Pinar Araz

As a small business owner who had never encountered employee-related issues before, I recently found myself facing an EEOC complaint from a former employee. The challenges with this individual, ranging from attendance issues to attitude problems and task completion difficulties, led me to make the di...fficult decision to terminate their employment. Despite my efforts to provide various opportunities within the company, the situation did not improve over several months, necessitating the termination. About a month after the termination, I received notice that this former employee had filed a discrimination complaint against me with the EEOC. I was feeling uncertain about how to navigate this legal challenge, and a friend recommended Pinar as a skilled employment lawyer. From our first meeting, it became evident that I had found a lawyer I could trust. Pinar guided me through the steps of the EEOC complaint process, conducted a prompt and thorough investigation to find out what led to the termination, and crafted an exceptional position statement in response to his allegations. While we have not received EEOC’s decision yet, I am confident that it will be a favorable one thanks to Pinar's diligence and the quality of our position statement. If you find yourself in need of legal representation in employment matters, Pinar is the attorney you can trust to advocate on your behalf effectively.
