Good job
The Clinton firm did a good job representing me and explaining to me how my non-compete clause was binding. They helped me get out of a lawsuit filed by my former company against me.

After getting the class certified and defeating a motion to dismiss, Ed worked with me at a mediation to settle the case with each class member receiving substantial monetary compensation.

Our firm has referred complex legal malpractice matters to him and consults with him on legal ethics issues because of his substantial experience and competence in that area."
