Very thorough, dedicated and persistent

Ms. Rucker is a very dedicated and knowledable attorney. Ms. Rucker was able to gain a very favorable outcome in my case. Although, the case is moving forward--I have every bit of confidence that I will indeed receive justice. I highly recommend Ms. Rucker with any employment discrimination matter as... she will work for everything you are entitled under the law.

The best lawyer to have on your side

I feel very confident that Ms. Rucker can handle my case. Ms. Rucker is very smart and has intense knowledge regarding EEOC compliance issues. I look forward to the final outcome, which I know will be every bit in my favor. Ms. Rucker's positive record speaks volumes. I would recommend Ms. Rucker is ...anyone seeking assistance with an EEOC matter.
