A true professional

I needed a legal professional to quickly review an employment termination contract, before I was willing to sign it. Deirdre not only helped quickly, she was very thorough, insightful and provided the legal insight on how I needed to proceed. She had the expertise I needed to resolve my employment is...sues. I will gladly contact her again should the need arise.

Smart. Honest. Knows her stuff.

Deirdre knows employment law inside and out. She digs deep into your situation, making sure you have considered all of the facts and reviews possible outcomes. As an HR professional, I would not like to be across the courtroom from Deirdre (if she is representing one of my employees). Above all, he...r ethics and professionalism set her apart.

Future-Thinking and Perceptive

As an HR consultant, I have used Deirdre for my practice and have recommended her to my clients which she has served well. She is smart, pragmatic and well-versed in employment law and beyond. She also gives dynamite presentations and webinars. She is practical and sensitive to your culture and spec...ific needs. She's earned my 5 stars!

Mrs. Wehr

Deirdre has been my employment lawyer since 2005. I don't know what I would do without her. I have utilized her expertise with employment law many times. She has represented my company in UC hearings, writing and updating the employee handbook, and she keeps me informed on rulings and laws that I ...need to adhere to in order to run a company. When she gives advise she is only looking out for what is best for my company and myself, but will ultimately allow me to make the final decisions on what ever we are doing. Even with her busy schedule, she will always have time for my many questions. I would highly recommend Deirdre to represent you and know that you will be pleased wit her wealth of knowledge.

Mrs. Giampa

Diedre has represented me in two separate cases. She could not have worked harder for me. She is extremely knowledgeable, very sharp! I have nothing but praise to say about her abilitys and seriousness of her clients. I reccommend her to anyone who is seeking quality representation in her fields of e...xpertise.

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.
