This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.
| Consulted Attorney
Incredibly smart, thorough and caring attorney
I reached out to Ms. Kingston on two different occasions regarding situations with two different employers. On both occasions, Ms. Kingston analyzed all of the facts involved and put together brilliant strategies and responses. Subsequently, both situations were resolved by Ms. Kingston without need for further litigation. However, if the situations had moved forward, I have no doubts that I was very well positioned for very favorable outcomes in court. Ms. Kingston is extremely knowledgeable and knows the law backwards and forwards. Also, you will find that Ms. Kingston actually cares and will take time to explain your situation with all possible ramifications. 5 star rating plus for Ms. Kingston. If you find yourself in need of legal help regarding employment law, you owe it to yourself to contact Ms. Kingston first. Truly amazing!
