An attorney who stands on principle and delivers results

When you’ve been treated unfairly at work, it’s hard to know who will truly stand with you. I worked with Ridgeway Woulfe on a wage claim involving multiple labor law violations, and from the start, I knew I was in capable hands. His communication was clear and responsive. He always followed thr...ough, returned calls when he said he would, and took the time to explain everything thoroughly. I felt supported and well-informed throughout the process. His legal knowledge and strategy were excellent. We achieved a win, and I’m truly grateful for the outcome. What sets him apart is his integrity. He takes the high road and still prevails, even when others choose otherwise. He practices law with professionalism and character. I’m especially thankful that he took my case even though it was not a huge monetary claim. Some might have overlooked it. He didn’t. For me, the recovery meant a great deal, and his willingness to stand up for it spoke volumes. Although my original wage claim might have appeared modest at first glance, he understood the full scope of the violations; including penalties and waiting time provisions. Because of his knowledge and strategy, the final recovery increased significantly and ultimately came close to what I had earned during my entire time employed there. What seemed small on paper was anything but small in reality. Furthermore, this case undoubtedly left a lasting impression on my former employer. This case was about more than wages. After being treated poorly by my employer, I had felt worn down and insignificant. With Ridgeway on my side, I walked away feeling empowered. I recommend him without hesitation.

Look no further! Hire Ridgeway!

I highly recommend hiring Ridgeway Woulfe! He helped me win a wrongful termination lawsuit against a major university. My unfair firing hurt me to the core. And it left me in a bad place financially. (Especially since I had been in the process of interviewing with several other companies when I ...accepted the offer from the university). I did not realize that I could sue for wrongful termination. When my friend told me to hire an employment attorney I told her "I can't. It's At Will employment so they can fire me at any time." I was wrong! During our first consultation Ridgeway told me that I was able to file a wrongful termination lawsuit. If you are not sure if you have a case I recommend doing a consultation. Ridgeway was very easy to work with. He sets deadlines for the opposing counsel to respond and if they do not meet the deadline, he follows up with them. He kept me informed every step of the way. Since I had not worked for the university for very long we did not win much money. However, from my perspective it was the principle. The termination was based on a false accusation about my skill level. Ridgeway and his assistant took a long time gathering evidence to prove how ridiculous the claim was. Now the entire department knows how incompetent the young manager who fired me is. Hopefully now that the university lost my case, she has received some employment law training so she can never hurt anyone this badly again. I told Ridgway that I feel bad that he spent a lot of hours working on my case and did not receive that much money. He told me the reason why he started his own employment law practice is so he could have the flexibility to take on small cases if needed. Don't hesitate! Call for a consultation.

Exceptional Attorney

What Attorney Woulfe did for me is truly remarkable. He took on my legal case when many other local area law firms would not do so. It is entirely because he believed in me and the circumstances of my case, that he was successful in bringing the resolution to my case that gives me peace of mind, and ...a sigh of relief, in a situation that was not of my choosing, but that created a dark cloud in my life for over a year. If you are wondering if Attorney Woulfe should take your case, simply know that he should. He is exemplary and professional and does not hesitate to reach out and call you to explain the latest developments in your case in person. I found that invaluable in my situation. It is with the highest regard that I recommend Attorney Woulfe to anyone considering hiring a law firm to represent them with an employment law issue.

I appreciate and value you for fighting for me!

Mr. Ridgeway is a phenomenal man, and attorney. When I came to him, I didn't have any real expectations. However, I knew I didn't want to have ANYONE else go through what I did while trying to do their job, I wanted to be a possible reason change would be brought about. It wasn't a monetary thin...g for me. It was personal. Mr. Ridgeway didn't make me "feel" valued, believed, and heard. Ridgeway, made me "know" those things. I never had to wonder if he was giving my case any attention. I knew it, he would check in periodically without me having to chase him down. He paid meticulous attention to the details. My case was settled and I'm greatful for his help. I hope to never need his help in the future but, if I do... I know he will be the very 1st person I call.

Mr James Woulfe The Real Deal !!

Hi everyone more than a year ago I reached out to Mr Woulfe. Truth be told during my consultation felt like divine intervention after I’d explained my situation to Mr Woulfe. I felt as if a large weight had been lifted off my worries. Long story short I gave this attorney 100% of my faith and let hi...m do his job without calling him every five minutes and bothering him . He did his job and very well he did reach out to me when necessary with the usual good news. This attorney is the real deal I won my settlement and referred him to several of my friends.
