Unemployment Compensation Appeal Hearing

Mr. Dougherty recently represented me for my Unemployment Compensation Appeal Hearing. I had never been in any kind of court setting before & was VERY nervous. He handled my case very professionally, he answered any & all questions and concerns I had along the way and with his help I had a successfu...l ruling at my hearing. I truly appreciate that he had MY legal rights in focus (and made sure I also understood them) and helped me get a fair chance to tell my side of the story, which I hadn't gotten up till that point. I would highly recommend hiring him to anyone & am thankful for all his help & hard work.

Excellent representation during an uncertain time

Mr Dougherty provided excellent representation for me during my recent unemployment hearing. From my first meeting with him through representation at my hearing he was professional, articulate and displayed a clear understanding of unemployment law and the judicial process. He managed my expectat...ions of the entire process, educated me to my rights under the circumstances and fully represented me at the hearing. He kept me fully informed throughout the entire process and was responsive when I had questions. I appreciated his professionalism, guidance and advocacy for my rights at the hearing. I would not have had the successful outcome I did without his guidance and representation. I strongly recommend Mr. Dougherty for all unemployment law representation.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
