Our legal strategies are based on fact - not emotion - building a strong case to protect the rights of workers who have been wronged by their employers.
A Straightforward, Honest Approach

When clients discuss their legal concerns with us, they know that they will receive a straightforward, frank and honest assessment of the legal issues their case presents. We will also discuss possible legal strategies and your prospects for success.

We do not hesitate to take a case to trial. We pursue your claims aggressively from the very beginning, fighting for your rights in an efficient and effective manner. Our mission is to achieve our client's goals - as quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively as possible.

We take most of our cases on a contingency basis. This means that you only owe a fee when we recover for you. In some instances, the opposing party may even have to pay your attorney fees when we win your case.
