Dawn Michelle Knepper

I was referred to Dawn by 4 different people. I live in the Bay Area and had a terrible experience with an employer in Orange County. I was a partner at a Management Consulting Firm with very powerful, sharp men at the top. Dawn took all of them on and very quickly and efficiently was able to negoti...ate a great package for me. It was also very complex considering the headquarters of the company are in Australia. She worked late hours to help negotiate across time zones. I am so grateful for her tenacity!

I can't say enough nice things about Dawn. I called (feeling very lost) after a sudden termination and she was so considerate, patient, and knowledgeable with me during my tough time. I think it speaks to her integrity that although I ended up not retaining her services long-term, she offered me ...a consultation after reading through my severance package and hearing my experience. She outlined her very transparent rates and process and what I could expect if I decided to continue. But the whole time I felt in control and very supported. I learned during this process she spent 20 years writing the severance agreements I was thinking of contesting so I felt in very good hands. Though I hope to never be abruptly let go again, if I am I will absolutely be retaining Dawn and forwarding anyone who needs assistance her way.

Dawn Knepper went to bat for me when the odds were against us. She used her employment law acumen, experience, and grit to achieve an outcome that was very favorable for me. I highly recommend trusting Dawn with your legal needs. The backstory...I engaged Dawn to review my employment contract with... a global hedge fund based in New York City. Dawn did much more than just review my contract -- she brought to my attention many issues that were much more favorable to my employer than to me. And she didn't stop there. When my employer pushed back against Dawn's proposed changes to my contract, Dawn spent the time to walk me through which issues were most important and she asked questions to get to know what i wanted. Dawn listened to my answers and personalized the process to get to an outcome that was much more favorable to me.
