Transition planning - helping me get fair treatment from my employer

Jim, was the consummate professional. He helped me negotiate a separation agreement which worked for me and my employer. He coached me and guided me on a path which averted legal action. My employer knew that I had an attorney because of the tone and expertise reflected in the documents. His knowled...ge and background is powerful. His integrity is reflected in all that he does. He gave excellent counsel and was interested in my case.

Simply outstanding. Results were beyond my expectations. Do not think twice about hiring Jim for work-related legal issues.

Jim Abrams is an outstanding human being and attorney. When Jim took my case; he advised me of all possible outcomes based on the facts at hand. His knowledge of the law may only be surpassed with his knowledge of the courts and of the Judges. His counsel completely prepared me for what became an ...emotionally charged and highly contested case. Jim was unwavering and stuck to the facts. Despite my previous employer's obstinacy and defiance which required multiple hearings before a tough judge; Jim shredded the hundreds of exhibits my previous employer produced on cross examination. Jim won my case! I read many of the previous posts here about Jim and there are common threads between them. Jim is compassionate. Jim is thorough. Jim is a talented attorney and has deep knowledge and experience in Law. Jim is an outstanding human being and attorney. Do not think twice about hiring Jim.

Best experience I've ever had with an attorney....

Jim is opposite of the typical attorney. His attention to the human factor and being able to dissect every aspect of the case is impeccable. His interaction with OSHA on our behalf was incredible and ended in the best possible outcome that we could have imagined. Jim's expertise in so many aspect...s of the law gave me peace of mind and I was able to continue to run my company knowing I had the best representative in my corner. At the end of the case, Jim is still on board helping us create better safety nets for my company. He will be an amazing asset for us as we move forward. So grateful.

Highly professional, sharp, clear and thorough.

Mr. Abrams is a pleasure to work with. He clearly and thoroughly explained the law as it pertained to our case. He then composed an excellent letter that made it clear to a fraudulent contractor that we meant business. I would highly recommend Mr. Abrams to anyone seeking justice.

An Outstanding Attorney

I am pleased to unconditionally recommend Jim Abrams. He went above and beyond to help me address a workplace bullying situation of which I was the target. Jim also reduced his fee to assure I did not interact with my employer without counsel. He cares about his clients.  He's  a gifted communicat...or and assisted me with a written submission that powerfully conveyed my position to my employer. I'd never hesitate to contact him again for any legal assistance I might need.
