Perfect combination of professional expertise and human interaction

Attorney Secunda helped me resolve a health care funding issue with complications from my old employer. Paul had the perfect combination of top professional expertise and human interaction. Paul was straightforward, open and honest with his assessment and probability of success/failure. Paul refused ...to accept no as answer and continued digging the issue with the opposing lawyer. His understanding of the law and his persistence paid well for us and the problem was resolved to our satisfaction. I will call upon Paul without hesitation if I face similar issues in the future.

VP Ambulatory

Paul was able to explain highly complex state and federal statutes related to contracts, employment agreements and executive benefits retirement plans. His knowledge supported my ability to make informed decisions on next steps. As I researched various legal representatives, the difference in both... Paul's knowledge and approach was evident. He provided guidance and options at each step of the process. His communications were timely and on point. He was transparent regarding how the issues might evolve and ensured no false expectations. He smoothly handled all of the communications with the opposing representatives. Thanks to Paul's support, I am very satisfied with how my issues were resolved. I highly recommend Paul!

Great experience and protected my best interests! Highly Recommend!

I reached out to Attorney Secunda for a consultation on an employment separation agreement. His immediate response and explanation of services was amazing. We hired him immediately to handle the agreement negotiations. Paul was an outstanding advocate for my negotiations. He really listened and provi...ded feedback specifically to protect me and my family. He thoroughly explained all information to be sure we understood the details of our case and always ensured we knew the decision was ours. I felt like I had such a friend in my corner, I cannot even say partner because it felt like he was a solid friend protecting our interests. So responsive to every email, phone call, and any concerns we had. I can’t say enough positive statements of what he did for our family! I would highly recommend working with Attorney Secunda and he would be my first call if I needed services again.

Dispute with old employer on health care

My old Employer was trying to take advantage of us by changing some of the ways our health plan was administered. Paul was knowledgeable from the start and understanding. An agreement was worked out to essentially leave our healthcare unchanged. This was so important to our future. I had a bad e...xperience in the past with the law and legal system. Paul helped renew faith in the system. Thanks Paul!

Great to Worth With.

I had the unfortunate event of finding myself in an employee-employer event late on a Friday afternoon. To quickly summarize, I am a healthcare provider and was employed by a medium sized healthcare firm. I reached out to 4 firms via email over the weekend to discuss my situation. Paul persona...lly called me on Monday morning. 2 firms never returned my call and the other called me back almost a week later. Definitely points for responsiveness out of the gate. Paul reassured me that he had experience in dealing with the issue I had at hand and we spent about 40 minutes talking in our initial consultation and he was thorough and patient with all my questions during this initial free consultation period. By the end of the call, we had agreed to work together as I had complete confidence in his representation. As I wanted the issue resolved quickly given the quickly deteriorating relationship with my employer, he had a contract ready for me within 24 hours to represent me and by the next day, he had contacted my employer with a separation agreement. I did not have to have any further contact with my employer and he handled all the details in getting me a full separation and completely on my terms within a week of our initial consultation and I was able to move on. I would not hesitate to hire Paul for any future needs should they arise in any employment issue.
