Mattress Factory National Labor Relations Board Complaint

Megan helped three of my (former) colleagues and me file a complaint with the NLRB regarding retaliation for collective action at the Mattress Factory museum. Megan is an excellent attorney, but she is, even more so, a true advocate for her clients. She provided guidance every step of the way, and wa...s a strong negotiator. She did not let us be taken advantage of or steamrolled and I was able to turn to her when the museum was retaliating against us. I would recommend Megan to anyone seeking justice in a labor or sexual harassment case.

Smooth Experience

I retained Megan Block as legal representation on two separate issues. Megan is tough, direct and has incredible knowledge of employment law. She is an experienced negotiator and wrapped up both cases quickly and efficiently. Megan is truly a champion of taking on big corporations who try to overpo...wer and take advantage of the little guy. She represented me with integrity and professionalism and was always available when I had questions. I would recommend consulting with Megan if you need help! Thanks again Megan...it was a pleasure dealing with you. DP

Posted by Tamra | May 03, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

Mrs. Block was the best lawyer I feel I could have gone with in my case.

Mrs. Block helped me with a case where I was wrongly fired and discriminated against because I am female. I had gone to my employer numerous times for the harassment to stop and ultimately they fired me. There was some sensitive sexual material in this case where I felt more comfortable with a female... than a male. Mrs. Block made me feel very comfortable in a situation that was totally out of my element. She checked on me often. Lead me through each process and did her best to make me feel comfortable. The day of the mediation when I felt myself faltering, I just looked at Mrs. Block and she was always smiling at me reassuringly. She made me feel like I was doing the right thing even in moments I questioned myself. Not only is Mrs. Block very knowledgeable in her field but very compassionate. While no case like this is ever 100% I never at any point in time questioned my lawyers skills or compassion. I walked away feeling at least resolved and with the reassurance I did the right thing. I would recommend Mrs. Block in any situation of her expertise. To me it's important to not just know your case but to reassure your client. Mrs. Block did this 100%. She is a wonderful lawyer and overall person that I highly recommend to anyone. I thank her and her firm for doing the best they could to make my situation right
