Review Alex Hartounian

I sought justice and Alex (and his wonderful Team) helped me get it.

There is a reason HLF specializes in Employment Law. While avoiding specifics I will say this Team of legal professionals set the standard very high. From the moment I used their website to submit my inquiry to present day I never felt anything but educated, cared about, and professionally guided through the scary waters of my specific case. I sought justice and Alex (and his wonderful Team) helped me get it. I feel like I had a voice now and that I have been properly compensated. Towards the end and several times during this experience I was flustered and bewildered. I was worried they would think I was stupid or annoying for asking so many questions, especially after what I had been though.... My self esteem was not very good at that time. But every email was answered with patience and kindness. Now I feel victorious and I am ready to make the world my oyster again. Thank you so much for everything!

Alex Hartounian won my case! When my own attorney chose to no longer represent me; and when I was exhausted from searching for a substitute attorney (because I couldn't find a new attorney to take my case), Alex stepped up to the plate. In the most humble, but tenacious manner, Alex refused to allow either of us to be bullied by my former employer, or the legal system. His intelligence, expertise, genuine concern, and an immeasurable big heart for his clients, makes Alex stand out from so many other attorneys who are only concerned with a "what's in it for me" mentality. If I had to do it all over again, I would hire Alex Hartounian to represent me.

Alex helped me with an employment predicament, where most attorneys were too afraid to take the time to attempt. I ended up getting more than I predicted and found him to be friendly yet professional.

I would highly recommend Alex to anyone. He was extremely knowledgeable of the technical issues of my case. He was also able to easily articulate and explain the legal issues, which facilitated our collaboration and led to a great outcome. I look forward to working with Alex again sometime soon.

Great lawyer, Great man!

I am feeling lucky to have known and worked with Alex Hartounian. In today’s materialist world and unlike many other attorneys, Alex Hartounian takes personal satisfaction from serving justice and helping others. His knowledge and expertise, personality, empathy, responsiveness and sense of responsibility are exemplary. I can’t imagine how I could have gone through the most distressful time of my life after being subject to most unjust and unfair treatment without his support. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a good attorney and a noble friend.
