Caring and invested with a balance of strength and grace

I recently had an opportunity to work with Ari regarding an adverse employment situation with a public university in Pennsylvania. There are so many things that stand out from my meetings with him. 1) Following my call to his firm, he initially contacted me on a Sunday which worked great for my... schedule - I loved his availability. 2) He was personally invested in the assessment of my situation and did a great job asking questions about the circumstances of my case without giving false hope about the strength of my case. He was matter-of-fact and specific. 3) He took incredibly copious notes. About a month passed between my initial phone call with him and me ultimately hiring Ari to assist in navigating my situation. When we met for the second time, I was amazed at the thoroughness and recollection of the details of my case and we were able to get right into the heart of the decision making about how to move forward. And once I hired him we met almost immediately. There was no dust gathering as I worried about my situation. He was action oriented with the goal of moving to resolution. 4) He was clearly willing to do the work necessary to achieve success, but he also suggested ways to move forward that were less threatening to my employer and allowed me to achieve a satisfactory outcome that was timely, financially beneficial, and wasn't litigious. 5) He used his expert knowledge and experience to assess my situation in a way that allowed me to understand the strengths and weaknesses of my situation and what the most appropriate path forward would be. 6) He consistently checked during the course of our conversation to assess my level of comprehension. 7) He uses great analogies that can make a complicated topic understandable. 8) My situation was resolved rather quickly and did not require significant time. Had we needed to approach the situation in a more aggressive manner, I loved knowing Ari was in my corner and working on my behalf. He was strong, confident and competent in his approach to my case and I have every belief he would have arrived at an even more beneficial resolution to my claims were it necessary to do so. I give Ari the highest recommendation and strongly encourage you to retain him as your attorney should you find yourself in need of legal representation when dealing with an employment situation. I'm incredibly thankful for his guidance and counsel and you will be too.

Small Business Owner well served

Ari Karpf is a real professional. He and his staff were extraordinarily knowledgeable and they efficiently resolved a substantial legal problem for me. He was extremely ethical. His fees were very reasonable; I can't remember ever saying THIS about any other law firm!

Best employment attorney, BAR NONE!!

I retained Ari Karpf after firing a different attorney who was not very engaged or responsive with my case. I truly wished I would have initially with Ari and his firm; because from A to Z (consultation to resolution of my case), Mr. Karpf displayed expansive knowledge of all aspects of employment l...aw. He is EXTREMELY responsive; passionate; and explained everything honestly to me in layman’s terms every step of the way. I am elated with the results of my case, and always felt comfortable having Mr. Karpf fighting for my rights. This is the ONLY firm that I would retain if I encountered a situation as I did with my former employer, because Ari Karpf is an amazing lawyer; and the results speak for themselves!

Simply Not Worth The Time

Simply put this firm lacks trustworthiness. They made us wait without a second thought for our time. They mishandled our paperwork, never returned our calls, were haphazard and unfriendly and unprofessional.
