Simply Masterful in Handling my Appeal with Administrative Law Judge

My former employer was alleging all kinds of misconduct against me in hopes of preventing me from receiving my benefits. My attorney took apart their story piece by piece and saved me from being unjustly accused of wrong-doing. My former employer is a big time corporation with many layers of human ...resource personnel who can make anyone look bad without batting an eye. My attorney's skill in cross-examining these people was like watching a dog putting its tail between its legs, literally making them walk back their false accusations and half-truths. Justice was served and I was so happy to get the benefits I desperately needed. I was fully prepped before my hearing and like clockwork I was prepared and knew what to anticipate... except I was not prepared for how pleasantly surprised I would be by my attorney's skill in tearing apart my employer -- that was the icing on the cake!!

Thank you for you help!

I had a big problem with a Real Estate matter. I met with Mr. Newman and he kept me informed all the way to the end of the problem. He explained we would work as a team. I provided him the evidence or as he called it the bullets to fill the gun and together we brought down the defendant. I would use ...Mr. Newman for any matter at all. He returned my telephone calls and when he was out of the office wrote to me via emails. I won my case and we worked well as a team. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a good and responsive attorney.
