A well experience attorney in employment issues

I used google's search engine to find an attorney to help with my unemployment benefits. My former employer contested my eligibility for benefits and I felt I needed an attorney to help me in my hearing. After speaking with 2 other firms and realizing I was in store for as much as $350/hour, I call...ed Mr. Abrams. Jim indicated he charged a $500 flat fee and the other firms were comedians. I am glad I went with the less expensive option as this hearing was a routine one. Jim was well prepared and asked the right questions. He is not the type of person who responds to every email or phone call but he has this down to a science so trust him. He eventually makes sure you are well prepared and eases the anxiety. I would recommend hiring him if your budget is tight or you just need a little extra help.

BEST MONEY I HAVE SPENT IN ALONG TIME

My last employer was fighting my unemployment insurance, Jim spoke to me as a peer not as a client. Jim did everything he said and understood the unemployment laws like the back of his hand. I would of paid double for his help if I could of afforded it.

GREAT ATTORNEY! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!

Jim is working on a wrongful termination case for me regarding a Facebook posting. My former employer denied my unemployment, but Jim helped me win the appeal. This is only the beginning of how he will help me win my case with my former employer.

Amazing man to work with!

Mr. Abrams is an incredible attorney with knowledge to get the job done and done well. The results he has achieved for me have been nothing short of amazing. He continues to guide me in the process and has my best interests in mind. I would recommend him to any body (and have) that needs to win a... case!!

Compassion

Not only did Mr. Abrams handle my wrongful termination case, he gave me the compassion and encouragement to move through the emotional aftermath of employment loss. I am thankful everyday he represented me. I would highly recommend this attorney if need for representation in the employment field aris...es!
