5-Star Recommendation!

Attorney Favors was incredible! He gave me some really wonderful advice that helped me decide what to do with my employer. I didn't hire him (or any attorney for that matter) but it was because the situation worked itself out. I'd absolutely recommend Attorney Favors.

Lawyers Need Lawyers too...

Whenever you find yourself in need of an attorney it is never a good place. As an actual practicing attorney it can be even more frustrating to need a lawyer, because you are trusting someone to do something you think you should be able to do yourself. Abraham Lincoln reportedly said, “He who rep...resents himself has a fool for a client.” So, when I found myself in need of an attorney-- I knew it couldn’t be me. I am proud to say that Attorney Rashad Favors made me feel comfortable with the consultation. He assessed my needs and future career goals and balanced them with the options available for me. Attorney Favors made me feel secure in making my final decision regarding the case because I was confident that he is competent in the law and provided me a fully informed outlook on my case. I would recommend anyone who has employment and labor law, contracts and agreements questions, or business law questions to immediately reach out to Attorney Favors.

Incredible Lawyer with a heart of GOLD!

Attorney Reshad Favors is an absolute delight and pleasure to work with. I contacted him in regards to employment discrimination case and have every confidence that he has the intelligence, work ethic, compassion, and dedication to successfully handle my case all the way to potential litigation. He i...s kind and listens to understand fully and thoroughly what the issue is. He asked thoughtful, well reasoned, and thought-provoking questions in an effort to figure out my legal issue. He has the knowledge and experience to handle cases at all levels. I feel confident and secure in hiring this law firm to represent me in any and every legal matter that I might have. It is with great assurance that I highly recommend Mr. Favors and his team of lawyers to represent you. You will not be disappointed. Many law firms make you feel like you don’t matter or that your issue is inconsequential. I felt the exact opposite when speaking with Mr. Favors. I felt valued, heard, and as if he took my individual case seriously. He never once rushed me or hurried me on the phone and I truly thank God for this law firm and Mr. Favors.

Formal Complaint of Discrimination

I hired Mr. Favors to represent me regarding an informal complaint of discrimination filed against my employer. I could not be more pleased with Mr. Favors' representation of my case. He was very prompt in communicating with my employer regarding my complaint of discrimination, and was very profess...ional throughout those communications. Mr. Favors was very knowledgeable with the complaint process, kept me informed throughout the process, and was very prompt in responding to my employer's responses. Although I've since retired from federal government service since the initial filing of my complaint, Mr. Favors continued to address my issues with my agency. As a result of the coronavirus pandemic, I was able to telework for the last nine months of my employment, relieving me of the stress and headaches of going into my workplace on a daily basis and working in a toxic and hostile work environment. I will certainly recommend Mr. Favors to anyone that I come in contact with who seeks legal council regarding workplace discrimination.

Superior Service

I am so grateful for the services of Mr. Favors. He is honest, consistent, transparent, and his follow through is through the roof. I solicited services from him when I was in need of legal support for an employment law matter. I was very hesitant to reopen a difficult and emotional matter, but Mr. F...avors showed great empathy and made me feel at ease we discussed the matters of my concerns. I highly recommend him for legal services.
