Raven Moeslinger

I've had to retain legal professionals several times over the years. I can honestly say that dealing with Raven Moesliger has been the most positive experience. His level of knowledge with regards to MA wage law is second to none. He always has time to answer questions and his communication is exc...ellent. I have never waited more that 1 hour for a return call. I've even spoken to him on Sundays which is unheard of in the legal field. Raven was able to guide and advise me throughout my case. In the end i am very happy with the result and would recommend him and the Law Offices of Nicholas F Ortiz to anyone that is dealing with violations of MA wage law.

Could not be more satisfied

I could not recommend Marques Lipton more highly as an attorney. I spoke with 3 attorneys prior to Marques all of whom told me that Chapter 7 bankruptcy was not an option for me and that I needed to either avoid bankruptcy all together or file a Chapter 13 and prepare for a very large payment each m...onth. Marques told me that Chapter 7 was in fact an option for me and after a couple of quick and easy meetings and one short visit to court I received a Chapter 7 discharge, was able to get out from under a house that I was far under water on and am now able to start rebuilding my credit and planning for my future. Marques helped me save at least 5 years of my life and again I could not recommend him highly enough to anyone who like myself is in the unfortunate position of being over their head financially.

Very Dissapointed

Mr. Ortiz runs an unprofessional law firm in my opinion. Lawyers come and go at his office like rabbits. I had 3 separate lawyers during my bankruptcy proceedings and the continuity of information was deplorable. Their lack of knowledge about back taxes and how they relate to bankruptcy cost me ...$18000. ! Do not hire these people if you want quality representation.

Excellent Work

I've never had an experience with an employer refusing to pay me my owed wages, but since it happened with my former employer, I needed to contact a lawyer.I contacted the Law Offices of Nicholas Ortiz. After a few phone calls with my information and time for the legal wheels to start turning, I was... given the wages I was owed by my previous employer with the help of Raven Moeslinger. He did a prompt and excellent job in keeping me informed about the whole process and was extremely quick to reply to any messages that I left. I highly recommend Raven and the folks over at the Law Office of Nicholas Ortiz.

Highly recommended!

I reached a point in my life that I had to file chapter 7 bankruptcy....I was expecting the whole process to be worse, but Attorneys Ortiz and O'Donnell made it gi smoothly--including the court meeting which went (thankfully) very smoothly (the same can't be said for many of the other meetings there ...I observed with other lawyers). Attorneys Ortiz an O'Donnell were very prepared, professional and kind. Highly recommended!

Employment and labor lawyer | Jan 04

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known Nick Ortiz to be extremely bright, kind, and zealous in his representation of clients. I have referred cases to Nick and his colleagues at his firm and observed their work and responsiveness to be excellent. Nick envisions and executes his role as a litigator and an advisor in a way that best serves his clients—he does not churn fees or fight for the purpose of fighting. Nor does he suffer fools gladly. He is a thoughtful advisor and a thorough advocate. If you find yourself in the midst of an employment or labor dispute, you would be in very good hands with Attorney Ortiz and his colleagues."

"I've worked on two different cases where Nicholas represented the employee and I represented the employer. The most recent case was a claim for unpaid wages. I find Nicholas to be smart, firm and professional. These attributes work to his client's benefit when negotiating a dispute. I fully endorse him."
