Highly recommended

The way law should work! Employment matters that can be complex and time consuming, especially involving older workers, were streamlined and timely concluded with experience and skills rendering the Employer few options but to settle the matter. Great work knowing how hard to push. Highly recommen...ded!

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!

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.

Clinician

I met Bruce the day I got fired from my position as clinician at a drug treatment center. I was in the process of going on FMLA from my job due to the loss of my son. At that time myself and my coworker who had the same duties were out on performance plans. Due to our high caseload fulfilling the... plan was impossible, so I decided I needed to take a step back and go out for a while. I told my supervisor at supervision that I was going out on a Wednesday and on that following Friday I was fired and she used the plan as an excuse. I met Bruce at an event that Friday night and told him what transpired. He contacted me on Monday and took my case. I was fired in May and received compensation by August. Bruce was very available for any questions or concerns about the process. I have recommended him to other friends that are dealing with some of the same issues and have had nothing, but positive feedback from them. I highly recommend his service to anyone dealing with an employment issue. Thank you.

Excellent legal advocate

Attorney Matzkin helped me in a time of need. Bruce Matzkin represented me when I was laid off from my job. I was concerned it was because of my age, as all my reviews and feedback indicated I was exceeding expectations. Attorney Matzkin explained my rights and helped me through the separation... process. He’s was very personable, compassionate and most importantly effective. Bruce delivered an outcome that was very important to my career transition. I strongly recommend Bruce Matzkin if you have questions or concerns about your workplace and any type of discrimination.
