Jamie was amazing. During the time I worked with her she explained each step in the case and made sure I understood everything. She was great at responding to me and presented the pros and cons for my lawsuit and this allowed me to make an educated and wise decisions. She was extremely knowledgable about the laws and processes throughout my case. She was able to negotiate a settlement I was comfortable with and I think she did a terrific job in representing me. I highly recommend her!

Jamie is an incredibly practical, thoughtful, non-nonsense lawyer. She is a great counselor and strategic thinker. And is unflappable. Given her line of business (employment law), being unflappable is really important! I have referred her to 3 other people already, she is an amazing asset.

Jamie was recommended to me by a trusted peer to assist me in a difficult employment situation. From consultation, through the engagement to post-resolution, Jamie was prompt, professional, efficient and most critically, patient, candid and reassuring to me and handled opposing counsel with incredible courtesy. When we need lawyers, we are often in times of crisis and having counsel that takes the time to calmly explain things, provide options, and understand you and your situation in such detail is what differentiates lawyers who can get the job done from those who you come to realize were essential to helping you survive and even thrive in times of transition, change and crisis. Jamie is the dependable, smart and experienced person you want to have on your side if you ever need a lawyer. She will give you options and get the best result that can be gotten for you in your circumstances based on your directions. To work with Jamie was to have a wonderful encounter that came out of an otherwise awful experience.

Ms. Franklin is efficient, trustworthy and professional. Her efforts are much appreciated. She negotiated a excellent severance package for me. Thank you Jamie.

Ms Franklin will approach your case with passion and pride. She has a great understanding of the system and will keep you informed of each step along the way. Her knowledge and composure comes with edge and conviction to do what's best for her clients.

I REALLY FELT COMFORTABLE HAVING JAMIE AS MY ATTORNEY. SHE KEPT ME INFORMED ABOUT EVERY THING THAT WAS GOING WITH MY CASE. I FELT LIKE SHE HAD HER CLIENTS BEST INTEREST.

Ms. Franklin is the rare balance of being pure brilliance and all heart! She is what every good lawyer should be, but sadly isn't, a hero warrior for their client! If I would string every praising adjective together to laud her virtues, they would all fall short. In a perfect world, oh that every attorney had the gifts, talents, integrity, and honesty as Ms. Franklin!

I recommend all minority potential clients to seek other counsel. Ms. Franklin worked for the benefit of the entity I was in litigation with. And did not operate in my best interest. She also intentionally did not perform critical interviews on my behalf, after I repeatedly requested that she did.

I found Jamie after pursuing an exhaustive track record review of numerous employment attorneys in the Chicago area; after seeing her results I was convinced she was the right attorney for my case. She is one of a kind, a true plaintiff's attorney, someone who defends her clients' best interests fiercely, and is not afraid of going the extra-mile to get your day in court. I can not tell you how good it feels to have Jamie in my corner, I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.

I recently filed a lawsuit for the first time in my life, over a contract dispute where a company failed to make good on payments for work I did. I was nervous going into the process, but felt I had no choice. A colleague referred me to Jamie Franklin, and I could not possibly be happier with the results. She listened carefully to my story, followed up immediately, kept in touch frequently, and eventually delivered very satisfactory results. I appreciated how much attention she gave my case, even though it was a relatively small one. She was cordial and professional throughout. Couldn't recommend her more highly.

I called Jamie out of the blue with a last minute request for a non compete document to be drawn up. After properly educating me on various approaches she could take in the write up, she also took extra time to describe how she could add additional clauses to protect me and my company. She quickly drew up this document within 1.5 hours, She followed up with me and thoroughly explained all of the legal jargon, and was very generous with her time. Previously, i had done some extensive shopping and other lawyers expected fees that were 5-6 times as much and expected a week turn around. I would highly recommend Jamie. She is incredibly fair with her time and fees. Moving forward she will be my go to legal consultant for all my company's needs.
