      Review Richard Daugherty

      Highly Recommend!

      Posted by

      Hiring Rich Daugherty was one of the BEST decision I could have ever made. He genuinely understands - He is responsive, attentive, and showed empathy all while providing excellent legal counsel. I would highly recommend Rich Daugherty! He is highly knowledgeable about employment law, and has tons of experience in all types of employment law cases. He is so dedicated that he worked on my case while he was away on vacation. He was uniquely skillful at articulating my case and negotiating on my behalf, therefore resulting in a very fair settlement. Rich is a personable and passionate individual that made a very difficult process much easier. He is the BEST and I am so glad I hired him.

      Attorney at Law

      Posted by

      In my line of work, sometimes my executive and professional clients have a need for an employment attorney. When that need arises, I work with Rich for employment law related issues. I call Rich when I have questions on behalf of my clients regarding sexual harassment, wrongful termination and discrimination law matters. Rich has a wealth of employment law experience and will fight for his clients against large corporations.

      Mr. Daugherty is knowledgeable, approachable, easily accessible and extremely passionate about what he does. He is an excellent communicator and is very meticulous about the details. He constantly goes above and beyond to answer questions and assist with information. Whether it is a simple case or a very complicated one, Rich gives his 100% to serve his clients. He is very professional and is good at working with large corporations and executive level employees. I describe Rich as an attorney with a big heart; he is the type of attorney that you want to work with during stressful times.

      Best Attorney To Face Large Corporations

      Posted by

      I was in a hostile work environment and being discriminated against in multiple ways. It took a really nasty turn when I was denied compensation I had earned and unjustly removed from my job. I dealt with the situation for months. Finally, I decided to get help and found Richard Daugherty. It is one of the best things I have ever done for myself. Handing the problem over to a strong advocate and expert righted the situation quickly. I highly recommend Mr. Daugherty. His diverse experience in other disciplines and employment law gives him a different perspective. He listened to the problems and was resourceful in finding the best ways to present the data. For all of the good reasons, he is not a text book employment attorney.

      I recently consulted with Rich for a sensitive employment law matter. Not only was he extremely knowledge of employment law in my situation, his accessibility and responsiveness was unparalleled. Rich made time to work with me during a planned vacation out of the country, and thought to reach out to me during flight delays to ask if i had questions. Thanks again Rich!
