AMAZING Attorney!!!

We retained Frank's services to fight against a school district regarding discrimination, harassment, and bullying. If you are looking for an AMAZING attorney look no further!! Frank is very compassionate and really shows a true concern for his clients and he will not stop until everyone is satisfie...d. Frank will fight for your rights no matter what and he is a great attorney with tons of experience in every aspect of law. If you are looking for an attorney who truly cares about you and who will look out for you every step of the way please contact Frank immediately because you will not be disappointed! If I could give Frank 100 stars I would but unfortunately it only goes up to 5. A++++ Attorney

100% recommendation

I called Frank regarding a “possible” discrimination case. He took the time to explain the pros, cons, positive and negatives that would be involved moving forward. I was very impressed and genuinely thankful that he took the time that he did with me. Obviously he is committed to his/our/your concern...s. Not sure if my case warrants the next step, but if it does, I will feel comfortable and confident having Frank represent my case.

Fantastic lawyer!

Finding a good lawyer online is difficult; you want someone who will listen to you, someone you can trust, someone who will represent you with passion, confidence and determination. Frank is that someone! He represented myself , as well as 2 other women, in a sexual harassment and discrimination laws...uit against Stellar Dental Care. When I met Frank for our consultation, I was amazed at how intently he listened to what I had to say, how he did not make light of what had happened to me, and how he made me feel at ease so quickly. I had spoken to another lawyer prior to meeting with Frank, and that lawyer made me feel weak, small and unimportant. From the first time I met Frank, I had a feeling that he was going to be a fantastic lawyer, and boy was that feeling spot on!. Frank took the time to listen to every detail that had happened, was very sympathetic to my situation, explained everything I had questions about, and did not sugar coat anything. He is very straight forward, which I appreciate. He explained every potential avenue this lawsuit could take, which really helped to prepare me, both mentally and emotionally for the road ahead. This lawsuit was very emotionally draining, but Frank was there for me; whether it was me needing an ear to vent to out of frustration, a question I had about the legal process, or making sure I was handling the stress of this process with as much ease as possible. We had to go to trial, and I was a nervous wreck beforehand. Frank took the time to meet with me before the trial, to calm me down, to answer ANY questions I had, and really made me feel confident and strong going into my testimony. Knowing I had to testify in front of the people who treated me horribly, the people who allowed the sexual harassment to continue and get worse for months and months, was the most nauseating feeling in the world. BUT, Frank made me feel at ease as soon as I sat in the chair. He is an amazing litigator; he exposed Stellar Dental and their lies. Every witness they called lied about one thing or another, and Frank exposed the lies, over and over! He was nothing short of amazing! I was in awe at how fantastic he was in the court room. He also kept me informed during every step of the process, whether through phone calls, text messages, or emails. We had several meetings at his office, and each time, I left feeling better than I did when I walked in. Frank and his office manager, Christa, really care about their clients. We (myself and the 2 other women) won the lawsuit, and the joy that I heard in both Frank and Christa's voices when I spoke to them after just finding out we had won, was such a great feeling. I would recommend Frank to anyone and everyone! Thank you Frank, thank you!

Professional, knowledgable and kind

I hired Frank because he was knowledgeable, encouraging, professional and kind during a time when my world was being turned upside down. I have been a professional for over 20 years, and have had a flawless work record. In my line of work I am often asked to defend decisions I make based on integrit...y and ethics as well as established Federal Regulations. My case was founded on what i thought to be inappropriate behavior by administration. Harassment and discrimination quickly ensued when I refused to violate federal regulations by documenting things that were not true. There were also blatant violations of the Federal Labor laws, including what very much appeared to be retaliation for simply doing my job, and doing it thoroughly per regulatory guidelines. This case quickly became multifaceted because of the complexity of the issues at hand. Frank didn't abandon me, but helped to guide and navigate me in the right direction. Frank always listened and gave me sound advice. He never once questioned my sincerity and he validated how this was truly affecting many aspects of my life. In fact Frank, at one time called and asked me if i could come to his office for an impromptu meeting...the reason he asked me to come down was to talk face to face and express his concern for my well being. That in itself speaks volumes, since it it near impossible to keep most lawyers on the phone for more than several minutes, all the while they are minimizing your feelings and genuine concern for the issues at hand. I thank god that this was not the case with Frank, especially given the emotional state on was in and the very real fear of losing my job for performing only the duties that were asked from me. This case quickly became multifaceted because of the complexity of the issues at hand. Frank didn't abandon me, but helped to guide and navigate me in the right direction. He was very proactive, which I witnessed first hand by sitting in his office while he called several different contacts in an effort to help me facilitate some things that had seemingly come to a halt. Frank was effective in getting my message across and results were delivered based on his calls. Frank is a very down to earth. I find that he is a wonderful person to talk with when you feel the sky is falling. He is always optimistic and sees the glass full. This the type of person that people need when enduring a crisis situation. I trust him wholeheartedly to give me the best advice with each ongoing hurdle we have and will cross. There is never a time that I call frank hysterical about something that he doesn't respond with "what can i do to help?" What would make you feel better right now, you don't deserve to feel this way" He has not only said it, but he has done it. And He is continuing to defend me with confidence against an extremely large corporate company. If you want a lawyer that will listen, tell you exactly how it is, is trustworthy and sympathetic in your time of need, I would recommend Frank to anyone.
