Excellent Representation

Erik represented me in a federal employee matter and did a fantastic job throughout, leading to very successful results.

As good as it gets!

Erik did a fantastic job assisting me in navigating through the government bureaucracy of whistle blower retaliation and the Office of Special Counsel. His knowledge of the system and his sixth sense enabled me to conclude my case with the most favorable outcome possible.

Legal Service

Workplace harassment and bullying causes much pain and suffering and the employer does little to ease the discomfort. Thanks to the expert service and valuable advice received from my counsel, I was provided the strength and fortitude to go to work every day despite the pain. My work-place litigati...on spanned about four years. Mr. Snyder was the third attorney assigned to my case. He was thorough and answered each questioned presented to him. He was a consummate professional and not only applied constant pressure to the opposing counsel but also to the presiding judge hearing the case. His thoroughness and sound decision-making was instrumental in my decision to settle. I would recommend his services to anyone in need of a brilliant and respectful attorney. Many thanks to Mr. Snyder and his organization.

Positive Experience

I was subjected to unvalidated accusations, disciplinary action, and inappropriate management actions, suspension of my law enforcement certification and more. Mr. Snyder was fantastic. I was very pleased with his understanding of the facts and the task at hand. He was direct and steadfast with the ...agency, unwavering. In short order he obtained a satisfactory settlement, cleared my record, had all disciplinary actions removed from my file, and made me whole again. This was devastating to me and I am so very greatful to him.
