From our very first consultation, Ed was attentive, knowledgeable, and took the time to thoroughly understand my case. If you’re looking for a lawyer who is professional, compassionate, and dedicated to your best interests, I highly recommend Ed. I’m grateful for his help!

I was in need of a personal injury attorney, and came across attorney Michael Wak’s page…I am beyond glad I did! To begin, his assistant Susan is very pleasant and friendly. Attorney Waks is very direct and personable, and I appreciate him calling and checking in on me during the process. I am well pleased with my offer, and the experience I have had with this office. I pray I never have another accident, but if I do, I will 10/10 return and recommend him to anyone! Thank you !!!

Conor represented me in two separate cases, an employment issue and a car accident case. In both cases, he always kept me updated on the status of the case, and tried to minimize the impact on me that comes with filing a lawsuit. He was aggressive, caring, and knew the law. I would highly recommend Conor to anyone looking for an attorney to represent them in employment or car accident case

Seth was communicative and clear, he always made me feel comfortable with the progression of my case and "broke it down" so I didn't feel like any lawyer-ese was too dense. The most difficult part was waiting for dates to come due to COVID delays, but Seth and his team made it pretty painless. The deposition was much easier than I prepared myself for it to be (due in part to Seth's pre-depo explanation and info sharing). The final result was a great one, and I was very glad to have everything behind me. At no point did Seth lose sight of our goals, and he made me feel like I had a voice in my own case - not only that but going up against a global brand felt easy with him at my side. I would recommend Seth to anyone who needs assitance in this type of personal injury case.

Philip Hamilton is a great lawyer who genuinely cares about his clients. I had a family court case that was a custody battle between my deceased wife's brother and I. At the time my health was really bad. I was suffering from heart disease and some other acute health issues that resulted in getting surgery. I had been out of work and was on leave but my pay wasnt the same. Attorney Hamilton assured me that he could help and he did just that. He just charged me for court filings and told me to just concentrate on getting better. He worked out all the paperwork in court and diligently assisted me all the way to an agreement and now my children are in a great place to were I co parent with their uncle. I constantly recommend him as my lawyer..

Marisa is amazing! She is extremely intelligent and knows the law very very well. Besides being very intelligent, Marisa is very "human" and have compassion and understand the emotional distress and damage I went through with my unlawful termination case. She walked me through everything and didn't act like a cold attorney that only wanted money. She really cared about what happened and really made the stressful process much more bearable. Make no mistake, don't take her kindheartedness for weakness. Marisa was super TOUGH when it came to defending me and attacking the other side. I am so grateful that she was on my side of the table. Without her I really would not have proceeded with the case. It's stressful and Marisa understood that and really guided me well. Needless to say, I was very satisfied with everything. If you want someone that's kind and understanding to you, but really beat the other side mercilessly, then I really recommend Marisa! She's smart and without her, I really didn't know what I would have done. Job well done Marisa and THANK YOU so much for everything!

I hired an employment law firm and filed a lawsuit against a former employer for years of unpaid overtime. Marisa was the associate but became my primary contact. She was very knowledgeable about the law and always answered my emails promptly. She was there for my deposition and mediation. She was a lot of fun to be around. We had some good laughs and was a real person and not intimidating at all. She was patient and understanding especially as things drew to a close and I was a basket of nerves. Well, I won my suit and I'm sorry I won't get to see her anymore. She was an awesome attorney.

When Josh came onto my case, I was an emotional, scared client who had experienced a traumatic & complicated wrongful termination. Not only did he demonstrate an incredible understanding of the law & a tactical supremacy (on more than one occasion, he made the defense absolutely defenseless), he immediately put my mind at ease by explaining why it was important to fight this case. He has a perspective on justice that exceeds monetary compensation and that was something that made me feel really comfortable. Wrongful termination is a traumatic experience, and it was so refreshing to have someone in my corner who wasn't just fighting for a monetary outcome, but truly looking to make a difference in my life and preventing the same thing from happening to someone else. I would recommend Josh to anyone who finds themself in need of an employment lawyer!

