“I have engaged the firm a few times regarding employment issues. Each time they were, kind, supportive, efficient, and provided excellent guidance. I have recommended them to several friends and colleagues. We were also impressed at how timely, organized and methodical they were!”- Virginia W.
-
“Finding yourself on the receiving end of wrongdoing can be a difficult and daunting experience. And sometimes in order to make things right, you need professional help. Our family was very fortunate to find Mark Napier and his wonderful staff. He reviewed our situation thoroughly and counseled and advised us every step of the way. Not only were he and his staff personable and approachable, but they were also very comforting and assuring during a very difficult and stressful time. Mark Napier rectified a situation for us that we could not have managed on our own. Our many many thanks and appreciation to Mark Napier and his staff. Highly recommended!”- Jim S.

I am grateful for their commitment and support. I highly recommend them to anyone with employment concerns or challenges.”- Kristilynn T.

“I've had generally mediocre experiences with (only a few) attorneys over a lifetime, but George Reul is the exception. I met him briefly, relating to an employment matter. He is methodical and primed. For once I did not detect a lawyer simply chasing the dollar. He is thoughtful, asks the right questions, and gives clear advice. If I need more help, I won't hesitate to go back. The staff and operation here, too, is top-notch, professional, and clearly able to deliver quality legal services. Good find!”- John S.

“I couldn’t recommend Kelly Myers from Freking Myers & Ruel enough. From the beginning, Kelly was both confident and comforting in supporting my case every step of the way. She did a wonderful job explaining the processes/lawyer jargon and truly made me feel that she had my back and would fight her hardest for me. Kelly and her whole team were also very responsive and kind. For any lawyer needs- Kelly Myers should absolutely be your first pick! I’m so glad she was mine.”- Devin B.

“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.

“During a very difficult time I had the pleasure to work with Liza. She was quick to explain my options while listening and allowing me to explain my situation. She kept me updated during the process and explained everything as we went along. I would highly recommend her. Her knowledge and compassion made me feel comfortable during a time that was very challenging.”- Elizabeth Newman
-
“Our experience with this firm has been very positive. I particularly appreciated the clear communication regarding the consultation fee to review the situation and determine realistic next steps. Navigating the user-friendly website, completing the initial questionnaire, receiving a prompt response, and meeting with an attorney all helped us understand the possibilities in a way we could comprehend. The initial support team was accommodating and professional. Jon Allison was patient, respectful, and fully present during the review. His expertise and ability to sift through details, listen compassionately and outline options was reassuring. The objective was to reach a mutually agreeable plan of action and we did. Highly recommend!”- SP D.

“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
