Excellent Attorney

Joyce represented me in a wrongful termination case against a large national employer which became highly contested due to the award at stake. The case also fell under the rules of a unique industry regulator so she assisted me in adding to our team other qualified attorney's who were specialists in ...those regulatory areas. She also regularly reached within her firm to tap into the deep talent pool of her partners which was very beneficial to my case. Her clear understanding of employment law was relied upon regularly by the industry-regulatory attorneys and her contribution resulted in strong and unique pressure being put onto the other party. Pressure that would not have existed without her knowledge and expertise. Her guidance helped lead us to a very favorable outcome in my case. She was also a strong advocate and personal supporter during the case which was important towards me staying the course and persevering against an employer which is known for never losing in these types of disputes.

Age discrimination client

Joyce was kind, considerate, and respectful. She worked hard supporting us against an employer who pulled out a high-powered law firm, a judge who did not want to make a precedent-setting decision, and an arbitrator who...let's say did not do what he originally said he would do. Joyce and her paraleg...al staff kept us informed every step of the way. Even though the eventual outcome was disappointing, I believe Joyce always had my best interest in mind.

Can not say enough

Joyce Smithey skillfully represented me in a year-long dispute against a major employer. My case was deeply complex and demanded an attorney who could work through internecine details. She led the way in compelling our opponents to the table, successfully fending off their attempts to secure a non-di...sclosure agreement. No mean feat, that! Yes, I'd recommend Joyce Smithey and her all-star teammates in any cause. They are hard-working people, and great company to boot.

A Knowledgable Advisor

Ms. Smithey is a very trustworthy and hardworking attorney, whom I respect immensely. She is readily knowledgable about employment law issues and can provide advice while remaining sensitive to her clients' needs. She has handled my case with the utmost care and attention, which has enabled me to f...eel confident in the pursuit of this matter. She has provided me with peace of mind during a difficult time, which is what sets a competent attorney apart from the rest. I am grateful to have her as an advisor, and would refer her to my friends and family should they ever require representation.
