The Process of Hiring Us to Help You

Contact Us

Please call us or email us.  

This is without cost or obligation to you.  

Confidentiality 

Your communication to us for the purpose of hiring us is privileged and confidential.  We are prohibited from divulging your communications to us made for the purpose of seeking legal assistance.  This privilege of confidentiality exists even if you do not hire us, or we cannot help you.  Only in extremely limited circumstances can this privilege of confidentiality be waived, such as if you tell us you are seeking our services for illegal activity.  The reason for this privilege is to ensure that we know everything necessary to counsel and represent you.  

Please tell us why

When you contact us, let us know why you need our assistance.

Employment Law Cases

As you may expect, we need to know how an employer or person harmed you.  Information you should communicate to us, includes, for example:

Were you wrongfully discharged?  

Were you forced to resign because working conditions were so intolerable a reasonable person would not be able to stay?

Are you being subjected to a hostile work environment?  

Were you not hired because of discrimination?

Inform us of the big picture of why you need our help.  Let us know how an employer, an employer’s representative, or person may have violated your rights.  Let us know about the illegal employment action.  

Information you should communicate to us, may include:

Who was the employer, representative of the employer, and/or person who harmed you?

How many employees work for the employer?

When did the harm occur?

How long did you work for the employer?

What was your job description and title?

Did the employer discriminate against you because of your:
 

Race;
Age;
Religion;
Color;
National Origin;
Ancestry;
Sex;
Serious Medical Condition or Physical or Mental Handicap;
Disability; 
a Perceived Medical Condition, Handicap, or Disability;
a Record of a Medical Condition, Handicap, or Disability;
Sexual Orientation;
Gender Identity; 
Spousal Affiliation;
Pregnancy;
Work Related Injury; or
Military Status?

Did the employer or any person retaliate against you because you:

communicated about unlawful or improper acts;
objected to or refused to participate in an unlawful or improper act;
filed a complaint about discrimination or illegal employment actions;
testified or participated in any proceeding under various employment laws, such as be a witness;
exercised your rights such as under the Family and Medical Leave Act; or 
filed a claim for workers’ compensation benefits?

Other information you should communicate to us includes:

How are we going to prove the illegal employment action?

What made up reason was given to you for the illegal employment action?

How have you been harmed, both financially and emotionally?

The more of the above information you can communicate to us allows us to determine quicker if we are able to assist you.  

If you are unsure, simply tell us why you think you need our help.  

Once you communicate with us, and we determine that there is even the possibility that an employer or person violated your rights, we will schedule an appointment with you to meet in person and further discuss the details of how we may help you.  

This is without any cost or obligation to you.  

Contingent Fee Basis

If we are able to assist you, we usually do so on a contingent fee basis with us forwarding the costs of the litigation.  This means we only recover a fee if we are successful for you.
