Posted by anonymous | May 18, 2017 | Wrongful Termination

Lawyer Wanted $300 To Talk!

I have a clear cut case--piles of evidence that my superior lied about me in print on evaluations and also proof that he ignored the ADA and did not provide the reasonable accommodations I had requested and had had approved. This attorney could have made a pile off my case. But greed replaced commo...n sense--he wanted me to pay a $300 fee just to talk to him and then a retainer. Uhhhh, this is a WRONGFUL TERMINATION case. I HAVE NO MONEY BECAUSE I WAS FIRED UNJUSTLY. So where on earth do I come up with all this extra money to fight for money? If I had money, I wouldn't need him! He is another money hungry piranha in a sea of shark-infested corporate water; I'm just a very small fish with a legitimate claim.

I am sorry you are frustrated, but your frustration is misplaced. We are a very small law firm -- only two attorneys -- with a stellar reputation that is contacted by nearly 400 potential new clients every month (nearly all of whom tell us that they have a "clear-cut case" that will win a "pile" of money). While our initial telephone intake interview is free, if we have determined that you might have a legitimate case, we require a $300 fee for a legal analysis consultation, where we meet with you for an hour or longer, review all of your documents and give you our legal analysis of the strength of your case and your best options moving forward. If we are interested in representing you moving forward, we may offer a full contingency fee agreement, or a hybrid agreement that includes a reduced hourly fee and a reduced contingency fee. Unfortunately, we simply cannot afford to provide free in-person meetings with every potential client, as we would never have time to get any work completed. You certainly would not go to see a doctor to find out if you have a medical problem and not expect to pay for his or her time, so why would you expect anything different from an attorney? The reality is that you get what you pay for. . . .

Responsive

Good job! My case was settled with a good and fair outcome. Andrew patiently listened and handled the case professionally. I hope that going forward that the employer will put more thought into hiring and retention practices for a more diverse and balanced workforce. I can only hope that a seed has... been planted.

Expertise Combined With Integrity and Efficiency

Finding yourself in need of an attorney because of discrimination and/or retaliation issues with an employer can truly be upsetting. After a lot of soul-searching and reading up on discrimination and retaliation, I knew I had to pursue the matter, because what was happening just wasn't right. I did a... thorough search online and decided upon Andrew Dansicker because of his extensive experience in working for both employers and employees, the reviews by those he has helped and his peers. as well as the professional high quality of his web-site. It was definitely the right decision. He was easy to talk to, clearly explained things from both my employer's and my perspective and let me know what he believed he could do for me. I found him to be straightforward, honest and down to earth. I found the fees to be reasonable. Thanks to Mr. Dansicker, I more than doubled (almost tripled) the offer my employer wanted to give me to resolve the issue. And for that I am grateful. I recommend him highly!

Be confident this is the right guy for the job!

I hired Mr. Dansicker to help with labor discrimination from a huge healthcare institution in Baltimore. He promptly returned every email or message I had with questions about my case, gave excellent advice on how to deal with their bullying tactics and represented me in a way that I truly felt I ha...d someone in my corner who understood the details of the situation. During the settlement conference, he refused to bow down to them and even got them to settle for an amount higher than he typically sees. I am positive he could help you as much as he helped me!

Very helpful, polite, professional, and a winner

After my former employer refused to honor an agreement for payment, I contacted Andrew Dansicker for advice. Andrew was able to negotiate with the company to get me a fair package and settle my dispute with the company in a timely manner. I'm glad I called Andrew to have him review my case. Initially... they tried to throw a little money at me to make me go away after Andrew sent them a demand letter, but he knew our case was strong and we refused their offer. After a couple rounds of negotiations, we settled on an amount that seemed fair to each party. Thanks Andrew!
