"Black Belt Employee Law Master" Alan negotiates my case to success!!!!!

Alan, carefully listened to my employment issue and gathered and asked questions to best determine my case. After gathering details, he determined we had a valid reason to seek considerable recovery based on specific facts of my employment issue. He also proved himself in both written and oral com...munications with opposing counsel, and negotiated a substantial settlement to help provide me with much more time to find similar work in the new year (2014). Without Alan's help, our resources to run the household would have been severely depleted. Alan, navigated our case with great care and skill. I must admit at times I was nervous as he and opposing counsel negotiated terms. Initially opposing counsel declined to participate, then they were nudged by Alan to reconsider his claim and to provide evidence to support their refusal to work with us. Opposing counsel then agreed to offer more severance compensation, and Alan continued to negotiate on my behalf as he turned down several offers until he had achieved his original goal to provide me with a maximum compensation to our claim! Alan also worked with us on his fees , to provide us with several options to pay for his work to negotiate our case. I had flip flopped on one payment method over the weekend to another, and Alan graciously supported our decision to change the compensation plan to one of his fixed plan offerings. So the point I'm making here is that Alan was flexible with me as I decided to change to another contract with him to handle my case. I had a goal to preserve household income and savings, and over the weekend had decided it was best go with one of Alan's fixed payment options. If I lost the case it limited my expenses to his reasonable fees, and if I won the case I preserved valuable severance income to keep the household functional with much less stress while I seek new work. I should mention that this is not the 1st time, I've utilized Alan's services. I had sought his help nearly 9 years ago on a non-compete issue. He successfully deterred my employer at that time to stop harassing me regarding his non-compete claims as they were in violation of Wisconsin law. Alan wrote one letter and that ended the weekly harassment from this employer. Alan carefully and calmly determines how the law applies to your case and he then uses the facts you have provided to navigate your issue. If you tell him the truth, and you leave no important facts out of your claim & Alan determines employment law has been violated-- he is the attorney that can and will fight for your rights to a successful conclusion! Alan, thank you so much for all your hard work here! Our family is tremendously appreciative of your efforts protecting our rights!

Justice in an Unjust World

The ratings are not high enough! Alan did an excellent job. Although I was initially nervous and wanted to do the right thing, Alan clarified matters for me and made me feel confident that what we were doing was just and fair. My goal was to get what was rightfully due me, so I wouldn't have regr...ets in the future at not challenging my former employer's treatment of me regarding wrongful termination around Age discrimination and retaliation plus ERISA vioations around retirement funds. He answered all my questions and kept me in the loop in all negotiations. I was happy with the settlement monies, which was more than expected. He is extremely ethical in all his dealings and represented me well, in a way I could not represent myself as I hate confrontation and was still licking my wounds from the treatment of my former employer. Alan certainly did exceed my expectations in all areas. I would highly recommend Alan to anyone who believes they may have been treated wrongfully by their employer or former employer.
