Siddharth Jhans

I’m grateful to Siddharth Jhans for achieving a positive outcome and for concluding my complicated employment situation. He successfully negotiated with my former employer’s counsel to win a 50% increase of monetary severance, as well as enhancements of non-monetary protections, under both Californi...a and New York employment laws. Siddharth is the nicest guy to have on your good side. He’s assertive and respectful during negotiation with adverse employers. Polite, intelligent, thoughtful, informed, realistic, and tech-friendly begin to describe his honest professional disposition. Siddharth overcame strong resistance and won concessions from my former employer on all crucial concerns for me. He succeeded well after I first tried on my own and after prior attorneys felt there was insufficient evidence to pursue my valid claims. My unique situation was being a California-based employee who worked in multiple states for employer headquartered in New York. My at-will employment contract was based on New York law while California employee protections also applied. The initial severance proposal from my employer referred to both California and New York laws. Even more complicated, third party ligation required my continuing cooperation as witness to help defend my employer. Therefore, I needed to find expertise for both states’ employment law to understand terms, and to protect my rights. Fortunately, Siddharth is bar admitted in both California and New York to practice law, which perfectly aligned to my reality. During our initial phone introduction, I appreciated his confident all-American phone voice, which resonated self-assurance to negotiate with a fearless New York employer. Siddharth demonstrates genuine personal empathy for the unique challenges facing someone whose career was interrupted. He only represents employees; therefore, he avoids conflict-of-interests with employers. I appreciate that his professional fees are reasonable, his billable time is efficient, and he offered a time estimate to prepare my budget expectation. I highly recommend Siddharth for his effective counsel to solve difficult employment issues. I look forward to keeping in touch and to reviewing with him future new employment offers.
