Jeff was Great- Would recommend!

Jeff was incredible in understanding my needs, breaking down the information I had, and ultimately working with the other party to come to agreement, saving time and money. Jeff was professional, knowledgeable, honest and efficient. I will continue to use him for my business legal needs and recommend... him to others needing assistance!

Has been a tremendous help to me

Jeff has advised me on a number of employment matters over the past year or so. He has incredible expertise and a unique ability to explain things so that you understand what he is doing and why. I trust him completely and would recommend him for anyone looking for an employment lawyer.

Top Notch-Best of the Best in Employment Law and Lititgation

I have utilized Jeff in various capacities. Jeff's knowledge of the law as it pertains to labor issues (for both employer and emlpoyee issues) combined with his unrelenting committment to his clients is reflective in his outstanding results both in and out of the courtroom. You will not find a bett...er attorney in their field.

My experience with Jeff Daxe

Jeff represented me in a case involving the purchase of a defective piece of equipment. Evidently Jeff presented such a strong case in my favor that the defendent decided to settle during jury deliberation. We later found out from talking to jurors that the settlement amount I received far exceeded... the amount the jury was prepared to offer.

Workplace Harrassment Must be Confronted

Jaff Daxe was able to guide me through a very difficult situation stemming from harrassment in the workplace. His expertise in employment law was exactly what I needed. Jeff took a very personal interest in my situation at a time when I was isolated from my support system, namely my co-workers. The o...utcome was extremely positive, which also gave me the confidence to proceed with my career. You are not alone with Jeff on your team!

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.
