Mixed Feelings

They are honest about their approach to cases and how they represent their client's interest - they won't pursue something just to get paid when they thought something wouldn't help me, transparent about costs and expectations, usually timely - communications and documents that need to be filed meet ...deadlines and don't sit, aware, know the labor law, and know how to comply within the employer labor code system. Initially Ada and her plan for my representation made my life easier. But then her customer service became terrible and she nor her partner alerted me of my full breadth of options, what they had the ability to do for me, and what I would need to find a different firm for. This risked my employment and my statute of limitations. I only recommend this attorney to someone like me who has already had an attorney, who is good at critical thinking, and who has evidence a mile high. This is not a good attorney for someone in trauma who struggles to focus or to explain themselves.

$525 for a consultation is crazy

This practice offers extremely costly consultations ($525/hr) for junior lawyers. I talked to at least 3-4 other attorneys who offered complimentary consultations, 2 of whom told me never to pay for a consultation as it indicates a firm that uses it as part of their business model because they can't ...drum up enough clients. $525/hr for a consultation is also just an absurd amount when most local employment lawyers are charging $300-350/hr when they actually work on your case.

Waste of money

I was charged a very substantial fee to review a short employment contract. That my current employer wanted me to sign. The only advice I received from Ada was “this contract is unfair”. No legal advice, no real insight, just what we both knew already before the fee was paid “this contract was unfair...”. Complete waste of time and money mostly my money.

Hi, because this is a public forum, I am limited to what I can say in response to your comments. What I can say is that we would have went through the contract and pointed out all the terms that I believe was unfair for you. I assume that if my assessment was that the contract was fair, you wouldn't feel the way you do. However, I provided my honest assessment and opinion, and not all employment contracts that employers provide are fair.

Poor representation

I contacted and retained this firm to assist me to obtain justice in my workplace harassment case. This firm totally gave no real communication and eventually failed me assisting a hottie justice in my case. I strongly recommend you not consult or bring this firm if you need justice.

Hi, I believe I know who this is, and we've had extensive conversations about why we are not representing you. I am not allowed to make any detailed comments here because it's protected by attorney-client privilege, so it's a disadvantage for me on this public forum. However, I will note that you know exactly why we are not representing you. We maintain our integrity in the work that we do and the clients that we decide to represent. We fully stand by our decisions on whether we believe in our clients and their cases. We wish you the best of luck in your matter.

Employment & Labor advice session

Wasn't satisfied. I don't believe the attorney demonstrated her knowledge about my specific case which involves M&A, Employment contract, and immigration issues even after sending one page document summarizing the query. Attorney kept saying I need to look into all the documents before I can give... you further advice. This is the first time I used Avvo Advisor and I was very disappointed.

I am sorry to hear this. Avvo Advisor is a third-party service that is not provided through our firm or me. As I mentioned when we spoke, my practice areas do not include mergers & acquisitions or immigration. As such, it would be improper and not in your best interest for me to give you advice in areas I do not practice. Hence, I informed you to ask Avvo to provide you with another attorney that better suits your needs. I hope you were able to find the help you needed.