Josh was referred to me by another attorney. Essentially my case revolved around a mid-2020 cancel culture event with my employer. This resulted in my wrongful termination along with Josh unpacking a number of other claims as we sifted through my almost four years of employment. My understanding was that the employer, over the years, had mistreated me. Josh knew the law and precedents that tied to the mistreatment. The list of claims was long. At its core, my case was about an employer that irrationally reacted to a troll site post on social media tied to a post from me. While the company had invited everyone to share ideas, because it declared it was open to receiving ideas, I posted a further sharing of conservative ideas. This did not suit the political views of the employer. Not only was I wrongfully terminated, but the employer also defamed me in the process. After almost a year of pre-trial litigation, Josh was able to secure a very good outcome that resulted in an excellent economic settlement and resolution of non-monetary issues. Josh cared about my non-monetary issues and not just the financial settlement. That meant a lot to me As a business executive for 25 years, I understood the unpredictable nature of litigation. Josh and the firm, at EVERY step of the way, navigated the case to its successful conclusion. Thank you, Josh, for everything!!

Mr. Lipinsky, demonstrated excellent analytical skills and experience in the area of law for my particular problem. I was impressed at how quickly he was able to logically process the facts, apply specific experience and relevant labor laws to my particular problem. Faced with the daunting task of having just days to file before the statute of limitations ran out, I was impressed with how quickly he was able to make reasonable judgments and assumptions about my case and file such a compelling complaint and other documents before the deadline. Mr. Lipinsky applied his excellent interpersonal skills to develop a trusting relationship. It’s very difficult to trust others to look out for you specifically when you are going through a battle surrounded by distrust. He understood and conveyed to me the strengths and weakness of my case and worked directly with me to achieve positive results. He involved me in the creation of a resolution without placing his opinions above mine. He patiently educated me through how the litigation process works. He sincerely owned my problem, and encouraged a belief that he would do everything possible to help me succeed. He was willing to learn about my expected goals and outcomes, explaining what he would do for me. During mediation Mr. Lipinsky’s skill as a negotiator was remarkable. Here he consistently demonstrated his ability to make wise decisions, take sensible risks and implement fair solutions when met with challenges. He conveyed wisdom and experience as he managed expectations selectively using leverage to help guide a resolution. Legal fees did not become a barrier to a settlement in my case. He delivered on his promise, I got a fair result, and most importantly I felt good about my outcome. Thank you Mr. Lipinski!

I was the victim of harassment at my place of work, based on my same sex relationship and my status as a gay male. I was taunted, called names, humiliated infront of co-workers by my supervisors and manager. When I told my H.R rep and district H.R they did nothing. The last straw was when my H.R and supervisor started telling the general workforce about my sexual status and if they've ever seen me in any lued acts. That's when I took legal acting against the company. Daren was recommend to me by a friend, so i looked him up and read his profile. I was looking for a lawyer who had experience in labor relations, sexual harassment and harassment based on sexual orientation and he fit the bill. From our first meeting, he made me feel comfortable discussing the full details of what was happening to me at work. He took notes and kept me composed during every meeting we had. He gave me realistic time frames for what was to come moving forward. Standing up to my harassers was not easy but Daren assured me that I was making things better for myself and others. Fast forward several months.... Litigation time. He prepared me about the environment we were about to enter. I was extremely nervous and excited at the same time. I wanted to tell the "Big Brown company" I have worked for and still do what they've done to me and how wrong they were to treat me and many others like me that way. So they had the TEAM of lawyers and the district H.R manger on one side and Daren and I on the other. Daren's words were sharp, clear and to the point. To make a long story short, we came to a very fare settlement. I did not loose any wages and still had my job which I've held for 17 yrs. In the end I left really good for what I've done and I owe it all to Daren, for taking my case, knowing the law and caring for peoples rights in today's society.

Every possibility I suggested, reapplying for a second SSI Case, further research, and carrying out the first SSI Case, he scolded me, calling me a "Loser," and said it was 99.5% of chance of losing at every possibility. He blasphemed during the phone call, and made my hopes of getting Legal Aid for my Disability a lot worse. To the Establishment, everyone else was not rude, and acted professional.

