A Great Federal Attorney

After praying and searching on line for a good Federal Attorney, I decided to hire Daniel to represent me during the process of my Federal Case. From the beginning he guided me and assisted me throughout this case. He was very informative and knowledgeable. Daniel and I worked well together. He did a... great job as my Federal Attorney. I would choose him again to represent me! Furthermore, if you are searching for a good attorney, I recommend Attorney Daniel Maharaj. Thank you Daniel

Highly Recommended Attorney !!!

Mr. Maharaj- Did not crumble under pressure by MSPB Judge or the Office of Personnel Management attorney’s. He was cool, calm and knowledgeable as he presented my case flawlessly to MSPB board. OPM attorney’s attempted to deny me of my retirement benefits which I worked so hard to achieve, but... thanks to Mr . Maharaj’s knowledge and experience they were not successful. I am very happy with the work he performed on my behalf. If I had to do it all over again. I would hire him with the quickness, he is highly recommended. Deepest Regards !!

Federal Employment Law Expert

Hiring Solomon, Maharaj & Kasimati was the smartest decision I made in my legal federal employment law case. At every stage , Mr. Maharaj kept me informed, explained the lengthly process stages, argued on my behalf through well thought out legal substantive facts and equally as important, treated ...me like a person that mattered and not a number as many large firms sadly do. Mr. Maharaj worked tirelessly on my case, respectfully going toe to toe with the federal government attorneys and proving himself through his dedication to me as his client. While all cases are different, I would suggest the forward thinking legal arguments and attention to detail Mr Maharaj championed on my behalf, were the determining factors that resulted in the positive outcome of my case. I proudly recommend Mr. Maharaj and could not have asked for a more knowledgeable, hard working defender of my rights.

Protecting and Defending Your Reputation

Mr. Maharaj is focused, diligent and caring in your defense and he will win. You have spent your career building your reputation, Don't let a Federal Agency try to tear it down retaliating against your for following or enforcing the law or Policy. After providing significant testimony in resp...onse to several independent and agency investigations, the agency retaliated against me. Dan aggressively countered and filed motions and appeals through various Federal Employment adjudication agencies (EEO, OSC & MSPB) The negotiated settlement agreement Mr. Maharaj arranged was better than expected and the agency had to provide significant compensatory damages as well as future employment references and opportunities.

Successful representation

I hired Daniel Maharaj of SM&K to represent me in an appeal of my annual performance appraisal issued to me by my employing Government Agency. Attorney Daniel Maharaj submitted a detailed rebuttal and appeared personally at the Hearing. He made a vigorous presentation within the short time allotted t...o us. Subsequently, the firm investigated various aspects of the circumstances surrounding the evaluation and brought to light several relevant matters such that my performance evaluation has been rectified, and I am now secure in my job. I can recommend Daniel and this Law firm to anyone in Government employment who encounters similar impediments in their workplace. MG, Washington DC.
