Sad Situation

Consulted months ago. She said certain conditions were not met yet, when said conditions were met, contact her again and we could advance case. Two months later contacted her office and was put off by assistant. Was given numerous assurances that Stephanie would return my call. After 50 days, 11 cal...ls, emails ,and a few union officials phone calls I finally receive a 3 line response email. 50 days was enough to kill my case due to time constraints.

Meeting with Stephanie with a $300 consult consultation fee.

I met with Stephanie. the other day and we discussed the particulars of my case. She encouraged me to go to the EEOC as she does to everyone and I told her I would follow through. She said once I have been to the EEOC we would send a demand letter and see where that went. It was my full understanding... that we had an agreement that she was going to represent me. I have no other reason to indicate that she will not follow through with what she told me. I did not sign anything, but I have sent her documentation for the case. She told me the rate of contingency fee would be 35 percent. I agreed to that and we threw around dollar amounts of what she thought it might possibly be worth at trial or settlement. She said if they booked at the demand letter, then we would necessitate going to trial. I told her I did not think that's it would be as much of a problem because of the amount of evidence that I do have against my former employer. My name is John

Very Disapointed

I met with Stephanie several months ago, paid the fee she requested to hear my employment case of discrimination. She stated she would represent me if I received a Right to Sue letter from the EEOC. When I obtained such documents, after several weeks contacting her, she finally said she would not t...ake my case. No, we did not sign a contract, but a handshake was respectable and morally binding. She did not follow though with our meeting.

I am sorry to hear that you had a misunderstanding of our agreement. I'm unsure of the specifics of our meeting since you chose to remain anonymous, but I am certain that I would never promise representation if I did not intend to follow through. I often recommend the EEOC as a course of action without my involvement if I do not believe we would be a good fit. In order to obtain representation, we must sign an engagement letter - once we do that, I represent you through the end of your matter.

  • 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.
