Sharon Rachel Vinick

Recently I needed some advice on a delicate matter regarding my employment and personal situation. I was laid off while pregnant and I wanted to figure out the best way to handle the situation. I wanted to be upfront with my potential future employers but at the same time I didn't want to decrease m...y chances of getting hired due to upcoming family leave. I feel lucky to have found Sharon through a neighbor. She was very knowledgable but what is also very important, she was a super nice person to consult with. Sharon listened to my concerns very carefully and provided information on all aspects I was looking for. While I hope I never need a lawyer, I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

I was having a really tough time with an employment situation and I was at a loss for what to do. I tried contacting several firms and was not able to talk to anyone knowledgeable. Sharon took the time to review all of the details related to my situation and talked with me for nearly an hour. At th...e end of the day, she made some excellent recommendations and really put my mind at ease!

After being highly recommended to me I reached out to Sharon Vinick for advice on parting ways with my employer. The situation was very tense and I was certain I would walk away with nothing. While speaking to Sharon she explained my rights in a clear, calm and professional manner. She explained m...y options and the possible consequences of each one. Her confidence gave me the confidence I needed to negotiate a good severance package and bring closure to a very unpleasant employment relationship. I was fortunate my situation was resolved quickly but I would not have hesitated to hire Sharon to represent me if things got ugly.

Sharon was one of three lawyers referred to me regarding a termination from a Silicon Valley job. I believed there was age discrimination and sexual harassment issues. Sharon was referred to me by two distinguished employment law school professors. Sharon listened intently to my claims, she did no...t dissuade me from sharing the opinions I had received from my legal friends and she crafted a strategy and goal immediately. When the other side tried to throw cold water on our claims and my credibility, Sharon stood by me and asked for more details or to fill in blanks that helped support our position. Like any negotiation, we asked for x and were both very happy with the settlement that everyone agreed upon. Without hesitation I would recommend Sharon and her firm.
