Megan Goddard, Employment and labor Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I fully endorse this lawyer. She is highly effective and knowledgeable.
V. Jonas Urba, Discrimination Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I endorse this lawyer. She's a strong advocate. She enjoys wage and hour litigation and has helped people in need in New York City with wage claims. Her spouse is also an accomplished lawyer. People who truly care about and are committed to their work. We both have experience in other states which I think gives us a different perspective. Yes New York City has plenty of diversity but until a lawyer has lived as well as practiced outside New York it's tough to appreciate how fortunate we all are to be living and practicing law metro New York City. I have no reservations about recommending Penn.
