Lawyer

Ms. Guzman was very professional and able to answer my questions thoroughly. She was also very polite and made me feel at ease and able to talk to her about my case. I am glad I went with Attorneys for Workers’ rights.

Gracias Dios mío por la abogada que elegiste para representarme.

Cuando uno tiene un problema legal es muy difícil saber a qué abogado recurrir por ayuda, sobre todo porque al momento de elegir un abogado se debe buscar uno que sea especialista en el caso específico que nos toca enfrentar en ese momento. En mis 7 años de haber trabajado en restaurantes yo nunca h...abía tenido la necesidad de buscar un abogado pero cuando comenzó la pandemia necesité la ayuda de un especialista en Workers’ Compensation, porque estaba seguro de que mis derechos de trabajador se habían violado. Entre mis amigos y mis compañeros de trabajo no encontré la referencia que buscaba, tuve que buscar un abogado por mi propia cuenta, con la incertidumbre lógica de no saber en manos de quién quedaría mi caso y sobre todo qué cuidado se le iba a dar a mi caso. Busqué en el internet y en este momento estoy seguro de que Dios me ayudó porque puso mi caso en las manos de la abogada Marcia Guzman de la firma Attorneys for Workers’ Rights, quienes me demostraron, tanto ella como la firma que representa, tener un profesionalismo para atender mi caso y una atención hacia mi persona realmente fuera de serie. Mi inglés deja mucho que desear, pero siempre estuvo en comunicación conmigo en español, además de la abogada Guzman, una secretaria o paralegal de nombre Lidia que me tenía al tanto de la situación del caso en todo momento, tanto por teléfono, texto o email. Hoy en día mi caso ya se resolvió mediante un arreglo con los dueños del restaurante, que yo considero justo para compensar por las violaciones a mis derechos. Gracias Dios mío por la abogada que elegiste para representarme.

Employment Case

Ms. Guzman and her team were great! They helped me figure out my options to make my claims with my ex-employer, kept me informed of what was happening, and even gave me a referral for worker's comp to help me even get more money! I'm super please and now I can move forward and put this behind me.

Settled Case

I would highly recommend Ms. Marcia Guzman and the team at Attorneys for Worker's Rights. Although COVID-19 came as a surprise it didn't stop Ms. Guzman and the team from settling my case.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
