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.

Superb

Andrea took the time to understand my situation and explored all of my options. She explained the legal process for my situation and explained the realities of our case in a way that helped me decide what avenue I wanted to take. She kept me informed throughout the negotiation and I had no doubt th...at she was working diligently on my behalf.

Andrea Farney review

Andrea is the best lawyer that I have ever worked with. She differs from the others in that she truly listens to her clients and is concerned primarily with getting the best solution for them, which is not always the fastest or easiest one. I never felt that she simply wanted to clear her desk of my ...case and move on the the next one. She always responded to my calls and email, usually within 24 hours or less. Andrea is also very fair with her billing. I felt that she was worth every penny that she charged and that she did not try to nickle-and-dime me for every little thing. I have recommended her to my colleagues, who have been very satisfied with her. If you want someone who is sympathetic, knowledgeable, reasonable, professional, and effective, you can do no better than Andrea Farney. Even the bigger firms in town will direct you to her for employment law.

  • 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.
