Hurt at work and fired after 28 years of service.

I did not know where to turn when I was hurt at work and fired from my job after 28 years. I did not know what to do my pension was gone and my medical benefits were now terminated. I was lost and did not know anything about the laws in California. I talked to many other attorneys, but a friend reco...mmended Nancy Abrolat. I’m really glad he did. Nancy Abrolat and her staff were able to provide the legal assistance and guidance to get my retirement reinstated, provide a great settlement for retaliation and wrongful termination and save my home. I would sign my name, however I cannot do so because of the settlement agreement, it would be a mistake for anyone not to consider Nancy Abrolat & Associates pc. God Bless Nancy Abrolat & Associates pc.

I had a claim for overtime and Nancy Abrolat did an outstanding job for me. I happily recommend her to anyone.

Nancy recently helped me with a wage and hour claim that I had against my employer. Although they said that I did not get overtime or breaks because I was salary, Nancy explained that whether you are salary or not does not matter, it is what your job duties are. She was able re recover for all the ...overtime hours I worked, missed breaks and other amounts. And she was really great to work with. We worked as a team and her stall is great, too.

Nancy Abrolat always put my interests first and worked with me to understand my goals and then incorporated strategies for goals

I was nervous about hiring an attorney, so I got several referrals and met with each one. I am happy that I selected Nancy Abrolat. So many lawyers are known for caring more about the money they are going to make from their client than about their client. Nancy Abrolat was not like that at all - ...she was the opposite. She always put my interests first. Even though she was helping me with a wrongful termination/whistle blower case, she often asked me at various stages what my goals were, not just for the lawsuit, but for my career going forward and took that into account as we pursued my case. I also really enjoyed her staff, who were always very kind and helpful. I recommend Nancy Abrolat.

"I endorse this lawyer. Nancy is a compassionate human being. Her compassion toward people directly translates into her work and how she represents each client. Coupled with compassion comes Nancy's immense knowledge in employment law litigation. I look up to her as an attorney because she is able to represent individuals who are in the worst position in life, after losing a job for all the wrong reasons, in the best way possible: she works to obtain justice using the client's voice."

Unknown lawyer | Jun 23

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"Nancy is adept at analyzing even the most complex and multifaceted fact patterns and then articulating that legal analysis to the jury in a way that is engaging, easy to relate to, and persuasive. It comes as no surprise that flowing from the exceptional results that she achieves for her clients, Nancy is consistently sought after by those seeking the services of one of the top employment law practitioners in the Los Angeles area. Her experience and impressive record of success speaks for itself. But perhaps equally remarkable is Nancy's ability to ensure that each of her clients is comfortable with the litigation process. Nancy recognizes that with clients unfamiliar with litigation, events such as depositions, mediations, and trials can seem daunting and intimidating. However, her individualized approach not only addresses each client's need to be informed and prepared, but also enables them to feel more confident in the process."
