ComeEd discrimination and wrongfully termination

I hired Julie Herrera to represent me in an employment discrimination case, but I was very disappointed with my experience. I felt she was unprepared to handle my lawsuit and did not provide the level of support I expected for the $5,000 retainer I paid. Communication was inconsistent, and at a criti...cal point in my case, she took time off for personal reasons, which left me feeling unsupported. Based on my experience, I would not recommend her services for employment law matters. She had the nerve to tell me that there were too many black people in my lawsuit even though a white lady wrongfully signed my termination letter. How could this lawyer collect 5,000 bucks from me and not even review my HR file. Shame on it all and Karma does not miss!!!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Julie and I shared a mutual client--she handled the wrongful termination case and I handled the divorce case. Our client thought Julie did a great job getting a settlement on his case. And when we needed documents in the divorce case, Julie was responsive and professional. I heartily endorse her."

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.
