Informative Session with Mr. Abrams

In our first meeting, James reviewed the context, scope, and possible next steps of my employment situation. He exhibited a thorough knowledge of his craft in a professional manner.

Very educated , Honest and Great sense of humor.

After contacting 4 to 5 different law firms before finding Mr.Abrams, I started to lose hope for my case. The first thing all of the other law firms would ask me, is if I had been terminated from my job or if I was still employed. After telling them I was still employed, it's like they did not want... to give me the time of day, and 2 of the law firms I contacted stated to me when I get fired maybe they could help me. When I first called Mr. Abrams to explain my situation he was very forthcoming and honest, which gave me a sense of relief from the harassment I was going through at work. I no longer work for that company and I feel the company will never let something like this happen again. The outcome was worth it all.

Excellent assist with a very favorable outcome

My employer mistreated me which put me in a bad spot, financially and emotionally. Jim was my first call after I sustained an injury and eventually the loss of my job. He accompanied me every step of the way, conveying to the employer that it was leaving us no choice other than a courtroom. I have a ...serious disorder and my employer tried to take advantage of me. We resolved my case after the employer concluded that Jim was not going to go away. I will remember and refer Jim unconditionally.

Jim Abrams: Exemplary in Employment Law

Jim stood by me in a very difficult employment situation. He aided me in transitioning from a terrible work environment to a place where I could regain my health. The Company eventually had to bring in a new lawyer to negotiate wth Jim due to Jim not budging with respect to our position. With Jim's t...enacity and a breadth of knowledge in employment law, there's nobody quite like him. I highly recommend Jim Abrams.

Wrongful Termination

Jim set down a successful strategy in addressing career-ending conduct on the part of my employer.The result was a good settlement which helped us avoid litigation. He was also generous with his time and charged us a fee which was a fraction of what a large firm would have imposed. Highly recommend J...im!
