Excellent Representation for Employment Matters

Summary: Responsive, professional, and supportive. Tristan and the team explained everything clearly, reduced my stress, and made sure I was protected. I highly recommend them for employment matters. Full Review: I worked with Alan C. Olson & Associates on an employment law matter, and I strongl...y recommend them. From my very first conversation with Alan, I felt listened to and supported. He helped me understand that my concerns were valid, which gave me the confidence to move forward. Tristan handled the majority of my case and was calm, thorough, direct, respectful, and always reassuring. Any time I emailed or called because I was unsure about contract language or uncomfortable with how something was written, he took the time to explain it and made sure I fully understood what it meant. He never rushed me and always made sure I was comfortable before signing anything. He was also very responsive. Any time I asked for an update, he was happy to provide one. The process could have been extremely stressful, but with their guidance I only experienced two difficult weeks at the start of the case, and that stress was due to the situation itself, not the firm. After that, everything felt much more manageable because I knew I had a team that genuinely cared about protecting me. They are straightforward and honest about your options. They do not push court unless it is truly the best path for you. In my situation, they were candid that going to court could have put too much emotional strain on me after seeing how difficult the early weeks were. That honesty helped me trust their advice and make the best decision for my wellbeing. I felt supported from start to finish and I am grateful for the care and professionalism I received. I highly recommend Tristan and his team for anyone needing help with an employment matter.

No Hesitation to Recommend!

I highly recommend Alan Olson for a few key reasons. He is very knowledgeable and maintains a consistent and methodical approach. Further, he is squarely focused on the ultimate goals involved in a case. Finally, he possesses an even keel attitude and a quiet confidence that is reassuring. I very ...much enjoyed working with Alan and would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

This is who you need for employee advocacy.

Alan is a fierce fighter for employee rights. He cares. He communicates. He explains what can be intimidating and scary processes with a calm and experienced demeanor.

Exceptional Employment Lawyer

I was thoroughly impressed with Attorney Olsen's expertise, and excellent negotiating skills. He always answered my questions in a timely manner and put me at ease throughout the legal process. Attorney Olson did an excellent job at securing a favorable severance settlement for me. I highly recommend... hiring Alan Olson and Associates. ‍ ‍

Severance Contract Review

When I called Mr. Olson's office, I spoke with his administrator, explaining my situation. Mr. Olson was able to make the time to quickly speak with me during that very first call. I proceeded to email him my severance documents. Within 24 hours, he was able to review my documents and personally c...alled me to share a very professional summary of my options and his recommendations. Based on his talking point recommendations, I was able to call my former employer and secured additional severance compensation. I would recommend Mr. Olson to anyone looking for an employment and/or severance lawyer.
