Steven Console, founder of Console Mattiacci Law, participated with my attorney, Rahul Munshi, in my employer discrimination case. He was present for court hearings, negotiation meetings and the court trial, which in a verdict in my favor for age discrimination and retaliation against my former employer, along with Rahul Munshi and Laura Mattiacci. When you pick a Console Mattiacci Law, you will have the support of each member of the firm. Mr. Console, along with Mr. Munshi, attended all pre-trial conferences, participated in the selection of the jury and post-trial conferences and award conferences. I experienced him as a kind, dedicated and compassionate man over a period of four years. Honestly, it was my good fortune to have him to fight for me. Frankly, I was relieved to have Console Mattiacci Law on my side.
Excellent experience with superior customer relations
I was referred to Steve Console from a friend. I was being harassed and discriminated against at work which later turned into retaliation and resulted in unjust termination. I was lost and didn't know where to go and was unsure of my rights and was in need of help, guidance and support.
Steve Console, Caren Gurmankin and his team helped me from the moment I stepped into their offices until the end. I was a complete mess and a shell of myself and they stood by my side and were there whenever I needed them. I never would have been able to stand up for myself without their guidance, support and genuine care.
I highly recommend their services and skills. They are the best at what they do and they truly care about their clients.
