Krista Robinson

In 2021 my employer refused to pay my salary and terminated me after I inquired about it. My family recommended that I move on with my life and NOT get a lawyer. I was also nervous about any legal process, didn’t know if I even had a case, didn’t know how much this would cost. But, I couldn’t drop... the matter for myself. I did my research and ultimately spoke to 4 attorneys. Krista was the first attorney to reply - always professional, always prepared (...unlike the others). She answered all my questions. The big difference with Krista is that she was the one attorney who actually listened. I feel very lucky to have had her on my side. In such a process it’s easy to get stressed, wondering what’s happening, new questions popping up. Krista always updated me when necessary so that I could relax. I’d recommend that if you are on the fence about your situation, as I first was, let Krista help you figure that out sooner rather than later (your case may have a time limit). Don’t let confusion freeze you. You’ll be happy that Krista is on your team - I’m sure of it.

It is my pleasure to give my recommendation for Krista and Joel. I recently settled my case against my ex-employer for wrongful termination and withholding my severance pay which i was entitled but denied. Krista and Joel worked tirelessly with me to exposed my employer's shady practices and get me t...he compensation i deserved. The end settlement is more than what i had expected. Their combined knowledge are invaluable to achieving the result I got. However, the most important part of our, now ended, journey is Krista listened to me vent when i had no one else to talked to. We spent hours talking over the phone and Krista patiently listened and counseled me with grace and true professionlism. Krista is very responsive to my questions and concerns and answered with lighting speed. It was a pleasure working with them. My final thoughts, yes i would defiantly recommend Krista and Joel. Yes, i would seek their counsel again if this ever happens again. Thank you.

I called Krista with a termination case that has become quite an emotional one. She returned my called that same day and gave me quick, thorough information over the phone to get me started. This was my first time working with an Employment Lawyer, so I didn't know what to expect. As others mentio...ned, her fees are extremely reasonable and she does all that she can to offer sound advice so you can negotiate civilly without involving legal assistance. I was in tears after we spoke, as I truly felt I had someone in my corner and that it would all work out! If you're looking for a dynamic, thoughtful, well-versed lawyer, Krista is your man!! I would recommend her to anyone.

Initially, Krista and Joel were very responsive, polite and receptive to my case. They listened attentively and provided me with a couple of options they thought were available and best suited to my situation- 1. submitting a letter of demand to the company with the intention to get some minimal mone...tary compensation and offering my resignation or 2. submitting a letter of demand with the intention to preserve my job. I decided on a 3rd option - leaving the company and submitting a letter of demand. After I left the company, Krista and Joel refused to take on my case and submit the letter of demand, on my behalf. My sense was that they were hesitant to represent me against a large corporation, because of lack of experience. They wanted to go for a quick and certain win (small settlement, with job resignation; quick income opportunity for them), but they were afraid to address/represent my concerns, on my terms. Worth mentioning is that they wanted as a form of payment 33% of the settlement amount. At that point, I looked up another lawyer, with more experience, great reviews and with a fairly high hourly fee. The risk was higher for me, using a lawyer that charged me upfront and hourly, rather than as a percentage of a potential settlement, but I knew that what happened to me was not right and that I have a strong case. After a lengthy process, the large corporation settled my case for about 3x what Krista and Joel anticipated would be the best-case scenario. My advice to Krista and Joel is that even though large corporations have a strong, experienced legal staff, we still have a country of law and order. If you see a client that has a strong case, have the gut and courage to go against large corporations, because there are laws that should (and do) protect the worker.
