“Would strongly recommend Ms. Erin Heidrich to any family who needs an education lawyer. Ms. Heidrich is the 3rd lawyer whom I ever retained in the past 5 years and the 10th with whom I talked. Just want to say that I would retain Ms. Heidrich without any hesitation if we ever needed an education lawyer again. She is truly effective, professional, and valuable. Other members of FMR are also effective and friendly.”- Jin Z.

“I highly recommend Freking Myers & Reul. My lawyers Elizabeth "Liza" Newman and Jon Allison were both very attentive, understanding, and extremely knowledgeable about employment law. Their care for me and my situation went above and beyond what was right in the eyes of the law, but what was right for me as a person trying to be valued as an employee and as an individual. I always felt heard and never did I feel like just another case on their docket. I don't have experience with legal situations and their usual costs, but I felt like I more than got my money's worth with this firm. Thank you so much Liza and Jon!”- Karen P.

“I recently had the pleasure of consulting with Kelly Myers during a very difficult contractual dispute with my prior workplace. While we agreed that it was best for me to continue myself, at least for a time, she was deeply helpful and insightful. We spoke for over 40 minutes about specific issues and I never felt rushed or unheard. I will recommend Ms. Myers to anyone who asks me for future employment issues. I am grateful and hopeful that this Google Review will bring new business to an attorney who I believe in just after a 40 minute consultation.”- Blake C.

“We wanted to share our experience with this law firm, as it was very positive from start to finish. My wife and I are in our 60's and were in a serious auto accident in which we were both injured. We were being pressured by the other parties insurance company to settle and did not know what we should do. We contacted Austin LiPuma who is a managing partner with the firm who helped us with the entire process. His communication was excellent keeping us informed every step of the way, presenting us with updates on our case, while allowing us to make the final decisions that we felt were best for us. Austin handled everything from dealing with the insurance companies to making sure that medical bills were being paid. In the end, he managed to get us a much better settlement than we expected.”- Kathy and Joe
