I came to Mr. Gentry after having been referred to him by some of his peers. Mr. Gentry is a very wise older man, with a great deal of experience. I was charged with a misdemeanor crime, and through his contacts and negotiation, he got me a deal with the DA that was just as good as a dismissal. I would recommend him to anyone.

Its hard to find a good lawyer, I have wasted thousands over the years. Let me tell you why I believe Mr Gentry is the best in town. I had a warrant filed against me for renting a piece of equipment they said i never returned. I called 9 lawyers and they all told me the same thing. That my ONLY OPTION was to go turn myself in at the jail and pay bail($600) and then they could help me once it goes to court. I had a perfectly clean record and couldn't believe it so I kept calling. Mr. Gentry took care of the problem over the phone with minimal effort. Not to mention all the taxpayers dollars he saved by not sending me to court.

Shirazi Law Firm is incredible! I came to them almost a year ago about a sexual harassment case. I was referred by someone who knew them and their skill set well. We got the ball rolling with my case then after a few months I got cold feet, I told them I didn’t want to follow through and they understood. I went back to the place where I was wrongfully harassed because the person was removed from the location but when I came back they treated me very poorly. They were retaliating in many different ways. I got the courage to call Mr. Shirazi again and he said let’s take care of this, no one deserves to be treated this way. He cared about my case and was very sensitive to the subject matter. He is professional and reliable. We continued the lawsuit and I am so happy I did because they made the whole process so easy. Mr Shirazi and his team took everything into their own hands and every few weeks I would get an update of how things were going. He was accessible when I had any questions or concerns and he guided me through the whole thing. He knows what he is doing and he does it well. We settled my case and I wouldn’t have done this with anyone else. They are a great firm!

I called The Nourmand Law Firm about not receiving my meal breaks and not being paid properly. From the minute that I met Mr. Nourmand he made me feel comfortable and explained the process to me. After a year he settled my case as a class action and to date I receive calls from my former co-workers thanking me for standing up for my rights and their rights.

I was looking for an attorney who would help with my pregnancy discrimination claim that I had against my former employer. When I met Mr. Nourmand I knew that he was the right attorney for me. He took the time to listen to me and was very knowledgeable regarding my rights. He made me feel very comfortable and explained the process to me. He always returned my calls and kept me informed as to the status of my case. He beat all my expectations regarding my case. My life has changed thanks to his efforts and I would recommend him to all my friends and family.

I was at a very low point of my life when I got terminated from a very popular and huge financial institution. I was dealing with major health issues combined with my livelihood being taken from me. Upon my first conversation with Chris, I felt an immediate connection. He not only showed an interest in me but listened to the facts of my case. When I met Chris in person at his office, he was very polite and professional. I think what impressed me the most was his sincere interest in me and how I had been treated by this Company. He looked online and shared with me the labor laws pertaining to my case due to a wrongful termination. Chris explained the legalities of which I was entitled to and explained with a lot of detail what could be ahead of me. He shared with me the anticipated window of time that my case could more than likely take. He provided with me the choices I could/would be presented with as time would take over in my case. Chris always handled my office visits professionally and always offered me coffee, water and even something to eat. His office environment was quite comfortable, clean, and orderly. ......I was a 57 woman with health issues when I lost my job. In all honesty, this was not the sort of retirement I looked forward to after 40 years of working. However, I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone, but if some type of similarities are being experienced........Chris Leclerc is the attorney to talk to first!!!!!! You will get a truly honest response to any questions!

We needed an outside lawyer to handle several cases in a rapidly-evolving area of law. We sought out Todd because he was involved in a related appeal at the highest level. His mastery of both substantive issues and procedural rules was unparalleled, and instrumental in formulating our strategy for both trial and appellate levels. He is fast, thorough and determined. An absolute pleasure to work with.

