Ethan G. Zelizer

Ethan is a very thorough and competent professional. I gave notice to my company that I was leaving for a competitor and two days before my last day, the Company decided to take issue with where I was going. They tried to have me sign various documents before I left that would encumber my ability to... work. They claimed that I had already signed documents years ago but they could not produce them to me. Ethan immediately got involved and in a professional manner, he worked with the Company's attorney to work out an exit plan. He also spoke with my new employer to make sure that they knew what was going on and that the matter was being handled. Most importantly, he made sure that both companies were comfortable with my actions and knew that I acted with integrity. I felt he always had my best interest in mind. It is my privilege to recommend Ethan Zelizer, a phenomenal lawyer, who delivered a good result. Tremendous value. He practices the best client service methods. 5 stars.

Ethan was professional, responsive, and understanding of my legal issues. Ethan resolved my issues promptly and efficiently, which I very much appreciated. Being a lawyer myself, I understand how important it is to find a lawyer who has both fantastic legal skills and empathy- Ethan has both. Etha...n connects with his clients because he truly cares about helping them through their legal issues. I would recommend Ethan to anyone with an employment law issue. Ethan went above and beyond by also giving me tips and offering to help in any way possible with starting my new law firm!

I recently consulted with Ethan on the exit package I received from my employer. Ethan was very honest and open with me during our initial call and even did a quick review without a fee. Had I decided to pursue negotiation with my employer, I would have hired Ethan. I will not hesitate referring him ...to friends and colleagues.

Ethan provided me with advice on a separation agreement with a former employer in the financial services industry. He was diligent and detailed in reviewing each paragraph of the agreement and various equity documents and renegotiated a significantly better non-solicitation and exit-package based on ...what we believed to be an unlawful termination. I enjoyed working with him and appreciated his quick responses, updates, advice and timely follow-up. He has strong negotiations skills and is passionate about his work. I interviewed lawyers from a few top law firms and Ethan stood out among his peers with his client-focused, proactive and results-oriented approach.

Ethan came highly recommended by a friend who works at a large law firm and had sent his own sister to Ethan for representation. This matter went far longer than I expected. What I thought would be a simple exit negotiation turned into a dogfight because my previous employer would not waive my non-co...mpete. Ethan suggested we challenge its validity and pursue a compensation claim based on my initial contract. We fought for nearly 9 months -- during COVID! During that time, I received outstanding legal counsel, excellent customer service, and peace of mind. I was always able to reach Ethan either by phone, email or even text and he told me when I would need to be patient because he had other matters to attend to. We were able to invalidate my non-compete and significantly increase my severance due to contractual issues that Ethan was on top of from day one. There is a reason why Ethan is so highly-regarded. I am ready to refer anybody his way.
