Jim Abrams review - navigating employment contracts

Jim was responsive and well-versed in Employment laws. He took the time to speak with me so I was comfortable with his recommendations. If you need guidance navigating employment contracts, Jim can help.

Highly recommend

I contacted seven different law firms to get help negotiating a severance agreement. Most firms were too busy or unwilling to help because I wasn’t pursuing a wrongful termination claim. Jim was responsive and thorough and helped me achieve a satisfactory renegotiation. I appreciated his solid gui...dance and depth of experience. Thanks, Jim!

Severance Agreement Negotiation

I highly recommend Jim Abrams for anyone needing legal guidance during employment transitions. He reviewed my severance agreement and provided invaluable advice for negotiations. Thanks to his expertise and support, I was able to successfully negotiate a much-improved agreement. Jim is professional, ...responsive, and truly dedicated to achieving the best outcomes for their clients. I couldn’t be more grateful!

Dr. Abrams is amazing!

Our daughter, this past month, retained Dr. Abrams to review her "out of state" Employment Contract. Dr. Abrams provided "down to earth" / "common sense" legal guidance. Unlike other legal counsel, our daughter could speak in layman's language, and Dr. Abrams responded quickly and effectively. Our da...ughter asked Dr. Abrams if it was OKAY to allow her parents to participate in discussions, and Dr. Abrams was more than pleased to allow Mom and Dad to join in discussions. As a family, we can not say enough positives about working with Dr. Abrams on our daughter's new Employment Contract. Donna & Pat

Employment Contract Concerns

I had many concerns regarding an employment contract. Mr. Abrams went through the contract with me line by line, and explained all discrepancies found and answered all of my questions. Without his guidance, I wouldn't have been able to renegotiate my wages, and address illegal components within the ...contract.
