Posted by anonymous | August 22, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

Competent and Compassionate

The firm provides an excellent service representing small individuals in the cases of wrongful termination. I had a long career with one big corporation but was suddenly cut this April for the cause of "new organization agenda" that was never explained to me. Rudolph (Rudy) Belson was assigned to my ...case. He was not just a good lawyer who knows how to negotiate for top dollars. In my case, he got us 50% above the initial offer. He was also sympathetic to his clients. I was devastated at the beginning of this painful transition and rambled a lot to anyone who would listen. He patiently pulled me out of the frustration to focus on what really matters: severity packages and terms. With his help, the transition was quick and smooth. I have now moved on with a new chapter of life. I am grateful for the way Rudy guided me through and would recommend him (and the law firm) to anyone in a similar unpleasant situation.

Excellent Help For Any Employment Claim

I highly recommend this law firm. As a lawyer myself, I appreciated Alex Granovsky's wealth of knowledge and thoughtful, practical advice in dealing with a relative's wrongful termination claim. Working with him was a bright spot in an otherwise difficult time. I would hire him again in a heartbeat t...o deal with any employment issue.

Composing a Response to a Written Warning Letter - Employee with Disability and Reasonable Accommodation

I was referred to Mr. Granovsky by another top employment/disability rights attorney who helped me last year but was too busy right now. After emailing him, Mr. Granovsky called me back within a very short time. I was seeking legal review of a written response to an unjust, nonfactual warning letter ...I received at my place of employment. I have been employed with the organization between 10-20 years, and have always had only excellent performance evaluations. Then my boss resigned about a year ago, and I have been isolated, unsupported and the recipient of hostile behavior from admin since that time. I also declared a disability a year ago, have a reasonable accommodation, and recently had to take some FMLA leave. Mr. Gravonsky was kind, reassuring and provided excellent consultation and advice on the phone, and suggested I do not need to incur the expense of a lawyer at this time. I really really appreciate this, and will be contacting him in the future, if I am terminated or need some other employment counsel.

Pragmatic, practical, very responsive

Alex has been of a great support to me in the immediate aftermath of a wrongful termination wherein the ER was also attempting to sneakily walk away from the contractual severance agreement I signed with them. His pondered suggestions helped me manage the situation the best, thereby preventing me fro...m possibly ending up make silly mistakes.

Available, Helpful, and Honest

I had a VERY positive experience. My favorite thing about having Alexander Granovsky, as my lawyer was his excellent communication skills and the fact that it was very easy to get in touch with him. He went above and beyond in responding to any questions and concerns I had and talked me through the p...rocess, making sure that I understood everything that was going on in my case and that I was comfortable with every step of the process. After being wrongfully terminated from my job (which I had moved across the country for), I felt like I was drowning in trying to figure out what rights I had and what my next step should be. Alexander Granovsky was able to talk me through my rights, what action I could take and what I could/couldn't reasonably expect in a way that was easy for me to understand. He was even available to me on weekends, which I felt was really going above and beyond. Ultimately, he helped me to be successful in my case and to move on from what had been a bad situation with my previous employer. While I hope that I am never in the situation I had been in with any place of employment again, I would definitely contact Mr. Granovsky if the situation were to occur. He was both extremely competent but also approachable and easy to contact and I would highly recommend him as a lawyer.
