I retained Harriet after hearing multiple times from others how my case could not be won. Harriet agreed that it was a difficult case but decided to represent me with my wrongful discharge tort claim from the State of Washington. To make matters more complicated, I was a probationary employee with no rights. I had only worked 4 months for my employer before they separated me from employment. I was impressed with the letters she wrote the opposing party arguing discrimination. They were, in essence, legal memoranda with the law cited and legal authority provided. At first, I thought that all I could get was the termination or separation removed from my file in exchange for a letter of resignation written by me to be placed in my personnel file. The bottom line was that due to Harriet's help, not only did they agree to change the separation to a resignation, they agreed to give me monetary compensation, provide neutral references if asked and to refer all future calls about my separation to the personnel office. All that after only 4 months of employment! Harriet literally worked magic!

Harriet was very effective for me. Not only did she help in a personnel hearing. She was very good at gathering information, researching, and advising me during the process. She pointed out the ups and downs of going into a hearing. It ended up going much as she suspected. The personnel hearing resulted in a favorable outcome. I was very satisfied with Harriet's efforts and would give her "high marks" regardless of the outcome.

I was on paid administrative leave for 10 months before hiring Harriet. My situation was very complex with hundreds of documents and emails showing what had happened. Harriet was able get her head around the situation in a short amount of time. Harriet understood school budgets and school laws. Within three weeks of hiring Harriet, she wrote a 16 page letter to the district and their attorney which convinced the district that they didn’t have a case. Harriet worked tirelessly on my behalf. I would get emails from her at all hours of the night and day. she was always available to answer my questions. She ultimately brokered an agreement that allowed me to return to work. Harriet isn’t much for pleasantries or small talk. If you are looking for an attorney that is going to counsel you and make you feel good, she probably isn’t for you. If you are looking for someone who knows the law and knows how to deal with employers and their attorneys, she is a great choice. I would wholeheartedly recommend Harriet.

Harriet represented me against an employer that normally you would just walk away from and give up. She gave me hope and I believed in her. She treats her clients as if she is fighting for her own family. It has taken me sometime to say, Thank you Harriet! I'm glad I found this site. I would recommend Harriet, if you need an excellent Employment and Labor Attorney. Follow her advice.

After an initial phone call and meeting to allow me to describe the discriminatory and hostile work environment I was in, Harriet immediately contacted my employer outlining the merits of our case. Harriet very successfully negotiated a most satisfactory result. Harriet knows the law; she knows how to negotiate; and she knows what is realistically attainable. I am extremely happy with Harriet's work, and I highly recommend her.

Harriet has an in-depth understanding of the law! She is consistently in contact with any updates. She is a fighter for her clients! She practices in good faith. She is very thorough, detailed, and organized. I was pleased with the outcome.

Harriett was well versed in the laws pertaining to my situation. She remained in constant contact with me and explained the process at each step. I was pleased with the outcome.

After a few phone calls with Harriet we met in person and she took my workplace harassment and discrimination case. With a highly impacting letter to my former employer sighting many points of wrong doing and backing them up with law the point was made to them. This matter settled out of court and was timely and prompt. This was just the right amount of help I needed to feel my previous employer knew they did wrong.

I had a difficult time finding a lawyer who would take on my case for wrongful discharge / hostile work environment. Most lawyers thought it was too complex. After listening to my case, Ms. Strasberg wrote a letter to my previous employer to which the case was settled. She was prepared to represent me if I decided to decline the offer made. I was satisfied with the settlement, so it was settled quickly. I truly appreciated Ms. Strasberg's expertise in handling my case as I was getting nowhere with my previous employer on my own. She also brought up a couple of other reasons as to why it was a wrongful discharge that I was unaware of. I would highly recommend Ms. Strasberg and truly appreciated her willingness to accept my case.

Excellent representation. Harriet Strasberg can be relied on to do the best job possible. I found her to be proactive, professional, and dedicated while working on my case. Harriet was in constant contact with me and highly involved in understanding the complexities resulting in a very good outcome.

I had a complication employment case. Harriet was great in researching and recommending possible courses of action. She's very easy to work with and always available to answer questions.

Harriet Strasberg is an outstanding attorney. I was involved in a case that took more that 2 and 1/2 years to resolve. Harriet was in constant contact with me. Her explanations of the law and particular precedings were easy to understand. I had the utmost confidence in her and her skills. Harriet, as my civil attorney, kept in constant contact with my crimminal attorney. Harriet was available for meetings, and would often travel more than 2 hours to meet with me. Throughout my ordeal, Harriet got to know me as a person, and the things that I stood for. She believed in me, and I in her. The case was resolved, and I ultimately previaled. I would recommend her to anyone seeking legal advice and/or representation.
