Thomas Dolina

Thomas and his staff did a great job for me in my workers comp case. They were all very easy to deal with and made a bad sutuation more tolerable. They took the time to explain everything to me.

Employment advice

Mr Dolina gave me sage advice at a critical time in my career. His consultation gave me good perspective on the situation I faced and was clearly not given for his own profit. I would recommend him highly to anyone facing tough decisions in regards to employment.

Excellent Lawyer

Tom did an amazing job handling my case. It was a very difficult and humiliating experience and he was extremely professional. He kept me well informed and advised me throughout the entire processes. Tom kept the case moving and was able to get it resolved quickly. I would highly recommend using him ...for an employment law issues you are having.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
