Brilliant, Knowledgeable, Compassionate

I can't say enough about Hanan, but little over a year ago, my life changed for the worse. I was falsely accused, and charged with pretty serious issues. I searched and interviewed several attorneys, and Hanan was the last appointment that day. I was absolutely devastated at some of the advice I had... received earlier in the day and was expecting to hear more of the same as I waited to meet with Hanan. I explained the accusations to him and he listened with empathy and got right on the phone and started working on my case before I even signed a retainer agreement; and has continued to do just that. He was very understanding and never once made me feel like this was just another case. He made me feel like this was just as important to him as it was to me. This situation have been a life changing event for me and my family. I'm confident that this matter will be resolved soon. I will not trust my life to anyone else but, Hanan and his team. He was exactly what I needed, a fierce, yet compassionate mediator & negotiator.

Improved Severance Package

I found Hanan to be extremely knowledgeable and helpful in guiding me through the separation process from a company where I worked for 12 years. Additionally he was able to gain a 30% increase in my $ severance package plus increasing the length of time that benefits would be available. I don't thi...nk I could have achieved the same result on my own.

Honest, knowledgeable, reassuring and straight forward communication.

Hanan handled an employment law issue for me and did an excellent job. We didn't have much to work with, and Hanan was honest with me about the best approach (Hanan counseled me to avoid litigation as the expense would not be justified). The most important aspect of Hanan's work for me was that Han...an approached my company in the manner we agreed upon: respectfully, cordially, and with the clear intent of coming to a mutually agreeable conclusion. I believe it was this approach that eventually resulted in an improved severance package from my company. Being aggressive or pushy would have most likely resulted in being rebuffed by the company. Hanan was very communicative - as anyone facing legal matters can tell you, having your lawyer check in and let you know that they're awaiting feedback from the other party, that they're working on X and will get back to you by a certain date, etc, is invaluable and certainly puts the mind at ease. Hanan has a great sense of humor and isn't afraid to be himself with his clients - he comes across as very genuine and likeable. For me, this is important as I don't like the wall that some lawyers put up between themselves and their clients. Hanan addresses you as an equal and a partner in the legal matter. I honestly appreciated working with Hanan and would 100% go back to him again for any future employment issues and/or recommend him to friends and family. I'd also like to comment that his staff were very cordial, professional and made sure that everything was scheduled and organized for us. EXCELLENT LAWYER, GOOD PERSON, GREAT EXPERIENCE!!!!!

Hanan Isaacs is the quarterback for my team!

After being wrongfully terminated I turned to Hanan Isaacs and his legal team. He guided me through the legal process and gave me the confidence to fight back. He and his team assisted me with putting my case together and gave me the professional support I needed during the litigation process. I... enjoyed working with Hanan Isaacs and I would not hesitate in recommending him to my family and friends. If you find yourself needing expert legal advice, turn to the law team I trusted with my family, Hanan Isaacs.

very compassionate

While ultimately Mr. Isaacs was unable to help me through no fault of his own but, my personal fiances he responded to me numerous times. I appreciate all the time he took and I respect his ultimate decision. If I could afford he would definelty be my number 1 choice.
