Matthew and Rex). If anyone is looking for a knowledgeable Employment Law Attorney; I would definitely recommend Kyle Todd PC.

As a party who has had direct dealings with Mr. Beach, I find it necessary to recount my experiences for the benefit of potential clients, colleagues, and the legal community at large. The very bedrock of our legal system is built on principles of professionalism, respect, and adherence to ethical standards - concepts seemingly foreign to Mr. Beach's practice.
Mr. Beach's neglect for procedural propriety is best illustrated by his indifference to court-set deadlines. For example, in my recent interaction with him, he delayed the submission of a settlement offer until the last possible moment, flaunting the courtesy of promptness, a professional standard expected of attorneys. Such untimeliness not only disrupts the smooth flow of the legal process but also signals a disregard for the time and resources of others involved in the case.
Furthermore, his lack of response to my good-faith settlement offer until the eleventh hour undermines the principles of cooperation and fair negotiation, which are crucial to settlement discussions. His approach suggests an insensitivity to the importance of these discussions, which often serve as a last recourse to avoid trial and thus reduce strain on all parties involved, particularly the court system.
More disappointingly, Mr. Beach's communication style lacked the expected professionalism of an attorney. His interactions were often brusque, dismissive, and lacked the mutual respect due in professional discourse. For an attorney, clear and respectful communication is not just a courtesy, but a professional duty.
Perhaps most importantly, Mr. Beach's actions reflect poorly on the broader legal profession. Attorneys are officers of the court, expected to uphold the dignity and integrity of the legal process. By shirking this responsibility, Mr. Beach not only does a disservice to his clients but also undermines public confidence in our justice system.
In conclusion, potential clients and colleagues should be wary of an attorney who shows such disregard for professionalism and decorum. While every attorney has their style, it is important that respect for the process and all involved remains paramount. Mr. Beach's conduct stands as an example of how not to behave in our noble profession, and I can only hope that it serves as a reminder to us all of the high standards to which we should aspire.
While this review is firm, it is written in hopes of encouraging Mr. Beach to take a more respectful and professional approach in the future. The legal community and its clients would be better served if he does.

I retained the services of Esperanza Anderson on June 1, 2023, expecting professional legal support. When I explained my case to her, she was excited to take it and sold me on trusting her.
However, my experience was extremely disappointing, especially because she had seemed so trustworthy at first. Ms. Anderson displayed a blatant lack of communication throughout the process, which left me feeling stranded and frustrated. She said she preferred text over calls but then rarely responded, and then completely stopped responding out of nowhere. I was strung along with no substantial progress on my case, nor was I updated on any developments. Despite my attempts to reach out to her or her office and seek clarifications, my concerns were not addressed.
The pinnacle of my disappointment came when our retainer was terminated unceremoniously without any explanation from Ms. Anderson. This not only disrupted my legal proceedings but also cost me time and resources in finding a new attorney. I felt disregarded and disrespected as a client.
I would not recommend Ms. Anderson's services to anyone in need of legal assistance.

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.
