Austin Harris Kaplan

Austin Kaplan was amazing to work with. He really listened to my situation, explained everything clearly, and gave me practical advice that made me feel confident moving forward. You can tell he knows his stuff and truly cares about helping people. The entire staff at Kaplan is incredible too. If... you need an employment attorney, I highly recommend reaching out to this firm!

Being wrongfully terminated while on workers' compensation was devastating. In my search for a lawyer, I spoke with 37 attorneys, all of whom acknowledged that I had a strong case. However, only two had the capacity or schedule to take it on. Most of them seemed to put a price on my pain, suffering, ...and ultimately my life. One lawyer requested a large deposit upfront to continue, which sadly I did not have, but that was not the case with Maff at Kaplan Law. Instead, he asked for a substantially higher percentage of the settlement than standard. Throughout the process, I felt he marginalized all my issues except for my unpaid overtime and suggested we settle based on that alone. It seemed he was more concerned about how my former employers would feel about the lawsuit than my own feelings or well-being. My wrongful termination in retaliation to my being one workers compensation, my pain, suffering, and crippling depression were valued at less than time and a half. If you're okay with settling for less and don’t mind feeling undervalued, Kaplan Law might be a suitable choice. However, if you don't want to be taken advantage of, keep looking. I never found the right lawyer, but I believe my life is worth more than time and a half. This experience taught me that even when the law is egregiously broken, unless you are wealthy or willing to be taken advantage of, you might as well be left in the lurch.

Thanks for the support, professionalism, and wonderful advice you gave me throughout this difficult time. You are such an amazing lawyer! Without all your help and incredible legal advice, I would undoubtedly have been in a much more precarious situation. Thank you so much for your support and hard w...ork!

Kaplan law firm was recommended to me by an attorney friend based on their professionalism and dedication to detail - I wasn’t disappointed, the recommendation was the best I could hope for. I worked with Mr. Kaplan directly, and he made sure that he understood all the details of my case, he commu...nicated extremely well during the duration of our engagement and got me a very favorable outcome during a stressful time of my career. When you go through an employment dispute you want a good and competent lawyer on your side, and I felt represented extremely well by Mr. Kaplan. In addition to his representation in my labor dispute Kaplan also provided very good professional advice and I would ask him to represent me again in any labor dispute I might have in the future.
