Unemployment claims issues

Carolyn Hunt was awesome to work with on my unemployment issue. First call we spoke briefly about my non payments. Set up an appointment to consult by phone to help resolve my issue. It took very little time to establish a plan and send off a strong email. Heard back from unemployment 2 days later wi...th issue resolve and funds sent. Carolyn was great and knowing who to reach out to for a quick response. Thank you!

Highly Recommend

Carolyn provided her expertise and guidance on my unemployment appeal. She was there with me every step of the way answering all my questions and concerns. I appreciated her transparent and fair fees. Thanks to her help, the outcome was successful, and I highly recommend her to anyone dealing with wo...rkplace issues.

Incredible Expertise, Friendliness and Availability

I was referred to Workplace Justice Law Group through a top employment law firm that handled a settlement case did not do unemployment hearings. I was unaware that this was such a niche field and how extremely hard it is to find an attorney who is 1) covering this scope 2) available 3) well-versed in... MA DUI law. Carolyn immediately set up a consult, provided a SME perspective on the process, attended my hearing, and was extremely kind from the first email to the ruling. I hope I am never in this predicament again but if I was, she would be my first call. Carolyn worked for the state for 11 years, was a great coach/friend from start to finish, and was diligent in her strategies. We were able to successfully reverse my UI appeal and I received a decision from the state the next day. Thank you, Carolyn, I appreciate it.

Successful prep and hearing!!!

Carolyn was quickly able to listen to my story and highlight what would be important at the hearing. She helped me see what would be relevant at the hearing and that it was ok to bring up personal issues that had a bearing on the case. She was there during the hearing, which gave me confidence, and... greatly relieved my worries. We were successful - thank you so much!

Highly Recommend - a true gem!

Finding yourself in the overwhelming position of needing workplace representation can be daunting. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend contacting Atty. Hunt. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, but her ability to anticipate and address any concerns that you may have helps to ease fears.... Atty. Hunt is quick to reply to emails and very personable - so easy to talk to! Although she hears these cases all of the time, she has the innate ability to view the case through the eyes of her client, who often times have never been in this situation before.
