Great Lawyer / Real Person
I worked with Aaron and his team on an employment legal matter. While the dollars involved were big to me, other law firms did not seem interested as it wasn't a multi-million dollar case. Aaron took the time to listen (something he did at every meeting). He realized my case was straightforward and s...

Replied last February 16, 2025I am so pleased we gave you (not only the result you were looking for but ) the experience you described. It is easy for the veteran to forget how stressful and expensive lawsuits can be for the person who finds themselves in the only lawsuit of their lives. I do my best when working with people I respect, and I'm privileged to be a part of the lives of some fantastic people pursuing justice.

Phenomenal experience in a difficult situation
Aaron was incredibly helpful when I was surprised by my employer with an offer to resign or be terminated, with no written warning or documentation. He was fast to respond, gave me practical options to consider (options that no one had mentioned to me up to that point) and even responded quickly to ...

Above and Beyond
I was released from my company after 15 years for a very minor infraction of policy. Even though this is an at-will hire state, and I was advised that the company was within its rights to fire me, Aaron Rocke did not take no for an answer. He was tireless in his pursuit of a resolution, and kept me c...
