Ryan Francis Stephan's Reviews

I met with Ryan after I was wrongfully terminated by my employer after 6 ½ years of loyal service. He was compassionate for my situation, but remained levelheaded throughout the process. He explained my potential claims as well as their strengths and weaknesses – and even uncovered other claims that had not previously been discussed. He kept me informed of the status of the case after each filing and status hearing. His experience and confidence helped my family and me through this difficult time. Leading up to and during our settlement conference, he provided comfort during the stress-filled situation of facing my ex-employer. Last week, he negotiated a favorable settlement on my behalf. While I would never wish to repeat the unpleasant experience of being terminated while 5 months pregnant, I would not hesitate recommending Ryan to anyone seeking an excellent employment attorney!

A friend recommended that I speak with Ryan after an employer treated me very unfairly. I was extremely nervous about getting into any kind of lawsuit, but Ryan answered all of my questions and made me realize that I had nothing to fear since I had a legitimate case. He has been exceptionally kind, understanding and helpful to me at all stages of my suit. He is very knowledgeable and thinks ahead to make sure he is always in control of the situation, and he has done a great job of negotiating a settlement.

Ryan gave me hope during an incredibly hopeless time. He is sincerely interested in helping regular people who are treated unfairly by big employers. I cannot emphasize how wonderful he has been, how helpful in keeping my sanity, and how grateful I am to Ryan for all he has done! I highly, highly recommend Ryan to represent you in an employment suit.

I had serious problems with a rather unethical and bullying employer. Ryan was empathetic and cut through the emotional stress of the situation, brought clarity to the legal issues involved and helped me win a respectable settlement. Obviously with any attorney law is a business, but I did get a sense that Ryan cares about the human dimension to it and he takes a pride in being able to help right a wrong.

Ryan resolved my issue with in 2 weeks. I had attempred to get this matter resolved for 6 months prior to getting Ryan involved.

Ryan took my case when no other attorney would. I had a labor dispute concerning what I felt was a dismissal due to retaliation. Other attorneys told me that my issue was unfortunate, but not a violation. Ryan took my case and assured me that he would work diligently to have my previous employer explain the facts behind my firing and proceed in my best interest. Throughout the case, I was kept informed about every issue. Not only by Ryan, but his staff. I received follow up calls and emails constantly which made me feel as if I was in a partnership.

What I appreciated the most about Ryan is that he gave me options. He would give me an accessment of the case, followed by his reccommendations to proceed, but he made it clear......he would proceed however I wanted to even if I didn't agree with his suggestions.

Because of Ryan's diligence, I was able to keep my home and quality of life.

I had an issue with a previous employer who withheld my last paycheck, unused vacation time and unpaid overtime.

Ryan basically "held my hand" through the entire process. He quickly repsonded to my questions, walked me through the entire process and explained what direction we were heading in order to settle the case.

He is an expert in his field. He settled my case quickly and professionally. The judge was very impressed by him and so was I.

He was able to work everything out and we received a great settlement.

Ryan represented me in an equity dispute with a partner in a real estate venture. My partner was the managing member responsible for all of the day to day buisness for the partnership. I suspected that partnership funds were being diverted by my partner to satisfy unrelated debts and obligations. With Ryan's direction we were able to establish a case that far exceeded my original expectations. The discovery process he implemented included depositions, reviews of various financial records and analyses of tax returns and property records. Ryan was able to access his network of CPA's, property managers and tax experts in establishing my case. He met all of the deadlines, filed all of the appropriate motions and made a number of appearances in court on my behalf. I had two other attorneys who had refused to take my case as they felt it lacked the proof necessary to prevail, but Ryan's diligence, skill and perseverance led to a bigger settlement than originally anticipated.

I have nothing but positive things to say about the Law Office Of Ryan Stephan. My experience was absolutely seamless!!!! I initially contacted Ryan in 2007 due to being fired by my employer while on FMLA leave. At a time that I should be celebrating the birth of my son, I had to deal with post-partum depression, my husband was recently laid off and now I am unemployed. I felt absolutely helpless.

My case was handled is a timely, courteous, compassionate manner. I didn’t feel like a number or case, I felt like a human being. The law office of Ryan Stephan won my case and got me money I needed to get off my feet and provide for my family.
