Voice of reason

I was emotionally charged with an employment related matter that ultimately resulted in an amicable agreement between the party and me. Ms. Rodriguez was commendably approachable, empathetic and a true client champion all while offering a myriad of options related to course of action to pursue. I wou...ld recommend her for any employment law matters anyone may experience.

I was very happy....

Melissa was referred to me by a friend of mine who is also a customer of Melissa's. My friend was very happy with Melissa and told me I'd be happy too. She was right. Melissa was quick to respond to my request and was very thorough in explaining my situation. In reviewing my paperwork she found a...n error that would have been a huge problem for me. I will not hesitate to reach out to her again or referring someone to her.

Ms. Oliver

I consulted with Ms. Rodriguez about a harassment issue and after talking to her I immediately hired her. She was understanding, she worked hard on my case and stayed in constant contact with me. And was able to get my case resolved quickly I was very satisfied with the results and would definitely ...recommend her.

Winning !

Esquire Melissa Rodriguez initial consultation was calming, reassuring and empowering. However her prompt knowledgeable response upon review of my documents and recordings was the deal maker. I knew then she was the right attourney to handle such a henious case with multiple torts of discrimination,b...ias, retaliation, and theft of wages. Esquire Rodriguez consistently informed me of new developments and checked up on me after I was terminated during the case. I am absolutely satisfied with the results she leveraged against my former employer, I wish you could see my smile. There is justice and her name is Melissa Rodriguez !

Compassionate attorney who really cares not just lip service

Melissa is not only a beautiful person who is compassionate and caring but also an excellent attorney who takes pride in her profession. She’s a breath of fresh air as a minority female who does her job professionally but doesn’t abuse the power in which she’s earned. Too often minority’s give us a b...ad name in that not only do they do a job that lacks professionalism but exhibits abuses of authority. Moreover, we as a people feel we have to do a better job than Caucasian’s yet all too often we don’t know what the job really entails. Melissa doesn’t let these things affect her. She goes head on to do the best job she can and it shows thru. Melissa is the best and I’d recommend her in a heart beat. That goes for her boss Chris as well.
