Responsive, informed, empathetic—every attribute you’d want in an attorney

I was referred to Mauro by another attorney when I needed an expeditious consultation for a potential wrongful termination/discrimination case. He promptly responded to my inquiry—faster than any other attorney I reached out to—and provided guidance over the phone less than a day later, as well as... ongoing advice over email that weekend. His approach was empathetic and relatable, yet pragmatic; he was able to take a step back and assess the bigger picture, but also home in on the smaller details and varying factors to provide a couple of recommended paths forward. His insight, candor, and compassion gave me the validation and assurance I needed to feel confident in my decision—which ultimately was not pursuing legal action. Although I know he would have represented me well, his explanation of the pros and cons of doing so steered me in the direction that was the best for my family, even though it didn’t result in a financial payout for him. While our scope of engagement was brief, it was one of the rare positive aspects of an otherwise negative situation. Words do not adequately express my gratitude for his support.

Highly recommend Mauro Ramirez Jr.!

Mauro worked diligently and gave full effort to resolve my case! I was wrongfully terminated, and Mauro was able to prove to my ex employer that they had discriminated against me. We were able to come to an agreement with the employer and settle out of court. Mauro is not only a great lawyer, he is ...a kind, empathetic, and an incredibly responsive person. I highly recommend him for anyone needing an employment lawyer!

The Back Up I Needed

I felt stuck facing such an unfair situation with my employer. As an entry-level associate, I felt like there was no way to approach a discriminatory practice in promotions in my large corporate company. Through consultation with Mr. Ramirez, I was clearly guided to utilize my company’s grievance pro...cess and made me feel equipped to effectively address the injustice I was facing. Thank you, Mr. Ramirez, for making me feel like it was okay to stand up against these practices in my company. Thank you for backing me up against the “big guys.”

Awesome employment attorney!

Mauro provided excellent training for our organization’s managers on important topics like FML, ADA, and discriminatory employment laws. Mauro presented the material in a very easy way to understand. He also patiently answered everyone’s questions. He is knowledgeable, professional, and great to work... with. I would highly recommend Mauro to anyone who needs employment law expertise.

Excellent Labor & Employment Attorney

I have sent Mauro several cases over the years, and he is one of the most practical and effective employment attorneys that I have worked with during my career. He's handled discrimination, retaliation, wage and hour, and other cases for me. He received great results and is one of the most cost-consc...ious attorneys I've worked with. I highly recommend him for any labor & employment issue(s) that you may have.

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.
