Posted by Hannah | April 18, 2013 | Wrongful Termination

Excellent Employment Lawyer!

I went to N. Fernandez based off of a recommendation from a friend. I'm glad I did! He was responsive, knowledgable, and personable. I found him committed to helping me through a rough situation at work involving wrongful termination and failure to pay overtime. I'd recommend him to my friends. H...e's a talented employment lawyer!

Excellent and knowledgeable with a thorough understanding of employment law

Neville really knows employment law inside and out. He has a lot of experience from his prior experience working for a big firm. He was responsive to my questions regarding my harassment claim, getting back to me within just a matter of hours.

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.
