I spoke with Jim this morning he explained I really didn't have a case against my Company I was rail roaded and Terminated on a lie but they did nothing illegal they can do whatever they want ! Sad but he explained everything to me until I understood and then gave me some great advise ! This man gave me over 35 minutes of his time for no charge wasn't in a hurry either he actual set me free from this mess and gave me like I said advise I needed to hear even tho I COULD NOT hire him I strongly recommend him he knows his stuff ! SUPER GRATEFUL TO HIM FOR HIS TIME ! He also showed concern for my bummed feelings he honestly felt bad and understood my mission even tho he didn't have a purpose to start a suit ! But I'm free and can now begin a new journey in my life !

Just got off the phone with James concerning an employment dispute. Was more than impressed with his knowledge of employment law. Very friendly and listens to your concerns.

Attorney Jim Pizl is straight forward, easy to understand, cost efficient, and most importantly, highly effective with respect to the objective in which he is set forth to achieve. Lastly, he doubles as a quasi-psychologist and keeps you positive about the potential outcome all the way through the process - which admittedly - is equally needed. 10 stars for Attorney Jim Pizl who will tackle both the small and the large global firms on your behalf. I would work with him again, if needed, and would refer him to anyone else who has been treated with suspect behavior by an employer. He is responsive, outstanding and effective!

James is one of those few lawyers that actually cares about his clients. Before I even officially hired him, he was the first to reply to me with legal advice. Originally my employer had not paid me two weeks worth of work and I wasn't even sure if this was a case worth pursuing knowing how much legal fees were. Well after contacting James, he let me know that he would take my case on a contingent basis, meaning I wouldn't pay a penny unless he won. He also let me know that what they did was completely illegal and that he was confident that he would win if the case went to court. Long story short we didn't have to go to court. James was so efficent that after just a couple of emails, I ended up recieving the full amount owed to me in less than a week. If ever need any legal help this is your guy. Once you get to know him, you'll know he doesn't just care about the money, but also helping people. Specially those who need it most.

Jim responded incredibly quickly to my question, and offered a free consultation over the weekend less than 24 hours from my initial inquiry. He was attentive in listening to the details of my situation and offered frank, honest and helpful advice, even reviewing my relevant legal documents during that consultation to better assist me. I would not hesitate to hire him if needed or recommend to others A++

Jim listen to my situation, and provided advice. He was empathetic and supportive. He helped me get what I deserved before the court date. He was compassionate and understanding. I would highly recommend him.

I felt that I was wrongfully terminated. I’ve never needed an attorney before and didn’t know the first steps. Someone told me about Avvo. I was so fortunate to find Jim. He spent about an hour during our consultation. He was so helpful and very informative. I hired him and he went to work on my case. He discovered that I hadn’t been paid correctly. I worked on commission and was required to work 10 hour days. There were many days, over the 4 years I worked there, I didn’t get paid minimum wage. Jim discovered I had been cheated out of thousands of dollars. Turns out that the wage violations were a bigger part of my case than the wrongful termination. Jim’s knowledge of employment law is very impressive. His expertise is even more enhanced because he’s a CPA. He’s extremely intelligent and personable as well. He always made me feel like I was his only client. Even though he was very busy, he was always quick to respond to my texts. We went to mediation and my case was settled. I can’t thank him enough. You’re in great hands with Jim handling your case. He truly cares about helping his clients.

I recently worked with Entente Law Firm for an unexpected legal situation involving my LLC. Jim handled my legal matter with the professionalism, expertise and swiftness needed from a good attorney. I had no idea how I would have handled this situation by myself and am very happy that I reached out to Jim and Entente Law Firm for help.

Contacted and retained. Fantastic guy and a big help... Very grateful and feel like I have someone on my team.

I also was very fortunate to have found Jim via search on Avvo! I got unfairly and rudely/suddenly hosed by the rich, arrogant, jerk owner of the small business I was working for. I wasn't sure whether or not a lawyer could help so I did a few searches on Avvo. Jim's name popped up as an employment lawyer and he had great reviews so I reached out to him. He is very responsive and a great communicator. He took my matter seriously, was upfront/transparent and went to work. And I ended up getting a settlement I was happy with and was more than I was expecting when I initially contacted him. Well done, Jim, thank you! And hopefully I won't need to contact him again. But if I do, I won't hesitate to call on Jim for his help!

I contacted James for a potential age discrimination case. He listened to my side and gave me honest feedback and I decided to go with the package the company was offering. Other lawyers I contacted either didn't return calls or proposed an expensive 1 hour planning session.

I was so very fortunate to have connected with Jim Pizl. We were introduced on the Avvo website. I posted an employment law question on Avvo’s website and Jim responded within 1 hour. He offered a detailed answer and asked a follow-up question, that is what started the relationship. I posted a question about employment law, specifically misclassification of workers – W2 vs. 1099 Independent Contractors. It was determined that I was misclassified. From there he and I partnered on the employment matter. He put so much time and effort in my case and went the extra mile. He is an excellent communicator! Jim responded to emails/calls almost instantly, he is prompt and detailed. During the entire case I felt I was Jim’s only client. He showed great care and attention throughout the process. His expertise of employment law educated me greatly and I always knew what was going on. I thank Jim and am grateful to have had him on my side. I can’t thank him enough for settling my case. Due to his knowledge in employment law we were successful in reaching a settlement.
