Employment Dispute

I contacted Jonathan based on a friend's recommendation. He responded to my emails and phone calls right away. He was extremely direct and and knowledgeable. He didn't think I had much of a case but did give me good advise. I would contact him again in the future if I find myself in another empl...oyment dispute.

Unhelpful for a consultation

I found Mr. Slack through his website, which states he offers free consultations and gave a brief overview of my claim. Mr. Slack then responded asking, if my pay wasn't reduced "what is this claim for?" and "How would I be compensated if there is no money involved?" While both these concerns are com...pletely understandable, I found his attitude to be extremely condescending when the purpose of seeking an attorney was to see if I have a claim and/or if money could be involved, given that I am not an employment attorney. Perhaps Mr. Slack is a good attorney when hired, but from my brief experience while seeking a consultation, I cannot recommend him.

This young attorney did not accept the reality that without ascertainable damages, a matter is best initially handled through opening a dialogue with a supervisor or through Human Resources. Not all matters require outside counsel's involvement. Practice note: Always check spelling before hitting the send button.

One of the WORST in the business

The other one star reviews are 100% accurate. He is a vile human being and is fake nice at first only to turn on you once he thinks your case isn’t worth millions. He pawns you off on junior staffers who are just as incompetent. He expects clients to write their own complaints! I’m not a lawyer! Mess...ed up my entire case and I walked away with nothing.

Didn't handle case properly

Didn't handle case properly. He totally misjudged the situation, which resulted in very poor compensation from an employment termination case.

Some clients have an unrealistic sense of what their case is worth. With a contingency fee arrangement, our interests are aligned with the client's interests. We always try to zealously represent a client to maximize the outcome and achieve the client's goals.

Do not hire - he is incredibly unkind and lacks empathy

He is an awful human being that lacks empathy, kindness, or any virtue of humanity in general. After going through one of the most difficult experiences of my life, he said I wasn’t even worth talking to and spoke to me in an incredibly degrading manner. You can hire him, but I guarantee he doesn’t c...are about you as a human being, only how you hit his pocket book.
