Kristin Alden

The removal from Federal Service was one of the most traumatic experiences in my lifetime, and the litigation would have truly been impossible to navigate without the expertise of Kristin Alden and her associates. From the initial consultation, to the MSPB Hearing, and then the resulting Settlement-... Kristin and her staff were profoundly competent. I could not be more pleased with the result. It was a long, difficult journey - and it is one you should never contemplate taking alone. Thank you, Kristin!

Kristin Alden negotiated my settlement with a former employer, and represented me in follow up discussions navigating disclosures around the settlement agreement. She was exceptional - smart, analytical, professional, strategic and empathic. More than that, she made herself available to me whenever n...ecessary, listened to my concerns and my thoughts regarding the best approach, and constructively and cogently offered wise counsel. I highly recommend her without reservation!

I would highly recommend Kristen Alden. I hired her after a particularly egregious sexual harassment situation. She did an excellent job on my case. She met all deadlines and explained things to me so that I could understand. I was really traumatized by what had happened to me and it made it hard... for me to participate in the case. Just reading the affidavits would give me a panic attack, something I’ve never experienced before. Kristen and her team were patient with me and helped me navigate these challenges. They let me know in advance when things were happening so I wouldn’t be surprised and get freaked out. They were able to make this process as painless as possible. When I started working with them, my harasser was threatening to ruin my career. Now my career is right back to the great path it started on. I’m really grateful to her and her team.

I was in the same situation as most of you, confused, anxious, hesitant, upset due to being wronged, and seeking someone to not only hear me out but also provide sound legal advice other than "this is going to be costly". I had already retained counsel from another law firm, which proved to be a mist...ake and I found myself seeking counsel in the midst of discovery. I had spent 2 years of time, lots of money, and energy to have the ball dropped at such a pivotal point. My case was an official hot mess! The law firm I spoke to after firing my initial attorney only advised me that if I was to proceed, my case would get very expensive, but they were more than happy to represent me. Feeling uneasy and that I wasn't provided any real advice for the consult I paid for, I decided to continue my search and that is when I was referred by a colleague to Kristen Alden and her law firm. Little did I know that was the game changer for my case. I had a single consultation with Kristen that felt alot more like a conversation and for the the first time during my matter that I felt listened to; she was patient, informative, and brilliant with her advice. Why brilliant? Because I followed her advice to the letter and within 3 weeks my case had leapt from Agency counsel saying they would never consider settlement to having a settlement offer in my inbox, which Kristen reviewed. Hindsight being 20/20 I probably could have saved myself alot of time, stress, and energy, if I would have gone with the Alden Law Group from the beginning. Let my mistake be your lesson, go with Kristen and her law group. Additionally, Kristen Alden and her law group have CLOUT, yes they have a professional reputation that made the agency counsel change their entire strategy and approach. Kristen and The Alden Law group is the real deal, do yourself a huge favor and make sure to take the consultation, it is worth every penny and then some.

I found Kristin Alden online. At the same time, I was asking for a recommendation from a couple of attorney acquiantances who did not practice in this area. Interestingly, they both recommended her. I am grateful that I hired Kristin. After our initial consult, I felt confident that she would fight f...or me. She was realistic from the beginning about the merits of my case (strong) and how much compensation that I would be able to get given that it was an EEO case. She made it clear that settlement was the likely path and a good path as it would allow me to move forward with my life rather than continuing to deal with the emotional and physical harm this was causing me. She was and is a very compassionate person. She empathized with me. She is very personable which was important to me. As far as her expertise, she knows the law in and out. This is important to understand because it really comes down to what is legal and illegal. She is on top of deadlines which is critical to an EEO case. She is aware of the "games" the government takes to delay. Kristin is well connected which is significant as she clearly has a good rapport and reputation with judges who ultimately become involved in either a settlement or a court date. She is resolute with opposing counsel. Kristin has a presence and confidence about her. She has a lot of experience and will fight for you. I was very pleased with my settlement. I have recommended her to others. You can't go wrong with Kristin!