He always worried about the client and not worried about lining his pocket. He works hard to get you taken care of instead of pushing you to the back burner. He doesn't sugarcoat. He cracks the whip when the defendant is trying to prolong your case. Thomas's paralegal was always ready to answer questions or if she didn't have the answer she was fast to get the answer.

I contacted many lawyers for help to obtain my final payment from a previous employer. After waiting a few days without a response, I came across Stevens & Legal and their many good reviews. I appreciated that Robert called me within an hour of my inquiry and that he was very straightforward with myoptions. The case took time, but it was well worth the five-figure settlement Robert negotiated. Robert was friendly, professional, and well-versed in OR employment law.

I have never had to use an attorney prior. I am in southern Oregon and was unable to find an attorney that would take my case so I started venturing out of town and up north. Stevens and Legal had no hesitation in taking on my case. Yes it was a long process but it eventually paid off and if I didn't reach out, I would be in the same boat just without receiving any back wages. I dealt with Robert Wilson. He was informative and prompt to respond and kept me updated through the entire process. If I ever find myself in a similar situation, I won't even speak to any adjuster without first retaining these individuals. Thanks again Robert.

The court room persona, which she embodied at the trial took me by surprise and I was counting my lucky stars for not having to be cross-examined by a skillful, knowledgeable and assertive litigator. Rahul Munshi was my attorney in the preliminary phase, the discovery period and the court trial, a four plus years process which ended in my favor. I highly recommend Laura, Rahul and Stephen, as one of the plaintiffs represented by Console Mattiacci Law because I got the support of the firm on "Team Ruth."

I hired Console Law to represent me in a C.E.P.A. claim. Laura Mattiacci was a part of the team that represented me in court and she did a fantastic job. The trial took place over five days and Ms. Mattiacci was the lead litigator. During this process and the trial period she remained professional, engaged and very supportive of me as her client. My case is in appeal and Console Law is representing that matter as well. I would highly recommend Mrs. Mattiacci and the Console Law team.

After I was wrongfully accused in a noise violation case Laura not only defended me she researched the illegality of the "animal house" law perpetuated by SIC police and other resort areas throughout the country! She was prepared to present her case (a guaranteed W) in NJ Supreme Court. Her legal dynamic was so feared the prosecuting attorney withdrew his charge prior to higher court and I was exonerated.

I hired Wilmer and his team to handle my employment case and we were able to push for a settlement 2 years after the first complaint filed. I was rejected by many many other attorneys at first since my profession is hard to understand by straight forward illustrations. Many other attorneys told me my case will be hard to be comprehended by jury if we go to trial. I went with another 5 star attorney at first and he dropped me after 1 st complaint filed. Wilmer was the 1st attorney who told me he would take my case. After the other attorney dropped me, I went back and asked Wilmer if he would accept me, Wilmer accepted me and he cured the mess ever since. Not only he was experienced and empathetic, he was very smart and learned about my case in a professional way. Even though my final settlement was slightly short compared to my target, I still strongly recommend Wilmer. He was truly kind and truly a fighter against hidden discrimination. I was impressed by his first depo against the defendant, which made the defendant a stupid liar, in a very professional way. I truly appreciate his help. I strongly recommend him as a past client by all my heart

After our initial phone call I felt relieved , focused and confident I found the right Laywer for my case. Stan fought for me when I was unable to fight for myself. Stan’s confidence and strength gave me hope justice would be done...and it was! Stan fights for us and gives a voice to women everywhere!!! I am extremely happy with my outcome.

Before Stan, I had searched or talked to other lawyers and these lawyers kinda talked down to me and made me feel like my case was pointless without hearing my statement. They just assumed. When I came across Stan, he responded immediately and sat and listened to my every word. Made me feel like I was truly valued and that my case wasent something "pointless". He put real effort in my case and kept me updated when need be. And when I needed an answer, he gave it to me straight forward but not harsh where he's talking down to you. Long story short, I won my case because of my lawyer.

