Best Texas Employment Lawyer!!

Nicole is simply amazing!! I seriously can not recommend her enough!! I had a difficult and complicated employment law situation with my previous company that needed the care and detailed attention of a superb lawyer and I hired Nicole Conger. Even though I was nervous to bring forth a case, she ease...d my mind and gave me confidence to do it. Her legal expertise, attention to detail and relentless pursuit of justice resulted in a very favorable outcome for me. She is also one of the sweetest humans I have ever known and goes above and beyond to comfort clients when the case details are hard to relive. Nicole is readily available after hours and quick to respond. If you need an employment lawyer, hire Nicole Conger immediately if you want to win your case!!!

Life Saver - Fantastic Lawyer/Person

I had a very difficult situation with my employer. Being a white male, I was also concerned that I was not going to be able to do anything about it. Nicole not only guided me through the process of what I should document, she was my sounding board for all of the stress/emotions I was going through. S...he continually reassured me that what transpired was illegal, and informed me of the appropriated process that we would take. The moment she took my case she was diligent, kind, supportive and a true partner. We worked collaboratively throughout the time to make sure that everything was in order, that documentation was detailed, and that my case continued to get stronger. She accurately described what she thought we could get as a settlement and patiently worked with me to get what we had agreed on regarding settlement. There were times when I was nervous and concerned, but she was always supportive, kind, empathetic and helped me stay the course. As she predicted, we were able to resolve the matter, and my settlement was exactly what she/we had anticipated. I highly recommend Nicole, not only for the fact that she is a very smart lawyer, but because she truly understands the emotional trauma people suffer when dealing with abusive employers. I have yet to have ever experienced a lawyer who is as authentic, kind, compassionate and most importantly empathetic. I recommend her 150%.

She gets it done!!!!

What I loved the most was that Nicole never promised me anything, she showed me with her actions and expertise! Nicole was communicative, from day 1 she wanted to fully understand my case, and she will do the same for anyone!!!! Thank you Nicole!!!!

An Exceptional Attorney!

After numerous attorneys refraining from taking on my case, Nicole was the one attorney who not only agreed to take on my case, but returned my call at 8:00 P.M., attentively listened to my situation, answered all of my questions with honesty, explained how the law works, explained the proper steps t...o initiate legal action, provided me with her professional expertise when dealing with FMLA cases, and never pressured me into hiring her as my attorney. After discussing my situation with Nicole, she made it very clear to me that what was done to me was unlawful, and unjust, therefore I indeed have a case against my former employer. As Nicole and I continued to discuss my situation, Nicole demonstrated exceptional morals and values. I could tell from just a brief conversation that Nicole is exceedingly passionate about helping people. In addition, she was very encouraging, friendly, positive, honest, knowledgeable, and extremely fierce. After being well informed of my rights, how the law works, and the legal process I would have to undergo I felt extremely confident Nicole was the right person to represent me. Hiring Nicole as my attorney was the best thing, I could have done not only for myself but for my family as well. We now can move forward and feel whole again. If you are looking for someone who is going to be honest, bypass the sugar-coating nonsense, and fight for your rights I highly recommend you hire Nicole just like I did!

Powerhouse of knowledge and kindness

Nicole is a POWERHOUSE of knowledge! She was compassionate to my situation and equally passionate at solving my problem. Nicole is a solid communicator, knowing I couldn’t answer my phone during certain hours she would text to keep timely movement in my case. Im very happy with the resolution she neg...otiated and the time frame from which she did it. Hiring Nicole was an easy decision and a smart one.
