First the secretary tries giving me legal advice, then I till her she's not an attorney nor a judge. Then after she hangs up, I call back and Mary answers and hangs up.

She is incredibly knowledgeable and kind. I paid her nothing and she told me everything I needed to know. This listing didn't show she has over 20 years experience under her belt. And I bet it's Ferragamo.... lol

I’ve been calling attorneys all day and have hit an absolute dead end!! Even though I didn’t end up using their services, Sue went out of her way to help me find different options that I didn’t know were available. I was very clueless, but Sue was so kind, patient, professional, and answered every question I had. Thank you Sue!!!

I've spoke to many lawyers and these people are the rudest lawyers I've ever dealt with. They don't care about their clients AT ALL, I don't know why these people are in still business. Mary Chapman won't even bother having consultations over the phone because she "doesn't want to speak with strangers". DO NOT bother calling these crooks unless you want to waste your time and money. There are more lawyers out there who actually care about their clients.

Listen if I'm paying 200 an hour. I'm expecting to hear good legal advice. She failed I had more knowledge of the things in my case and how incompetent she tried to make my case look to me
Don't waste your money. My suggestion is do your research and if you mess up someway with your claim don't give up. Companies are misleading, coercing, intimidating people to trap them. The employer is the one not to trust and colleagues will turn on you of the company backs them

As I'm not surprised from that law firm above. After I paid $200 U.S dollar cash. She read the write up, termination letter, the letter the Venetian hotel and casino wrote which said in the letter that, I was terminated based on statements written against me by team members, intimidating and threatening including the other documents I have.
She looked at me and said, You were mad at management instead of keeping your mouth shut. Because, your employer is " At- Will" and " Right to work and she said, it's there right to fired you and you do not have any right whatsoever in any court system including telling me you don't know the laws.
Yes. I do not know the laws and here is the truth of what I'm going through. No matter how much I pay the lawyer, I will never find a lawyer or win. Because, it's a forced Arbitration clauses. Therefore, any investigation will not be fair and honestinvestigation.
Now, you may not agree with me. But, it's from my experience. When it's come to Employment benefits and discrimination matters in the workplace as long as Congress are not doing anything about a forced Arbitration clauses.
The Lawyers and court systems are controlled by a forced Arbitration clauses. Not to talk much.
A forced Arbitration clauses are hidden in the fine print of " take- it or- leave- it" agreements. These clauses deprive people of their right to seek justice in court before an impartial judge or jury. They are ubiquitous in employment contracts, and may be buried in job applications, the fine print of employee handbooks, or buried in a company's updated policies, only available online via the corporate's intranet.
Corporations that place forced Arbitration clauses in their standard contracts with private-sector non-union employees shield themselves from accountability for illegal practices and other wrongdoing. The contacts typically designate:
.Who will serve as the Arbitration provider. The Arbitration provider all too often relies on the company for repeat business and therefore has a financial incentive to rule in favor of the company;
.The Arbitration rules. Typically, the rules by which Arbitration is conducted provide none of the legal safeguards that protect individuals who use the courts, including their ability to obtain key evidence necessary to prove one's case;
.The State in which the Arbitration is to occur, which is always at the company's convenience, not the harmed individual who may have to travel far to get there, and
. The payment terms, which might include exorbitant filing fees, as well as continuous fees for procedures such as motions and written findings, and " loser pays" rules that are prohibitive for many individuals.
The proceedings are secret and final with few rights to Appeal. Those forced into arbitration clauses are less likely to win, receive smaller awards, and are Otherwise severely disadvantaged. 1
Arbitration clauses are contained in non-negotiable contracts, employees are presented with a legal fiction that they have a " choice " when signing away their rights.
Forced Arbitration clauses are everywhere and are not voluntary.
Forced Arbitration clauses allow corporations and employers to evade accountability for illegal misconduct. Congress aware of it and do nothing.
Forced Arbitration is a system that was intentionally developed by corporate America to avoid accountability and circumvent laws that were enacted to protect working people.
That's the facts and the reality.

Mary was very helpful in evaluating my case, she gave me the best case scenario and worst, she gave me straight talk. She was helpful in explaining things and the legal process. She spent an hour and 15 minutes with me. I appreciated that she was not trying to sell me her legal services or talking up my case which many lawyers do. The consult was $200.00, I think it was worth it, to help me understand if I need to spend thousands of dollars pursuing my former employer. Would recommend!
