Great representation. Grateful for the work of the attorneys.

Very satistied with they attorneys' work. It was evident that they put time and effort into My case.

Thankful for the effort that the attorneys put into my case.

I had a great experience from beginning to end! Mr. Melehy gave me advice every step of the way which led me to mediation/settlement! He even saved me from spending money during a consultation or two. I would highly recommend working with this law firm for employment problems.

This law firm charged me an initial retainer fee of $7,500 to legally retain my EEO discrimination case, then proceeded to request information that could be used as an additional claim (to be charged extra money for) later in the case. Since I did not want to provide the information, upfront, to prevent the incurrence of more charges (and, it was information that could have been provided as needed, as the case progressed), the lawyer told me he did not trust that I was being totally forthcoming. Long story short, I ended the retainment before I could actually be represented. The lawyer spent less than 2 hours discussing my case with me via email, adding a small amount of verbiage to my complaint form, and placing my employer on notice that he was retained. I disputed the charge and was only refunded $3,750. The last response I received was to give their paralegal a call, to schedule a mutually convenient time to discuss my dissatisfaction with the amount of legal fees. I was given The Fitzpatrick Matrix that lists hourly rates for complex federal litigation legal fees in DC to understand how I was charged, but I don’t know the amount of experience the retained lawyer had in order to get an accurate account of the charges. Still, if the lawyer has 35+ years of experience, $3,750 is more than double what a 35+ years experienced lawyer would charge at a 2023 rate of $807 an hour, for two hours. I do not recall reading that the Matrix’s fees don’t apply to retainer fees. My hopes are for no other person to be scammed by this law firm, especially when they are being discriminated against in the workplace, and can barely afford a lawyer.

I recently had the privilege of working with Michelle Thomas and her team, and she is hands down the best attorney I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Michelle's tenacious advocacy and incredible understanding of the law were evident from the beginning, and she worked tirelessly on my case until we achieved the outcome we were hoping for. But what sets Michelle apart is her deep compassion for her clients. She took the time to listen to my concerns and needs and made me feel like I was her top priority every step of the way. She truly cares about her clients, and it shows in the work that she does. And I can't forget to mention Michelle's top-notch digital platform. It made the entire process so much easier and saved significant fees. I could access all of my case information in one place, and Michelle was always available to answer any questions. I highly recommend Michelle Thomas to anyone needing a family law attorney. She is a true professional who truly cares about her clients, and I am so grateful for her hard work and dedication. Thank you, Michelle and her whole team!

Melehy and Associates is a great firm! i would recommend this firm to anyone that needs help .

I recently hired Michelle Thomas's firm to represent me in a family law matter, and I'm very grateful I did. She and her team represented my interests fully and fairly, and bought us to the resolution we needed without difficulty. They are a model of professionalism as well, and I have to say that this entire process could not have been handled better than it was by M. C. Thomas and Associates. I highly recommend her firm.

If you're looking for an attorney that truly looks out for the little guy, look no further than Melehy & Associates. Mr. & Mrs. Melehy, Mr. Balashov and Emily fought for me at a time when I was unable to fight for myself. They were considerate of my emotional needs and treated me as a person, with decency and respect. I am truly grateful for their help and I would recommend them to anyone that has been mistreated or oppressed.

Excelente servicio, Gracias a los 3 abogados que llevaron mi caso, y al amable y eficiente equipo de trabajo que tienen, Gracias a Dios gane mi caso y los recomiendo mucho.