I had the pleasure of working with him on a recent legal matter, and I was very impressed with his skills, knowledge, and professionalism.
Byron always made me feel comfortable and at ease, even though I was going through a very stressful situation. He took the time to understand my needs and concerns, and he made sure to keep me updated on the progress of my case. He also made himself available to answer my questions, no matter how small they were.
Byron was proactive in developing a plan of action for my case, and he was always willing to go the extra mile to get the job done. He was also very creative in his thinking, and he was always looking for ways to improve my chances of success.
I am very grateful for Byron's representation. He helped me to get through a very difficult time, and he ultimately achieved a favorable outcome for my case. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for an experienced and compassionate attorney.

This was my first time contacting a lawyer and I am so happy I found Mr. Menendez. He was very attentive and listed to all of my concerns. He offered many options regarding my situation and even asked to call back if I had any other questions. Mr. Menendez was caring and extremely knowledgeable about labor laws. I was very impressed with his easy to understand explanations. I was left feeling much better about my situation and able to make a sound decision. Thank you Mr. Menenzes!

I hired Daniel for a labor law case after speaking to several attorneys because he came across a knowledgeable, understanding, and professional attorney with experience in the field. I was hoping that my initial assessment was correct and though my case dragged on for a long time due to the court system, I was consistently surprised by his work ethics, always returning calls/email and keeping me in the loop even though I now live 3000 miles away in East Coast.
He handled the case very well, never missed a deadline and very fair with his billing and fee structure.
I really do recommend him as he is an excellent attorney and a good human being.

I was dealing with a difficult and awkward legal issue regarding a former employer. Steve and his team were incredibly helpful, guiding me through the process with expertise and patience. My initial conversation with Steve cemented the fact that he and Nichols Kaster were the best solution, and he did not disappoint. I highly recommend Steve and the Nichols Kaster team for anyone that needs this type of legal assistance.

Steve is that kind of (really good) lawyer you see on television. He's witty, sharp as an X-Acto knife, charismatic, tenacious, and driven to ensure justice and support his clients. He's truly the kind of lawyer anyone would wish to have. He consistently blew me away with how quickly he'd transition from being consoling and explanatory with me to ferociously advocating for me at the drop of a dime. He was pragmatic, honest, genuine, assertive, and considerate--he always made sure to prioritize my own well-being and happiness within the process and it showed through from start to finish. If I ever find myself in need of legal guidance again, he and his team will undoubtedly be my first call.

When I first contacted Gloria’s firm, I was feeling very overwhelmed and stressed. I was ready to begin a legal dispute that I didn't fully understand, and I didn't know what to do. Gloria took the time to listen to my concerns and explain everything to me in a way that I could understand. She also made me feel comfortable and at ease, which was incredibly important to me given the stressful situation I was in.
Gloria is an incredibly skilled and experienced attorney who is also incredibly compassionate and understanding.
Gloria developed a plan of action that was tailored to my specific needs and goals. She also kept me informed of all the legal options available to me, and she helped me to make the best decisions for my case.
Throughout the entire process, Gloria was always professional and supportive. She never made me feel like I was a burden, and she always made me feel like she was fighting for me. She is a powerful woman who is not afraid to stand up for her clients. I felt supported 100% of the time I worked with her.
I am so grateful to Gloria for her help. In the end, Gloria was able to get me the results I wanted. She is a wonderful attorney who I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for legal representation.

Chris Mcjunkin is an extremely intelligent, highly motivated attorney with a laser focus when it comes to Employment Law. He won an extremely complicated case in my favor against a corrupt system. He was brilliant in his arguments before the US Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans resulting in the decision to move forward with the case. He is succinct in his arguments, always getting to the "heart of the matter". You can have confidence in his abilities.

I was involved in a serious accident in the mountains that left me as a paraplegic. I was referred to SGB by a family member and am very thankful to have been represented by them. Tom Breen and Kris Houser fought hard for my rights. They made sure I was informed and understood each step in the complicated process. Their expertise resulted in a substantial settlement for me and my family. They were professional, understanding, and made my family and me feel supported and taken care of at a very difficult time in our lives. This meant a lot to us and I would strongly recommend them.

