Spencer Nathan Thal

Spencer carefully reviewed all the facts, timeline of the events, and verified them before he agreed to take the case. Throughout the process , he clearly communicated what the process is and explained what my rights are. He was unbiased and professional.

Efficient work. Communication with him and his staff is very helpful .

I had a case that was involved discrimination at the work place. I turned over what I had for evidence to Spencer and his team and they worked thoroughly through it. They were there by my side when I needed help , they were fast to get back to me with responses. In the end they led this case to a great conclusion for myself. I would use them again and highly recommend them to anyone that needs a great legal team.

Spencer helped me through a very stressful employment issue. He was very attentive, responsive, and gave me excellent advice on how to navigate moving forward. I am so grateful to him for patiently listening, remaining objective and providing direct and honest answers. His knowledge of PERC law was extremely helpful, as well. He always put me at ease with the situation at hand. I cannot recommend him enough.

As a fellow attorney, I think I can tell when a lawyer knows what they’re doing. It’s clear to me that Spencer is great at what he does. I spent a long weekend at a labor convention where Spencer advised our team each step of the way. We needed quick answers to a lot of unpredictable issues including issues flowing from our own organizational documents. Spencer waded into the deep end of our issues with confidence and rapid, thoughtful answers. He developed creative solutions to complex problems and has a Spock-like ability to compute exactly what was needed. Would recommend.

I was injured in a car accident for which I was not responsible. I’m happy with the work and support and results by Spencer and his team. Thanks!

Enjoyed working with Spencer Thai in 2 cases. One an employment issue and another accident claim. Received clear consist communication and advice. Always willing to explain the details.

Spencer is very compassionate, knowledgeable and responsive. He represented me in a discrimination case and was able to get me a favorable severance package. Spencer taught me how to stand up for myself and articulate the issues I faced at work. This led to rising above the discrimination I faced and gaining my personal power back.

Spencer and team brilliantly navigated the nuances of my labor law dispute with an employer headquartered outside of the US. The employer continued to operate with impunity until Spencer notified them of their less than legal practices. Spencer negotiated a substantial settlement that provided closure for me and left my former team with a much better working environment. My many thanks for the diligence Spencer and team showed while working late hours, across time zones to bring resolution as swiftly as possible.

I consulted with Spencer on issues I was facing with my employer due to violation of FMLA protections, which subsequently turned into harassment. Spencer did a great job of explaining my rights, potential additional violations that the employer may have committed and possible options. He was not motivated by billing me for more hours than absolutely necessary and advised that I could represent case myself with my employer with the information he had given me. However, my employer insisting on working with a lawyer directly and Spencer was able to find a favorable resolution for me.

Spencer and his team helped me through a difficult time. He understood the issues and we collaborated together to find resolve. He showed empathy and compassion but was always upfront and honest with me. Spencer will be my first call if I ever need an attorney again. I am grateful that I found him and his firm.

Short of the clouds parting, revealing a sky full of unicorns, rainbows, butterflies and bluebirds singing, Spencer Thal negotiated and delivered an exceptionally outstanding separation agreement between myself and my employer. Upon hearing of the agreed negotiated settlement, I do think I caught a glimmer of a few one horned winged beautiful somethings gracing the afternoon's bright skies...at least that is exactly how I felt as the dark clouds that have been lingering in my head, mind and body for over a year now suddenly did part and evaporate entirely and it is Spencer's experience, skill, clarity and competence in matters of employment law that brought this to bear. My employer could have continued down the path to complete my termination (as unjustified as I felt it was) but Spencer felt we should make the effort to negotiate a separation agreement that would be more favorable to me and the outcome I ultimately desired. What he proposed was more than I expected and to my astonishment the employer agreed to all the terms he presented! Aside from the spectacular end result, I have always found Spencer to be amazingly responsive to any inquiry I have made of him. And that is huge, as hours can seem like days when one is on the razors edge as I have been. I believe Spencer had not only my best employment outcome at heart, but also was specifically sensitive to the financial aspects involved in working towards a beneficial outcome. I say this because on a number of occasions he advised me in ways to reduce my costs and I do believe he had my financial well-being in mind as well throughout this entire process. This case wasn't about some big settlement that an attorney could secure for a client, and everybody cuts a fat hog etc. This was simply about working with an individual to secure the best possible outcome in a rather very sticky mess of a situation. A number of attorneys I contacted passed on my case. In the end I feel very fortunate now that they did. And I mean some pretty high-profile well-known Employment Law firms. Spencer, on the other hand, listened to me, was quite frank with his overall sense of my chances of retaining my employment, and yet he decided to take my case anyways with the goal of obtaining the best separation agreement possible....and that's exactly what he did. I could not be happier. I only wish we had asked for a chocolate cake with vanilla coconut frosting for my last day in the office! I'm sure he could have delivered on that as well, but I'll take the unicorns and blue sky and rainbows! I cannot thank Spencer Thal enough and I feel like I can now get on with my life as I would have it. Thank you Spencer!!

Based on his incredible experience, I went with Spencer to help advise me on an employment issue. He was very thorough, and extremely responsive. It's hard when you face the unknown in your employment and having someone who is responsive and knowledgeable is really helpful.

Spencer’s in-depth experience and knowledge around employment law was critical to the success of my case. He handled my situation with grace and was able to articulate all of the options before me so I could make an educated decision. Without his assistance, I would’ve not gotten the result I did. His responsiveness is really what blew me away. He didn’t hesitate to respond to all of my inquiries and was patient with all of the questions I had. Grateful for his guidance during a very challenging time. Will recommend him and his firm to others!

Spencer Thal took my employment lawsuit to trial and won! I called Spencer about a year ago because I was facing gender based wage discrimination at work. I told him what I knew and shared some documents with him, and he immediately took my case. He filed suit against my employer and began the process of collecting evidence. He deposed a key witness who revealed information that helped my case, and also conducted extensive discovery, which again yielded documents that greatly helped my case. Despite an offer of a small settlement, we decided to take the case to trial, and we won! Words cannot express how I felt when a jury of my peers decided in my favor, and I have Spencer to thank for that. He got me justice! Spencer was an excellent advocate for me from start to finish. He truly believed in the validity of my case, treated me with respect, and used his years of experience as an employment lawyer to successfully navigate the trial. The judge listened to his arguments and made decisions in our favor multiple times. He was able to get key evidence admitted despite efforts from opposing counsel to keep it away from the jury. He caught witnesses for the defense in lies and was able to impeach them on the stand. And finally, after the trial was over and we had won, he secured an agreement from opposing counsel not to appeal. My only regret is that I did not call Spencer 3 years ago, when my problems at work began. If you suspect that your rights are being violated, I strongly encourage you to contact Spencer Thal.
