Wrongful termination - discrimination

I highly recommend Aaron Olsen. He is a bright, knowledgeable, dedicated and caring attorney. He listened and clearly understood the devastating effects of a wrongful termination that I experienced. With professionalism, expert skill and compassion, he accepted my case and represented me to a succes...sful conclusion. He had incredible patience with me and my husband during the process, never hesitating to give us the time needed to explain the process. He always remained so open and approachable and supportive. His honesty, integrity and dedication to doing "the right thing" was inspiring. He researched and investigated thoroughly all the different aspects affecting this case, ensuring a truthful and honest representation of my issues. Both my husband and I felt totally supported during the months from the first contact to the conclusion of this case. He is a positively unique attorney with the perfect blend of excellent expertise in his craft and true caring for those clients that he chooses to represent. In addition to my husband and I highly recommending Aaron Olsen, we also feel we can call him a friend. Despite the challenges and suffering we experienced from the wrongful termination, we feel blessed to have met Aaron, worked with him and having him in our lives.

Associations Discrimination Case

In October of 2014 I was terminated from my employer at one of the states biggest healthcare maintenance organizations due to my association with my son who was becoming an increasingly challenging and costly patient for them. I knew that this was wrong but I needed to explain my side of the story t...o someone who would be able to help. I was referred over to Haeggquist & Eck LLP, by a friend who is an attorney who had nothing but amazing things to say about them. I gave them a call and was scheduled for an appointment with them within a week. When I got there I met with Aaron who I was referred to initially and got down to the specifics of my case and the details surrounding it. This was a terrible and emotional time for me due to the loss of my 12 year employment and at the same time dealing with the heartache that my son was still suffering several different health complications. The firm was able to accept my case and we moved forward. During the time that it took for my case to resolve the entire staff at the office was in constant contact with me and walked us through all of the legal hurdles that we had to overcome to get to the finish line. The entire team demonstrated throughout the case that they were there to help my case succeed. Each time I was in the office it felt like I was entering the home of a close friend or family member. They treat everyone with such respect that I feel not every attorney does. I have to say that this industry does have some individuals that give it a bad name but Aaron and Alreen make sure that the same is not perceived in their firm. During my two week long trial they were extremely helpful through the many daily challenges that it brought and put on a positive attitude through it that helped me get to the end of it. Ultimately I prevailed in my case and I have them to thank for it. Haeggquist & Eck is the best choice for anyone looking for an employment attorney and if they're able to help in any way they will. They are here to be an advocate for people who can't do it for themselves and they sure do an Amazing job. If you select them as your legal team you will not be disappointed!!

It was my pleasure to work with Aaron

It was my pleasure to work with Aaron Olsen. He has this ability to quickly grasp the key point in what you are saying. He has the patience to hear your point of view and the ability to present to you legal and analytical arguments in a positive and understandable way, without offending you. Thank yo...u Aaron.

Recommendation for Aaron Olsen

Mr. Olsen was very helpful in a very important class action case. We would have lots of questions and he answered them! He also kept us informed along the way until the case was settled. I would definitely recommend Aaron Olsen if anyone had a similar case.