She can very quickly grasp issues and offer useful concrete advice. She strikes me as hardworking and fearless and no-nonsense. She never put me off. She's unique in this, quite different from other attorneys I've had contact with.

From the moment I hired Mr. Vernon to represent me in an employment related case against a former employer for violations of the minimum wage act he was unbelievably attentive, responsive and eager for justice. Working with Greg I always felt like I wasn't just a client, but that he sincerely cared about my case and was fighting for what he knew was right. Throughout discover Greg took on dozens of extra hours when opposing council attempted to strong arm important documentation out of the court, he was always available to answer any questions, and in the end he helped me negotiate for a settlement far exceeding my expectations.
I cannot stress enough how impressed I am with Mr. Vernon, going into any legal matter is never enjoyable, however with Greg working on your behalf you know your case is in the right persons hands. I have and will always recommend friends, family, or anyone else found in a legal matter to use Mr. Vernons service and I suggest you do the same.

"I am an experienced paramedic, with awards and decorations, with over 20 years of experience. Recently I was terminated from my empowerment through no fault of my own. I had applied for unemployment compensation and was denied. I reached out to Attorney Lasko . After a through and extensive consultation with Attorney Lasko, where he was able to analyze my termination and give me a firm understanding of what my legal rights were as to wrongful termination and unemployment benefits, I retained Attorney Lasko. Attorney Lasko was able to put together an highly effective letter that was sent to my former employer which resulted in my re-employment and the winning of unemployment benefits in the appeal process that covering unemployment benefits for the time I was out of work.. Although it is Attorney Lasko’s policy not to guarantee results, the results he obtained for me through keen insight, quick action, and years of tempered experience as he negotiated with my former employer were beyond any expectation I may have had.
Results speak and Attorney Lasko delivered!
I recommend Attorney Lasko without reservation!

Attorney Lasko was one of three attorneys referred to me by Outten & Golden. I hired Attorney Lasko, because he was prompt and proactive. He helped devise an exit strategy from my former employer, then navigate through the separation, which was done so amicably. Moreover, I was able to successfully secure the maximum severance package allowable from my former employer on the terms that I desired. Overall, it was a positive experience, and I have able to remain on good terms with my former employer. This was a win-win situation. I highly recommend Attorney Lasko.

I met Peter Jasen in 2002 after my first accident at an amusement park. He talked with me at length on what I needed to do and the next day was at my home to see how I was and discuss my case. He helped me through all the medical issues I was going through, was there for some of my appointments and always there by phone to add support during this horrible time.
In 2009 I also had two auto accidents 6 months apart. Both happened in the evening hours and I called Mr. Jasen and got a return response from him immediately. He pointed me in the direction I needed to go to receive the medical help I needed. With these two accidents being more severe he was there often to doctor appointments, check up calls to be updated on my condition and lots of excellent advice along the way. At times I was confused on all that was happening to me and he knew how to handle my stress and guide me.
Mr. Jasen also knew where I should send my truck for the repairs and stayed on top of everything there while I was being taken care of medically and couldn`t. All repairs were done to perfection and I was totally satisfied. I appreciated that Mr. Jasen was there helping and making sure all things were done right for my future driving safety.
I had small issues that I also called him on and he handled and gave me direction . Never once did I ever feel I was a bother to him even though they were little questions I needed to ask.
Mr. Jasen is the type of man that`s 100 % perfessional and truly cares about the people and what`s right for them. He knows the law and stands by his clients who need him. He always calls back in a timely fashion and never cuts you off when talking to you. He is patience but firm and will always be honest about what`s going on with your issue. All of my appointments were kept and on time. Never was any of them post poned or canceled for another date. My issues were addressed and I felt safe with all his help.
Mr. Jasen is a terrific lawyer with a lot of knowledge of the law and I will continue to use him if needed and have recommended him to others which are totally satistfied with his work.
I appreciate Peter Jasen Attorney for everything and all he has done for my family and I. Top notch lawyer and the best at being a caring human being. Settled my cases to my satifaction and never over charged me for anything. In my opinion he was a fair and understanding person/lawyer and someone you can totally trust..
Thank~you,

