Brian and Dorota

I used this firm on the peak of the pandemic March 2020 to be exact. For my case of my previous job I let them know what happened and were really interested. Must I say I went through 8 different firms and no one seemed like they really cared to follow up but this firm THIS FIRM HERE!!!! went out the...re way Dorota was the lawyer that helped me through it all. She assure me that I get paid everything that was owed to me from the company. It was an 8 month process really patient about it all. The firm brought up a lot of dirt that I myself never knew so Dorota did everything in her power Brian as well they both assure me if I don’t get paid they won’t either but they made it happen. I HIGHLY recommend this firm they keep you updated on everything. Nothing is left unsaid everything is brought to the table. By all means do your research but don’t pass up these guys I’m super satisfied with them

Brian R. Short - The Right Choice.

I can highly recommend Brian. He helped me with negotiating a severance package with my former employer. Brian was able to double the amount they were willing to give me. He is very professional, courteous, has a great attention to detail and answers your questions in a timely manner. I truly felt be...ing in good hands. I will use his services again, should the need arise.

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.
