Supportive Legal Help When I Needed Clarity the Most

I consulted with Laura during an employment and disability situation and valued her thoughtful guidance. She listened closely, explained the legal issues clearly and practically, and helped me see my options without making me feel stressed or pressured. What stood out most was her ability to break... down employment and benefits issues so they were easy to understand. This helped me make good decisions. Her advice was practical, realistic, and always aimed at helping me get through a tough time with confidence. I’m thankful for her professionalism and insight, and I would recommend her to anyone who needs an employment attorney who is knowledgeable, responsive, and honest.

negotiation of severance agreement

I needed help with an employment issue (negotiating a severance agreement). Laura was extremely responsive and identified a host of issues in the draft document. The changes she made were great and protected me very well. I would work with her again on any employment issue

Excellent

Laura is professional, responsive, and compassionate in what can be a very stressful situation. She offers guidance and solid legal advice. I could not have been more pleased and would recommend Laura Panos to anyone needing an excellent counsel in matters of employment.

I couldn't have asked for better representation

If you are looking for counsel that will take the time to understand YOU, your needs, your wants, and what is in your best interest, look no further. Several years ago, I stumbled across the Laura A. Panos Law Office online when in need of employment law advice. Recently, when I needed very strong an...d capable representation for a personally and professionally upsetting and difficult employment situation, I knew that Laura would be the right representation for me. I cannot say enough good things about Laura and her office. She is incredibly knowledgeable, competent, compassionate, and passionate. It is the combination of all of these traits that I believe makes her so outstanding at what she does. Effective and aggressive representation with a unique perspective -- it is right there on her website. It's that description that brought me to her the first time, what I found to be true and brought me back the second time, and should I ever need her in the future. Laura will help guide you to what YOU need, understanding you as a unique person first and foremost. And, based on what you want, she will fight for you like no else will fight for you. I am thankful for Laura's legal representation. Even more so, perhaps, is the confidence knowing that I had someone truly in my corner when dealing with a very emotional and upsetting employment situation. If you've read this review - look no further. You've found the lawyer you've been looking for.

Tireless advocate! Expert in employment law.

From the first day, Laura has been a tireless advocate. Her knowledge of employment law is exceptional and her genuine desire to help women with employment issues is unparalleled. She is smart, determined, hard working and compassionate. I vetted a lot of attorneys and I am so happy I chose Laura Pa...nos!! She doesn’t stop until the job is done. I can’t recommend her enough.
