If I could give this firm a 10 star review, I would. From day one, my representation went above and beyond for not only my case, but for me as an individual.

10 Stars
Sean Herrmann and Jason are simply the best hands down. My case was difficult, challenging, but well worth pursuing misconduct in the workplace. I am incredibly grateful for the hard work Sean and his paralegal Jason performed. They are hard working, detailed, fair, and professional. I am ecstatic about the outcome and will use their services again if needed. Additionally I will refer anyone who has experienced unfair, illegal, or egregious misconduct in the workplace to these professionals. Sean and Jason are an incredible team and I am thankful for everything they did for me.

- M. Dore

Great
Thank you Sean Kevin for your help in an employment issue. While nobody ever wants to be in this situation, it is a tremendous relief to know that your firm is there. And actually cares and returns calls. From my first interaction with Jason and right til the end your firm definitely delivered. I can never thank you enough. But maybe a simple thanks is sufficient. God bless and keep doing good works.

- J. Sedlacek

A Tremendous Relief
These guys took a chance on me when things seemed pretty bleak, outlined a strategy for success and stuck with me the entire time (ups, downs, unknowns). They were always very competent, worked on my behalf without constant prompting from me and in the end got the results we were looking for. In a world where you often do not know what you'll get, these guys are the real deal. They tell you exactly like it is and will work on your behalf. Great team, great outcomes, give them a call and trust them with your case.

- P.

Grateful
Kevin and Sean were referred to me by a friend. Upon speaking to them about my issue, they were extremely communicative and took the time to listen and understand the details in order to represent my case with fidelity. Throughout the entire process, I felt assured that they were working in my best interest. I highly recommend working with them if you are in need of lawyers who work with and for their clients.

- M. Leak

Extremely Communicative
I had a unique and somewhat difficult situation that Sean was willing to take on. He stayed with it for nearly 5 years from start to finish. Was very supportive and honest with what was what, and gave what I felt was good advice, and never gave up. I would highly recommend Sean and Kevin for anyone in need of representation. Just because someone has broken the law does not mean anything automatic, and there are times when quality representation like I received from Sean are truly needed.
