Taneen Jafarkhani

Taneen is our go to attorney on employment matters. She has helped us with everything from classification, employee disputes, performance issues, and termination. Each time I work with her I am impressed by her work. She consistently works to understand the issue in full and then provides thoughtful ...and direct advice, recognizing the complexity of the situation and matters including people. She is a trusted support and a lawyer that I am continually grateful to be able to work with.

I was referred to Taneen by a friend who spoke very highly of her and she didn’t disappoint. I needed help with a contract issue, which for me was quite confusing and emotionally charged. Taneen brought clarity to the situation and clearly laid out my options and explained in detail how the process w...ould work depending on what option I chose. She was also incredibly warm and I could sense the passion she feels for her work. I would definitely recommend her.

I was recently laid off and was looking for somebody to look over my severance agreement with a quick turnaround time. Taneen had an initial call with me to explain her background and learn more about my situation and the specifics of my layoff. She then reviewed the agreement for me and offered her ...professional opinion, as well as providing some wording suggestions for a section I was a bit concerned by. Even though my situation was very simple, I found Taneen to be very communicative and thorough, and would definitely work with her again.

I spoke with Taneen in regards to my harassment and discrimination taking place at work. At first I didn’t feel that I had any options but after speaking to her not just did she put my mind at ease but also let me know all of my options which gave me a clear vision of the steps I needed to take next ...against my employer. She explained everything to me in ways I could understand and was sympathetic, attentive, and professional. If I do move forward and it’s something that Taneen specializes in then I will definitely hire her. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a great attorney whether it’s for consisting or hiring

Taneen was a huge help to me when it came time to negotiate my employment agreement for a new job. The combination of her background in employment law and her experience as an HR/Hiring Director give her a powerful set of skills and insights. Not only was she able to help guide me with regards to... what to ask for, but she was particularly adept at figuring out HOW to ask for things. Thanks to her advice, I was able to position my requests in a way that was appealing to my employer and I ended up getting everything that I asked for. She was particularly helpful with regards to the details of an unsually-structured equity offer. Without her help I wouldn't have gotten the great deal that I did.
