Breach of Employment Contract

I consulted several attorneys about my situation and I was told that while my case was interesting with respect to the law, it was not a clear cut win. The other attorneys either were not interested in taking my case or they required a hefty upfront fee to pursue my rights. I received a referral to... Mr. Nixa and, after discussing my case, he agreed to a contingency fee arrangement. Mr. Nixa was a good listener and sympathetic about my situation. He communicated often and involved me in his decisions on how to proceed. After Mr. NIxa filed a complaint, my ex-employer became amenable to a negotiated settlement. Mr. Nixa handled the negotiation well and he again solicited my input. A reasonable agreement was reached to avoid litigation.
