Employee rights case - lost wages

Mr. Peters represented me in a case against my former employer whereby we were able to recover a portion of wages lost following my layoff. The case was mediated. I felt Mr. Peters did an excellent job explaining the law to me, preparing for the case and negotiating on my behalf. Overall I was ver...y pleased with the outcome of the case and how Mr. Peters represented me.
