I have dedicated my career to helping the legal needs of the disadvantaged. I am academically and professionally involved in the Bar. I focus on New Deal legislation and subscribe to President Franklin D. Roosevelt's declaration that "Necessitous men are not free men." Many American employees are unable to provide for their families due to corporations terminating them without just cause. Similarly, many workers who are deprived of living wages are unable to be free. So, I represent hard working people that have fell victim to corporate greed.

Our initial conversation was great and he let me split up my $1500.00 fee in payments of 3. I paid it off early and still didn't hear back from him for a couple of m...

Rude
He refused to listen to the details of the case and outright dismissed it on the basis of the defendant. A lawyer should listen to the merits of the case, rather than say that a case is impossible just because of who the defendant is.

The court agreed with the employee that a jury must decide whether moving his work station violates USERRA.
28 U.S.C. Sec. 1445(c) prohibits removal of a workers compensation retaliation case, so the plaintiff's case was remanded back to state court.
Plaintiff was permitted to move forward on his claim for redress as there was a question of fact and law as to whether the Secretary of Labor adequately supervised a settlement.
The court granted class certification pursuant 29 U.S.C. Sec. 216(b), so all aggrieved installers and technicians would receive their notice of their rights.
The district court found material factual issues in dispute existed and the case was set trial.