Robert Wasserman is a wonderful lawyer, from the first phone call to the last he has never stopped caring and fighting for what was fair for me and my case. At times I would get frustrated (though not at Robert, also being pregnant didn’t help) because there was so much information that needed to be shared and discussed but unfortunately that’s just the process. Robert made that process that much more easier, he was compassionate and caring and never pushy or rude. The results that I achieved with Robert Wasserman as my attorney were far better than I initially had hoped for. I am a very happy customer and I highly recommend Mr. Wasserman to anyone looking for a lawyer. You will not be dissappointed.

Robby Robinson is a very capable, stand-up attorney. He represented me in a long, contentious employee arbitration suit, in which we prevailed. He was thorough, diligent in his research, patient, calm in his demeanor but steadfast in his determination to win the case. His very fair, straightforward and low-key style earned him credibility with the arbitration judge as well as even his adversaries. These cases can be emotional for the claimant, and Robby maintained a positive, confident, professional and calming approach throughout the process. He took the time to make sure that I understood what to expect up front, and explained all the proceedings as we went along. He maintains a lean, but capable team and held up extremely well even when faced with a much larger firm on the other side who always showed up with a few more lawyers than we did. I would not hesitate to recommend Robby Robinson to others seeking representation in employee litigation.

I was so beaten down and depressed from the complex wrongful termination from my work, that it was difficult for me to explain to James what happened to me. But I knew strongly in my heart that it was wrong the way that I was treated by my place of work. So with James kindness and patience, experience, and being knowledgeable and an expert in his field, I felt like I could relax, and that I was safe and protected because I was in good hands, and I could trust him explicitly. My case was very complex and James and his Team were experts with gathering and organizing my information. James explained things clearly to me and I was well prepared for my depositions. He was always available. In his depositions of the defendants, he was able to uncover the discriminating information that helped us favorably. It was awesome and reassuring to see how well respected James is in his field. Seeing how well respected he is helped me realize I had definitely made the right choice. But it is just one of the ways. James is so smart and perceptive and is really the Best at what he does!! I will forever be grateful to James for his caring and expert work. I feel very blessed to have had him for my attorney and I will highly recommend him to others that want the BEST help with Employment Law cases. Very Sincerely Grateful Client

Mr. Gross is a very knowledgeable attorney. I'd say his best qualities are being very honest and ethical, which are unfortunately in rare supply these days. You'll understand when you speak to him. There is straight talk with no hidden agendas, fees and surprises later. My primary needs have been for matters concerning general business and employment issues such as those concerning contract breaches, corporate formation and general agreements and contract review. On the employment side it's everything you'd expect from running a business. Mr. Gross is very timely in getting back to me, another skill which is in rare supply among attorneys (unless they really need something from you.) If you have the opportunity to meet, I would suggest you see for yourself. I'm confident you'll be convinced of the same as myself and felt like saying so here without reservation.

I had reviewed a few employment and labor attorneys/firms online and consulted a couple before being referred to his firm. His firm was recommended by another attorney and having that endorsement made it an easy choice for me. When I am looking for a specialist in a field, I expect that professional to know his/her trade like the back of their hand. James is very knowledgeable and diligent, and meticulous in his approach. He was very quick to grasp the nitty-gritty of my situation. I would have to say that my case was probably a little unusual and it turned out to be more complicated than I had initially foreseen but that did not faze James. He outlined the probable outcomes and developed a course of action. He gave good advice and patiently answered my numerous questions. His negotiation skills are par excellence and I believe that clinched the matter in my favor in the end.

Before deciding to hire Aimee, we had another legal consultation, but we immediately felt at ease with Aimee and moved forward with her. She'll calmly assess the strengths and weaknesses of your case. She'll put you at ease, not in an emotional crutch kind of way, but by bringing her vast experience in employment and contract law to bear on your case. Aimee was reassuring, articulate, knowledgeable, and very committed to developing the absolute best legal arguments for us. She presented many solid legal strategies. She communicated with us throughout our engagement and was super responsive to our questions. Being involved in litigation is terribly stressful, especially for the uninitiated.

