Professional Result Oriented Lawyer

Jacob is very professional. I highly recommend if you want someone who cuts through the BS and gives it to you-and your opponent-straight. I was given a settlement that I know on my own I would not have gotten. Thank you Jacob.

A very professional and thorough lawyer

Mr. Jacob Sider is definitely the lawyer you want to hire for any issues regarding employment issues. He is not just thorough and professional but he genuinely cares about his clients. He will guide you in the right direction and tell you step by step the measures that needs to be taken for you to ha...ve the strongest case. I was devastated when I was fired from my job for discrimination but with Jacob's help and advice I have the tools I need to fight back and I am now going into mediation with the upper hand on my employers. If it were not for him I could not have done that on my own and I am so grateful. If Jacob Sider is not your lawyer you are missing out!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
