Superb, Outstanding, the BEST!

Angela was recently recommended to me as an advocate for my UIA Telephone hearing. It was very short notice, with little time to review my case and consult with me over the details. She was extremely helpful in explaining everything, as I had never been through a situation like this ever before! She ...helped me and guided me through every step of the was, and really took charge on the phone hearing. I could not have done this without her! Thank you Angela for your confidence and kindness! I highly recommend her!

AMAZING JOB.

Angela is an amazing Attourney and she’s incredibly helpful. I had an unemployment hearing yesterday and even the judge said she was super thorough. I will be hiring Angela for any legal matters (she does more than just unemployment) in the future! Amazing amazing amazing Attourney.

Substitute Teacher

I consulted with Angela Whitaker re: a case for unemployment benefits. Angela thoroughly explained to the judge that I was not responsible for leaving my position. I would highly recommend Ms. Whitaker as a reputable attorney!!

Excellent Attorney

Angela Whitaker was a Godsend. She was very professional and direct. She made sure I had a clear understanding of the proceedings and presented a strong intelligent defense. She's definitely a winner. I can't thank her enough.

Unemployment hearing

Angela was very profession in representing me as an advocate in my unemployment hearing. During our prehearing discussions she explained the process and made sure I knew how to proceed. At the hearing she was very effective in her objections and making sure that the information in the case was pres...ented appropriately and fairly. Angela was very knowledgeable and confident in her representation of my case. I would highly recommend her.
