Loss wages recovery specialist and litigation expert

Kell Simon is lawyer who is an expert in employment law and experienced in recovering lost wages including overtime pay, bonus money promised, and expenses owed from employers. He listens to you, explains your options in every day language, stays in contact through out the entire process and doesn't... move until you say what you want -- your in control. He helped me convenience my former employer they couldn't do or say what they wanted. That there are rules they have to follow. He recovered what I was owed plus his fees. I would recommend and would use him again.

Very Good Employment Lawyer

I was let go from a company after devoting 17 years of my life to building their business to the heights it currently enjoys because of medical issues. I felt it was unfair. I met with Kell and he agreed and we went after the company for wrongful behavior. Kell was with me through the entire process ...which at times can feel very intimidating. We received a favorable outcome.

Very responsive on short notice

I needed to consult with someone on very short notice (read: hours) to discuss my employment agreement in order to make a decision on taking a new job. Kell responded to my inquiry almost immediately and was available for phone consult a few hours later and the next day as well. He was instrumental i...n the decision I made and I would recommend him to anyone else looking for employment law consult.

A Good Man

Kell is not only a good lawyer, but a good human being. He heard my case out over several hours, filed an EEOC complaint, and gave me an honest opinion of what he thought my chances of success would be if we went to court. I ended up deciding not to go to court, but I believe this was the right choic...e, which I wouldn't have been able to make without Mr. Simon's sympathetic, thorough, and honest advice.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
