Best lawyer ever!

Rasha Zeyadeh was the best lawyer I could've asked for. Her assertiveness truly shows she cares and is willing to do what is needed to fight for her client. Her skills and expertise in her practice leave me with full trust. She is great with communicating every step taken forward and helps guide with... directions for further actions. She took my case wasting no time with confidence and professionalism. I would refer her to any of my friends. Thank you Rasha!!

Very good attorney

Rasha is very thorough, organized, and efficient. She makes sure to answer every question and clarify things that confuse me.  I also like that she gets my opinions and considers them first before making any move. I had to think first for a month before actually hiring her since it is a lot of money....  But the peace of mind I got afterward is priceless.  And she helped me get it.  Thanks, Rasha.

EEOC Brilliance!!

Where to begin....Rasha Z. is simply amazing!! From my initial tearful consultation with Rob Wiley to the finalization of my settlement, I have felt COMPLETELY supported by this firm.  Rasha was assigned my case and has definitely proven to be a true SHERO!  Rasha stayed informed on every aspect of m...y case, was compassionate toward my fears, and strategically planned the next steps at every interval. During this process, communication is a big deal.  Rasha called and emailed consistently always keeping me in the loop with updates and decisions needing to be made. Rasha is a worthy opponent for any opposing counsel.  I am happy with my outcome and I owe it all to her hard work.

Review Rasha Abu-Zeyadeh

A great overall experience having Rasha Zeyadeh as my attorney representing me in a discrimination claim against my former employer. Rasha was professional, efficient, personable and very thorough and insightful in explaining the whole process. Rasha was honest with me concerning time frame to resolu...tion and in setting realistic expectations of what the outcome could be. Rasha and I met regularly and exchanged emails with each other to keep me updated and informed on the progress of the case. She was very prompt with responding to my calls and emails when I had any questions or concerns. After my initial meeting with Rasha I was confident she would work hard in representing my case during negotiations on a settlement. Her extraordinary efforts helped with negotiating an acceptable and satisfying settlement. I highly recommend her.

Professional and Responsive

Rasha handled my case as if it was her only case. She was very professional in her actions and communications, which I greatly appreciated. She always responded in a timely manner to me and with all matters regarding my case. Rasha was also thorough in her explanations and provided great detail on n...ext steps. Outside of my case, she was also very respectful and empathetic to things happening in my life at the same time.

"Rasha and I attended law school together, and she was always a top advocate. It would be difficult to count all of the awards and accolades Rasha received, but I can tell you that she is a passionate attorney who takes action. Rasha is fearless in the courtroom, but she is also razor sharp in her legal analysis. Although I have not worked with Rasha directly on an employment case, I know that her clients are in amazing hands. Additionally, she is the only employment attorney my firm makes referrals to."
