Great communicators, great advice transparent with fees!

This firm has been great! I needed help with a difficult situation. Michelle and Cindy, as well as their staff communication was always prompt, candid and transparent ! They were supportive and respectful of my decisions, which I greatly appreciated. Michelle and I agreed that something else was... going on and doing a Cease & Desist Letter would escalate the situation which I did not want.

Excellent Employer Side Employment Attorney

My client had an issue with his employer not wanting to provide a separate defense in a harassment claim. Cindy came through to provide expert advice for the client. She is a true professional.

Knows her stuff!

It was a pleasure working with her. Cynthia was organized, spotted every issue, and devised a sound strategy to deal with each of them. I can't wait to work with her again.

"I first met Cynthia at a TEN (The Esquire Network) meeting. I heard her introduce herself and talk about her practice and her passion for representing employers. What she had to say resonated with me because I could see that she was speaking both from personal experience and from the heart. She spoke eloquently about how her parents' business and personal lives suffered from lawsuits. It is important to hear this side because so often the public only hears from the plaintiff or employee side. The next time I saw Cynthia was when she gave an hour talk at the Beverly Hills Bar Association on creating and successfully running a vitual office. I then sought her out and recommended her as a speaker in other networking groups, and in my own online lawyers networking group. Since then, Cynthia and I have become friends. Cynthia is highly qualified and extremely passionate about her work. I recommend her for anyone seeking representation on the employers side of employment law."
