Unemployment Appeal

I retained Mr. Blanken when my unemployment insurance claim was denied. He was extremely knowledgeable of the processes of the appeal hearing. His participation in the process resulted in the denial of my claim being overturned. I would recommend Mr. Blanken in any unemployment appeal.

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!

Homage to a Dedicated Attorney

With my highest honor I am elated to recommend Attorney Jonathan Blanken for his hard work and for being dedicated to his craft, for which he has blessed me to conquer all the limitations I have faced in the struggle for receiving employee benefits. He open doors of hope and provided justice for a c...ase I could not dare fight alone. I am not just satisfied with his services, as that would be an understatement, thus I am forever in debt to his loyal, dedicated, and trusted services. With my warmest and sincerest regards, he is a blessed, talented young man that I deem worthy of all the thanks for this recent blessing in my life. There is no way I could truly thank him for his services, but may this review testify my warm thankfulness.

Lawer Review

Jonathan told me he could help me maintain my unemployment benefits because it appeared my last employer mistreated me and fired me for very minor reasons. He accepted my case and we won hands down. In fact he was so good, I felt some sorrow for the former employer because he put them on the hot seat... and they looked foolish, thanks Jonathan.

Jonathan Blanken Great Attorney in NC

Jonathan Blanken helped me on two occasions within a five year period with unemployment cases. We won both times! Mr. Blanken is a wonderful attorney! Not only is he knowledgeable about NC law, but he is also patient, kind and understanding. He takes the time to return your calls and eases your anxie...ty while he walks you through the entire case. I recommend Mr Blanken to anyone who wants a great attorney to help them win their case. Thanks and hooray for Jonathan Blanken!