A few months ago, my job laid me off without notice. They handed me a 14 page document to read and sign full of legal jargon. Feeling uneasy about signing these papers a friend recommended Aimee to me. Not only did Aimee attend to my needs, but she took the time to go through the document page by page. She explained to be what the job was requesting and negotiated on my behalf for different terms. Not wanting to have any contact with the company Aimee did all communication on my behalf. By the end of the negotiation I received more money than what was originally offered to me. I am not recommending Aimee because she got me more money. I am recommending her because it was clear that my needs were her first priority. She is detailed oriented, trustworthy and caring. Needless to say she is also a phenomenal lawyer.

What a Wrongful Termination Lawyer Can Do for You

A wrongful termination lawyer specializes in representing employees who have been illegally fired or laid off from their jobs. Wrongful termination occurs when an employer violates federal or state laws, employment agreements, or public policy when dismissing an employee. These lawyers help clients understand their rights, evaluate the legality of their termination, and pursue legal action to recover damages such as lost wages, benefits, and emotional distress.

If you believe you have been wrongfully terminated, a lawyer can guide you through the complex legal process, negotiate with your former employer, and advocate on your behalf to achieve a fair resolution.

When Should I Hire a Wrongful Termination Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a wrongful termination lawyer if you have been fired under circumstances that may violate the law. Common reasons include:

  • Discrimination: If you were terminated based on your race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age (40 or older), disability, or genetic information, this may constitute illegal discrimination under federal laws like Title VII of the Civil Rights Act or the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
  • Retaliation: If you were fired for reporting illegal activities, discrimination, harassment, or for participating in an investigation or lawsuit against your employer, this may be illegal retaliation.
  • Violation of Employment Contract: If you have an employment contract that outlines specific terms for termination and your employer breaches these terms, you may have a claim for wrongful termination.
  • Public Policy Violations: If you were terminated for reasons that violate public policy, such as refusing to engage in illegal activities, taking time off for jury duty, or exercising your legal rights (e.g., taking family medical leave), a lawyer can help.
  • Whistleblower Protection: If you were fired after reporting your employer's illegal activities to a government agency (whistleblowing), you may be protected under specific laws.

Hiring a lawyer promptly is crucial, as there are strict deadlines (statutes of limitations) for filing wrongful termination claims.

What Does a Wrongful Termination Lawyer Do?

A wrongful termination lawyer provides various services to help you pursue a claim against your former employer:

  • Case Evaluation: Assess the facts of your termination to determine if your employer violated any laws or breached your employment contract.
  • Legal Advice: Explain your rights under federal and state laws and advise on the best course of action.
  • Filing Claims: Assist in filing a complaint with appropriate government agencies, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or state labor departments, if required before suing.
  • Negotiation: Engage in settlement discussions with your former employer to seek compensation without going to court.
  • Litigation: Represent you in court if a lawsuit is necessary, presenting evidence, questioning witnesses, and making legal arguments to support your case.
  • Documentation and Evidence Gathering: Help collect and organize necessary documents, such as employment contracts, company policies, performance reviews, emails, and witness statements.
  • Protecting Against Retaliation: Advise you on how to handle any retaliation or further adverse actions from your former employer.

How Are Wrongful Termination Lawyers Paid?

Wrongful termination lawyers typically charge for their services in one of the following ways:

  • Contingency Fee: Many work on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if you win or settle your case. Their fee is a percentage of the compensation you receive, usually ranging from 25% to 40%.
  • Hourly Rate: Some lawyers charge an hourly rate, which can range from $200 to $600 or more, depending on experience and location.
  • Retainer Fee: A retainer is an upfront payment against which the lawyer bills their hourly rate. Once the retainer is exhausted, you may need to replenish it.
  • Flat Fee: For specific services, such as reviewing a severance agreement, a lawyer might charge a flat fee.

It's important to discuss payment arrangements during your initial consultation to understand how fees and expenses will be handled.

How Much Does a Wrongful Termination Lawyer Cost?

The cost varies based on the complexity of your case, the lawyer's experience, and the fee arrangement:

  • Hourly Rates: Total costs depend on the number of hours worked. A straightforward case might require 20 hours ($4,000 to $12,000), while complex cases can exceed 100 hours.
  • Additional Expenses: Be aware of other costs such as court filing fees, costs for depositions, expert witness fees, and administrative expenses, which may be billed separately.

Always request a written fee agreement detailing all potential costs.
