Kathy Feldman: Employment Attorney Extraordinaire

Kathy Feldman is in the top 5% of employment attorneys I have retained over the past three decades. Kathy's approach is practical yet strategic. I have retained Kathy for advice, employment litigation, and high-profile investigations, and in every instance she exceeded my expectations with regard... to responsiveness, strategy, and outcome. I endorse Kathy without hesitation.

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.
