Amazing Experience
I felt like I was at a complete standstill and I needed someone who was fierce, confident and knowledgeable. Choosing Erica was the best decision I have ever made. Her organization skills, knowledge and caring personality truly made me feel completely comfortable to have her handle my case. I thought this process could possibly take so much longer than 3-4 months, that speaks to how efficient Erica is. I appreciate everything Erica has done for me. I would highly recommend Erica if you need a lawyer with integrity, compassion and knowledgeable in their field. Thank you Erica for everything.

Greatest lawyer
It was a pleasure having met Erica and the other staff at the Arce law Group. Erica proved to have a lot of knowledge with regards to law. At all times she was extremely courteous and very professional. She most definitely helped guide me throughout the entire process. Erica also was very good at communicating with me and made sure to keep me informed with any updates on the case. It was never a problem getting through to Erica because she was always available, let it be from her office or her cellphone! Erica made me feel so comfortable and like I was apart of her family. Thank you to Erica and the Arce Law Group for all.

Results through Intelligent Strategy
I was in a unique situation where I had multiple harassment issues against a very large multi-national company. Erica was proficient, detailed and professional in the handling of my case throughout the entire process. More than that, Erica's confidence and encouragement throughout the case helped keep me focused on the end goal, which was to bring justice to me and others in the company who experienced the same issues. She is very smart, direct and motivated. Above all, she was able to get me the results I was looking for and relatively quickly. I highly recommend her for anyone experiencing workplace harassment issues.

Trustworthy, Responsive and Knowledgeable
I couldn't have asked for a better attorney for my case! Erica knows exactly what she's doing and worked very hard for me. Made me comfortable speaking to her about my case and let the other attorney know she meant business! I would recommend Erica in a heartbeat and would go right back to her without thinking twice if I ever needed to. Thanks for everything!

Consummate Professsional
When I met Erica I was in a vulnerable emotional state having just been fired from my job, for what I believed to be unfair and illegal reasons. I met with Erica in her office and told her my story. Erica listened to me and more importantly, heard me. She agreed that I had been unfairly treated and agreed to take my case. Erica told me to take care of everything else in my life and SHE would take care of this. An overwhelming sense of relief came over me. A huge weight had been lifted. I now had an Advocate.
Over the following months Erica fought for me and kept me posted every step of the way. We made decisions TOGETHER. When all was said and done I was vindicated. The financial settlement was wonderful, but the real victory was the return of my self esteem. I was so emotionally weakened by what had transpired at my job and Erica Shnayder stepped in for me. She fought for me. She gave to me a gift far greater than a financial settlement. She got back for me my self worth. I will always be grateful to her. I will always be indebted to her.

Not your stereotypical lawyer!
From the first phone call, Erica was always very encouraging and realistic about my age discrimination case. She kept me informed of progress on a regular basis, I was very intimidated about pursuing a case against a big company, but Erica was always encouraging, made me feel comfortable and believed in me. She is professional without being stuffy and knowledgeable without the superior air. Erica did a great job for me as a lawyer, i was very satisfied with the outcome of my case. She is also an awesome human being. I would highly recommend her!

My sexual harassment discrimination case was handled with dedication and determination
Very professional, knowledgeable and approachable attorney. I was looking for a lawyer, called her firm over the phone and within a few minutes she understood my situation and encouraged me to pursue my case. She helped me to settle my claim with terms that were very favorable for me. An excellent communicator and a great listener, always called to inform me about the status of my case and returned my calls. It took two years to settle my case and she has always been there when I needed her opinion or recommendation. I highly recommend Erica Shnayder for her honesty, personality and professionalism.
