From the moment I reached out and discussed my employment situation with Rachel, she was understanding, honest, engaged, and extremely knowledgeable as to the state and federal employment laws. My case was complex due to the multiple offenses I endured, including abuse, which I am finally understanding through ongoing physcological therapy. After nearly two decades with the same company and being promoted multiple times throughout the years, I was faced with standing up for what was right or sitting down and turning a blind eye to questionable ethics I witnessed from senior management. I did what was right and stood up. My decision to do this was not easy because I knew this would put me in a unfavorable category as seen from senior management. I became the target for termination/dismissal. Due to the physical and mental hardship I faced on a daily basis, my health declined. Eventually I had to take time off to recover as ordered by my Primary Care Physician. I submitted FMLA paperwork to ensure the security of my employment; however, in the end I was terminated. Rachel was with me step-by-step as I had to recount and present all evidence and information for what was a wrongful termination case. Rachel worked diligently by presenting all information and facts. In the end, it was through her guidance and expertise in employment law that we were able to agree on a very favorable settlement. I highly recommend Rachel Berlin to represent anyone needing a lawyer that specializes in employment law. She's the best in my book! Thanks again Rachel.

I was employed as a contractor and felt I was owed additional wages for overtime hours worked. Rachel Berlin took the case and after reviewing the facts, presented them to my former employer on behalf of myself and others. I was very pleased with the quick resolution and settlement. I would highly recommend Ms. Berlin.

Due to a corporate reorganization with the company my department was eliminated. However, I wanted to secure expert employment legal advice with respect to the terms and conditions in the agreement. During the consultation meeting Rachael was very informative and provided clear direction on the most appropriate steps going forward with matters relating the agreement. With Rachael guidance I was able to obtain additional benefits in the agreement. Rachael comes highly recommended.

I was recently employed in a very caustic work environment which included a verbally abusive and hostile manager with severe anger issues. The manager was subject to frequent violent outbursts and negative physically demonstrative behavior. The manager was in the process of terminating me without cause, which is allowed under Georgia law. He was constantly bullying me and resorted to falsifying records to protect himself. Ms. Berlin did an excellent job representing me. She was successful in creating and filing a separation agreement before the manager could terminate me. The agreement provided me with 5 months salary, a continuation of benefits, and protection from retribution. Ms. Berlin also put together a very strong case to seek very valid additional settlements which I decided not to pursue at the time due to health reasons. She was knowledgeable, professional, and supportive throughout the process.

Ms. Berlin took our case and took the time to explain all of our options and got us a better settlement than any of us thought possible. Her knowledge of labor law was impeccable. I would highly recommend her.
