Great lawyer for a very complicated case.

I was on paid administrative leave for 10 months before hiring Harriet. My situation was very complex with hundreds of documents and emails showing what had happened. Harriet was able get her head around the situation in a short amount of time. Harriet understood school budgets and school laws. Wit...hin three weeks of hiring Harriet, she wrote a 16 page letter to the district and their attorney which convinced the district that they didn’t have a case. Harriet worked tirelessly on my behalf. I would get emails from her at all hours of the night and day. she was always available to answer my questions. She ultimately brokered an agreement that allowed me to return to work. Harriet isn’t much for pleasantries or small talk. If you are looking for an attorney that is going to counsel you and make you feel good, she probably isn’t for you. If you are looking for someone who knows the law and knows how to deal with employers and their attorneys, she is a great choice. I would wholeheartedly recommend Harriet.

Employment appeal and mediation case. "Highly recommended"

Excellent representation. Harriet Strasberg can be relied on to do the best job possible. I found her to be proactive, professional, and dedicated while working on my case. Harriet was in constant contact with me and highly involved in understanding the complexities resulting in a very good outcome.

Harriet Strasberg - an outstanding attorney!

Ms. Strasberg recently represented me in a case that took more than 2 and 1/2 years to conclude. Her explanations of the law and proceedings were easy to understand. She was in constant contact with me and, if needed, my criminal attorney. Throughout my ordeal, she got know me as a person, and ...the things for which I stood. She was always available for meetings, often traveling to my hometown, more than 2 hours away. She understood my case, and represented me well. The case was resolved, and I ultimately prevailed. To those in need of legal advice and/or representation, I would highly recommend Harriet Strasberg.
