A very good attorney

He is a fair, conscientious and affordable attorney. I greatly appreciated his representation and was an expert in the subject matter.

Honest and Reasonable

In my experience, Mr. Bail is straight forward about the merits of a case and the variables that could have an impact on the outcome. He is open to discussion about opportunities to resolve matters, allows the client to have input on different possible paths, and will work with his client to engage t...he other party to settle the case if appropriate. I believe Mr. Bail is honest and will not bill unreasonably.

A Lawyer You Can Trust!

I have received consultations from Ashok during two different periods over the past six months. His advice on both occassions was to use a lawsuit as a last resort and provided counsel that a lawyer was not needed currently but may be needed if the situation worsens. After speaking during the s...econd period, he quoted rates for different situations in my case where I should pursue legal council. His quotes were reasonable and well within the expected legal fees for my case given the various scenarios. If my situation does not improve and I need the services of a lawyer, Ashok will certainly be that lawyer!

Testimony from a Current Client

Mr. Ashok Bail competently provide the quality of service one hopes to find at a large law firm, combined with a high level of personal attention to detail, and a fee structure clients can appreciate. Mr. Bail strongly believes that the client is entitled to the very highest level of service. It is a...lso important that the size and scope of a client’s legal needs are recognized. A characteristic I looked for and found in Mr. Bail is responsiveness: Mr. Bail is well aware of the importance of being available to his clients when needed. If he is occupied during the business day he returns phone calls and e-mails as quickly as possible. I appreciate his extensive knowledge and expertise in employment/labor law as well as civil rights and discrimination. He also displays a "client-first" attitude. Mr. Bail believes the client, not the attorney, should determine the style and quantity of legal services to be provided. An attorney needs to listen to his client, fully understand his/her needs, and work within that context. From the moment he accepted my case to the present, Mr. Bail has kept me abreast of every step taken and ensured that I not only be informed of every legal decision made, but that I have final say. His professionalism, dedication, knowledge of the law, and genuinely expressed interest in my legal circumstance have gained Ashok my trust, respect and gratitude.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I've consulted with Ashok, and second-chaired a week long trial with him. I've seen him with clients, and heard him on the phone with them, and one thing is obvious ... that he cares. Yes, he is professional, but he mixes in passion for the work and compassion for wronged parties. It has been a few years, but I'd not hesitate to hire him, or work with Ashok again."
