Highly Recommend Mr. Blanken for Unemployment hearings!

I received a letter in the mail as an advertisement for services when my employer decided to appeal my unemployment benefits. Being unemployed is stressful enough but having to go through the uncertainty of hearings jut makes it that much more stressful. Mr. Blanken was calm an courteous and took t...he time to listen. He explained to me the options of my case and the best way to proceed. He was very forthright and open in explaining how the law works and how it would pertain to my case. I can honestly say that out of any dealings I have had with attorneys my experience with Mr. Blanken has been head and shoulders above the rest! I highly recommend that if you find yourself in the need of an attorney for an unemployment matter to give Mr. Blanken a chance. I do not think you will be disappointed. I know I wasn't!

Exceptional!

I received a letter in the mail from Mr. Blanken (and many others as well) due to my unemployment benefits being denied. I called a few before Mr. Blanken and they were either rude, never returned my call, or had no time for me. Mr. Blanken returned my call in a timely manner and went to work on my a...ppeal immediately. He rescheduled my appeal date due to work conflicts. He also was very thorough in going over my case with me on the phone prior to the appeal. I feel the questions that he asked during the appeal- allowing me to reveal all the facts- was the key in my winning. I would refer anyone who is going through this same appeal process to use Mr. Blanken.