Let’s be honest... no one wants to need an attorney, ever!
However, if you do, as we did, this is THE only firm to consider on LI. From partners, Rob and Sarah, to junior attorneys, associates and support staff, their services are simply unmatched.
And wowza! There’s even a real human, extremely competent, receptionist that answers the telephone. No push this and speak that and try to muddle thru some silly automated phone system; a consistent personal, caring approach to business at every level.
Rob Valli is thorough, on point and straight forward, mixed with kindness and compassion. Don’t mistake his kindness for weakness, tho! He can be a “bulldog”, if necessary and definitely precisely when needed. make no mistake, he knows his business and gets the job done.
There’s no “sugar coating“ and telling you what you want to hear, refreshing! He, and his associates at every level, provide everything you need and want on your side. Strong communication skills are a must for me and they deliver information clearly and concisely. Always, in a professional and succinct comprehensive manner. They know lay of land on LI and have the skill set to get job done.
Recently, I was asked how I know Rob when referring him, again. I paused... just for a moment and said “...Rob is my friend!”. I suddenly realized I do consider him my friend. I trust him implicitly, he’s kind, thoughtful and adds a true human element. It’s exactly what we all want and need when we unfortunately find we need an attorney. What more would you ask for in a friend!?
I’d use Rob for any and all legal needs and highly recommend him, and his firm, to anyone looking for a complete legal team package. It simply doesn’t get any better.
Don’t look any further, he and his colleagues are it!

Sat down with Cole for a low-fee consultation. His information was invaluable and has helped me tremendously. He was very encouraging and even recommended another lawyer for me to talk to before I hired him outright. I walked away feeling much better about my situation than I did walking in. If you want to talk to someone before taking the next step, I would definitely recommend Stacy Cole.

I was involved in a case with literally hundreds of other plaintiffs. I always felt that Camie was honest and fair in their dealing with me but it was not until after the case ended that I knew just successful the firm was.
I was involved in a case where a local coin seller was running a complex scheme taking orders and payments for products and holding the payments, hedging that he could buy the products cheaper in the future to fulfill the order. This all came to a crashing stop when several people placed large orders and the prices of precious metals skyrocketed making it impossible for him to fill the orders. At this point he also got shut down by the authorities and all his inventory confiscated.
During the whole process Camie kept me informed, made workable payment arrangements for services and continued to be on the cutting edge as the case proceeded.
Of the many people I talked to about this case, I believe the amount I paid for premium representation was among the most affordable Her results were absolutely astounding. My claim in the case received one of the highest payouts and I recouped among the highest percentage of my claim of any of the plaintiffs.
I recommend Camie Wade at the Thompson and Kerby law firm to anyone who is needing professional legal help.

I'm very happy to say that Camie Wade is an excellent lawyer. I was in an accident that had very few witnesses and none that could support my side of the story. To make a long story short, Camie turned the case around in my favor. I would recommend Camie to anybody!

What a Sexual Harassment Lawyer Can Do for You
A sexual harassment lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have experienced unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that affects their employment or creates a hostile work environment. These lawyers help victims understand their rights under federal and state laws, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and guide them through the process of filing complaints, negotiating settlements, or pursuing litigation. They also assist employers in implementing anti-harassment policies, conducting investigations, and defending against claims.
Whether you're an employee facing harassment or an employer seeking to address or prevent harassment claims, a sexual harassment lawyer can provide the legal expertise needed to navigate these sensitive issues.
