VERY PLEASED WITH MICHELLE MATHESON'S REPRESENTATION

I had a consultation with Michelle Matheson to see if I had a Wrongful Termination Suit. She explained why my situation did not qualify for that type of a case. HOWEVER, I did have an Overtime case. I happened to mention to Michelle that I worked long hours in my job. She asked questions. I was surpr...ised to learn that even though I was a salaried employee, i was entitled to be paid for all the many hours of overtime I'd put in at the job. Michelle & her team put my case together, she filed the suit and handled everything. We never had to go to trial, the case was settled. I'm very pleased. I highly recommend Michelle Matheson.

An Extremely Competent and Professional Attorney

I was very disheartened when Michelle told me that I didn't have a case for my wrongful termination because of Arizona law, notwithstanding the facts in the matter. But because she took the time to carefully review the facts, she discovered that my ex-employer had not been properly paying overtime fo...r all the years I was there. The law only allowed us to recover two years of overtime plus an equal amount in damages, but Michelle filed the claim and professionally negotiated a full settlement before we ended up in arbitration. Everything about her was professional and comforting from the moment she walked into the conference room.

NEED AN EMPLOYMENT ATTORNEY? CONTACT MS. MATHESON!

I contacted Ms. Matheson regarding a separation agreement I was given to sign after a surprising termination. She was very thorough, went over all of the legal language in the agreement so I understood and could then decide whether to accept with my signature. She also explored all avenues of wrongf...ul termination and explained AZ. Right-To-Work status. She attempted to contact the employer's attorney while I was there to discuss a few requests that I had, but the attorney dodged any verbal communication. I would definitely use her services again.

Candid and Trustworthy

I interviewed a couple of attorneys prior to my hiring Michelle for my wrongful termination case. Michelle's practice advice and no interest in charging fees at every turn is what attracted me to hire her services. Her desire to start with a less bull dog approach was very insightful and it worked....

A marvelous person and an excellent lawyer!!!!!

When I was in need of a lawyer I called more than 40 lawyers and only one personally returned my call. Michelle has not forgotten that clients are people and her personal involvement is through the entire process. I found her to be extremely responsive! She never minded my many questions as we went t...hrough a long and emotional ordeal. I find her attention to detail and knowledge of employment law to be extraordinary and reassuring. I have no reservations in recommending her to anyone that has been wrongfully discharged or any type of employment case. After all is said and done I am in a better situation professionally than I was before I needed and employment lawyer. Much of this is due to the confidence I have in myself because of Michelle's counsel and personal commitment to me and my case. Thank you for standing with me and believing in me!
