Courteous, professional and knowledgeable

I had an excellent experience with Mr. Risman. We had an initial meeting where we reviewed an employment related agreement, which had been presented to me. He explained the various sections of the agreement from both a legal and practical perspective when requested, and in satisfactory detail. W...e worked together on several drafts of the document, both by email and conference call. He then negotiated with the employer and represented me very well. Mr. Risman was courteous and professional in all respects. Throughout the process, I felt that he had my best interests in mind.

helpful legal advice!

I was a client of Mr. Risman. He reviewed a contract for me. He gave great information (he is very knowledgeable), so that I was able to negotiate good terms. He also was very quick turning over my document. Lastly, he answered my follow up questions. I would definitely recommend him.

Great lawyer

After being terminated from my employer when trying to return back to work after a disability I felt lost and didn't even know the right people to call nor the steps I needed to take. Many lawyers rejected my case but Jeffrey Risman was very empathetic and took the time to listen to me and took on my... case. He was always available when I had any questions and always kept me posted on what was going on. He managed to have me reinstated in about two months and a half, and still followed up with me to see how things were even after his job was done. He is a great labor lawyer and I highly recommend him to everyone. ES 7/2/14

Great lawyer

Jeffrey Risman is an excellent attorney. I called his office and he returned my call almost immediately. We scheduled to meet the following day. During that meeting he was very patient with his time and addressed all of questions and concerns and was extremely knowledgeable as it pertained to employm...ent law, employer separation agreements, and severance packages. My issue was resolved favorably and he followed up to ensure that everything had transpired favorably. I highly recommend his services.

You need a great lawyer, Jeffrey Risman is your man.

Jeffrey Risman is an excellent attorney. Caring and compassionate, he will work his hardest to secure the best possible outcome for a case. Rarely do you find such characteristics embodied in one person. From our initial meeting, I knew I made the right choice. Jeffrey listened and gave me the se...nse of urgency to my case that I wanted. In a past issue with a former employee, I used a different law firm, and my experience was terrible as it felt I could never talk to my attorney, and spoke more with legal assistants. In dealing with Risman & Risman, no week passed without Jeffrey personally reaching out to me to provide an update on events occurring on my case. He made me feel more like one of his friends, rather than just feeling like a client. I can whole heartily recommend Risman and Risman Law Offices to any of my friends and family. Their services are truly top notch. Jeffrey, You Rock!!!!
