Jim Robin Review

GREAT LAWYER. KNOWLEDGEABLE, LISTENS WELL, ADVICE IS THOUGHTFUL AND COMPLETE. ALSO HAS SENSE OF HUMOR AND VERY EASY TO DEAL WITH.

Posted by anonymous | May 20, 2009 | Employment & Labor

Employment contract

I was terminated from a job in 1997 with what I thought was a fairly cut and dry employment contract. My employer was not going to honor the money that was owed to me so I went to an attorney recommended to me as the best employment specialist in Minneapolis. After spending 10 minutes with me he told... me he wouldn't take my case with a 90% contingency fee and that my contract wasn't worth the paper on which it was printed. I walked out of his office dejected as I was told he was the best. I then decided to meet with Jim who has been a family friend for years and see if he had a differing opinion. After five minutes, Jim said he was confident he could help. Having minimal correspondance with my former employer, Jim was able to recoup over 80% of what was owed to me. Jim is a very trustworthy and effective attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
