Posted by Janice | February 15, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Employment & Labor

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.

Dedicated, trustworthy and committed to his clients

Mr. Abrams has helped make an overwhelming situation feel manageable; he has shown his dedication to my case over the past year and I know when I call him and ask a question he will respond. I finally found a lawyer who has my best interest and who I can totally trust. I have hired lawyers in the pa...st who were unreliable, didn’t follow through and I am so relieved to also have a lawyer who is passionate about justice and is determined to make sure that the company I was fired from unfairly pays for what they did to me.

Advocates for employees

I found myself needing an attorney during an unexpected professional transition. Jim agreed to represent me, even outside of his typical process. He was/is very passionate about the rights of employees and helped get more than what I was originally offered. In a world where there isn't always someone... to fight for the "little guy", I'm glad Jim was willing.

Absolutely an exemplary attorney

Jim goes above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. His responsiveness and communication is far beyond impressive. Clearly Jim knows the business. He also totes a great sense of humor and makes the whole process as seamless as possible. Stellar work Abrams!

Highly recommend Jim Abrams

We own a small business and were audited by the department of labor who determined we owed back taxes for unemployment insurance and penalties. We hired Jim Abrams and never looked back. Jim has been nothing short of amazing in his representation of us during our hearing which lasted several days. Th...is case endangered our business , family and livelihoods. At the conclusion of the case , the government's auditor stated that he had never faced anyone as good as Jim. We won that case and it was an incredible relief. I can recommend no one better than Jim Abrams.
