The Right Man for the Job

When my concerns were brushed aside by my former employer, Bruce stepped in and immediately made a difference. He took my concerns seriously from day one, helped me understand my options, and got real results quickly. What felt overwhelming and frustrating on my own became manageable with his guidanc...e. Bruce was easy to talk to, honest about the process, and didn’t waste time. I really appreciated how straightforward he was and how hard he worked to bring things to a fair resolution. If you’re dealing with a workplace issue and not being taken seriously, I highly recommend Bruce. He got it done.

Top Tier & Honest !

I dealt with major pregnancy illnesses, pregnancy discrimination, and just unlawful treatment at a prior work establishment. At the time I had no where to turn, until I found Bruce. He is an honest man and cares about his clients. He doesn’t price gouge. He explained the entire process thoroughly and... even helped my family find peace with it too. We are forever grateful for all of his help in this matter!

Attorney Matzkin is professional and effective

Attorney Matzkin was thorough, communicative and was highly effective in attaining a settlement for me in a labor dispute. I highly recommend him for your legal needs.

Discrimination at workplace

It was a great experience working with this attorney. I am happy with the result as many law firms did not even listen and just tell me their prices without consideration of my financial situation. I would recommend attorney Matzkin if you face discrimination at your workplace.

Invaluable assistance with negotiated severance

After a brutal experience with a former employer I turned to Bruce to help me negotiate a better severance package. He was very helpful in explaining the options available to me and was very responsive via email and phone to explain where we were in the process. Ultimately through his efforts I was a...ble to secure a 50% increase on the initial offer. Bruce was worth every penny and I would certainly recommend him!
