Highly Recommend Andrea

I had hoped to never need to talk to an employment lawyer but Andrea put my nerves at ease and was very attentive and helpful. All of my questions were answered and all of my needs were met.

She was very reassuring.

I was distrustful of my employer for quite some time and I started looking for a labor attorney just in case I would need one someday. That's when I found Andrea's profile and read the excellent reviews. So I saved her information and sure enough it came in handy. We had a quick consultation and s...he stayed in touch throughout the unemployment dispute between me and my former employer. She even sent me cases to share with the unemployment office and she was very reassuring that I was on the right track. The reassurance alone was worth the consultation fee. Her assistant was also very kind and welcoming. Five stars!

An Attorney Who Cares

I hired Andrea in May, 2012 to handle an age discrimination claim against my former employer. It took around two and a half years but we finally reached a favorable settlement. The most impressive thing about Andrea and her partner, Sharon Lopez, is the fact that they actually care about their client...s and they are not in it for just the money. Andrea works very hard for her clients and is easily accessible when you have questions and concerns, and most importantly she loves what she is doing. I used to kid her that she was a "law nerd" because that is how much she is into what she is doing. If you want an attorney who will work her butt off for you and actually cares about you, then this is the attorney for you. I can't thank her enough.

Better Than a Therapist!

When I went to see Attorney Andrea Farney, I was a nervous wreck from a nightmare employment situation. Meeting with her took away 70% of my stress. She made me feel safe and it was such a relief to have someone protecting me and my rights. She was more than fair with billing, often not charging m...e for emails and short phone calls so we could have open communication. I did not have to worry about what I should tell her about for fear of racking up a large bill. This is so important in an attorney. I have seen details of friends attorney bills where they are charged for every five minute phone call. She also did an amazing job. I was more than satisfied with the outcome. She informed me of money owed to me by my employer which more than covered my attorney costs. I was definitely blessed when a friend referred her to me. If you’re in a nightmare employment situation, skip the xanax and therapists. Hire Andrea!
