Alan Adelman

Alan is very knowledgeable when it comes to employment law. His sincere compassion for his client and their needs come first. He was adept at understanding the technical aspects of my case (employment overtime), Alan Adelman provided everything I hoped to find in an attorney: He always returned every... call and e-mail immediately, and was generous with his time .

About 2 years ago, I took step that I never would have contemplated - - seeking restitution from my employer. This was an agonizing decision. I had worked in the corporate world, for two sizable companies, over a 30 year period. I had been the type of person who generally loved my job, my employer..., and life in general. I had heard of employees suing their employers, but honestly had always viewed those stories with some suspicion. And then I found myself thrown, against my will, into a situation where I was humbled by that suspicion. It's different when it happens to you. When I called Alan, I told him that I wanted to be only absolutely honest. Not sure of how the process works and unsure of attorneys in general, I didn't want to ever be pressured to say or 'not say' anything in order to sway the view of my case. I told him that it was critical to me that my case be 'Blessed by God.' It turned out that I needed not say any such thing to Alan. I don't remember exactly what I had been expecting, but now I cannot imagine an attorney with more integrity. First of all, Alan spent quite some time with me going over the situation and a lot of details before deciding to take on the case. He was alway extremely honest and up front with me. He encouraged me to be truthful always. He worked very very hard. He and I, over the 2-year period, spoke often, met often, and communicated openly. I can't recall one time where I felt out of the loop. He held me to a very high level of work and responsiveness, and he held up his end well. We were truly a team, guided by common principles, and completely in sync every step of the way. Alan also served as a wonderful support when my spirits were down. This was an agonizing experience for me and a very difficult 2 years. Whenever I felt defeated or exhausted, he was there to remind me of what this was about - to encourage me personally. I told him at least once that, win or lose, I truly felt that he was a blessing to me. I would absolutely recommend Alan to anyone going through a tough and difficult employer lawsuit. He has such integrity that, if he choses to take the case, you can know that he believes in you. But be ready to be absolutely truthful, to work hard, to meet all deadlines, and to be present from beginning to end. It will work out!

Prior to initially seeing Alan, I had read a few reviews, was extremely encouraged by them, and hoped that reality was as good. It is! Alan is a great lawyer!! He helped me through a very trying and stressful time in my professional career. I did not have a lot of familiarity with the law and was... quite intimidated by it. Alan's knowledge, understanding, and willingness to explain were invaluable. He is responsive, caring and takes time to understand his clients. He is analytical and detailed, and able to communicate effectively to lay persons. At all times he was honest and fair. I was informed through all negotiations, and in a timely, efficient manner. I highly recommend Alan.

Alan was very attentive and knowledgeable on the subject matter. He kept me informed of the process and any responses received from the other party. He was also very honest in his interpretation of the case and what the possible outcome could be if we followed his recommendations always giving me the... choice of making the decision. He was able to obtain a settlement in a very short time and with the added benefit of changing the companies guidelines and procedures to ensure that this situation would not happen to someone else. I would strongly recommend him as a lawyer and as a person of honor and integrity.
