W. Anthony Aguinaldo

I got a call back from this attorney and from the outset, he seemed intent on dismissing me and my interest in getting legal counsel. He spoke down to me, argued with me and essentially tried to make it as if I knew nothing about the claims (violation of privacy, harassment and slander). When he chos...e to immediately conclude that there were no damages due to slander (after saying that harmful speech is only actionable in employment if it's physically threatening or sexual harassment, which is simply not true), I decided I should just get off the phone as quickly as possible. His dismissive comments were belittling, which was wild given that he didn't seem to care that I'm law-trained and thus knew when he wasn't being complete in his opinions. Additionally, it was just completely inappropriate. If someone is calling because of an issue with employment, it's likely they're having a real hard time. This attorney had ZERO compassion or empathy and seemed more intent on telling me why I absolutely DIDN'T have a viable claim. I would've preferred he just say he couldn't take on my case rather than make me feel terrible about myself and hopeless in my situation. If you are looking for an attorney with a heart, I would avoid this one.

I called Mr. Aguinaldo yesterday and he was beyond gracious and helpful. He spent time with me on the phone and never felt rushed. He answered all my questions thoroughly, provided great insight and transparency. He was very honest, upfront and patient. I appreciate all the advice and help he gave me...!!! Thank you so much Mr. Aguinaldo!!!

Anthony took time to listen to me. He gave me options and told me to check other law firms to make sure I was comfortable using his firm. I made the right choice, in the end he won my case. I was considered a whistleblower and my employer retaliated against me and tried to fire me. I am grateful for ...his help, knowledge, and honesty throughout the case. I highly recommend him over any other law firm!
