Reviews
Alden was excellent and incredibly helpful, from my initial consultation through successfully closing my case. I had never hired an employment lawyer and had many questions. Alden was patient and worked diligently on my behalf with a challenging former employer.
Alden was the best attorney I have ever used. Her ability to understand the complex legal aspects of my case, strategically recommend, plan and clearly communicate a course of action made her invaluable to me. She is honest, sets realistic expectations, truly listens to concerns and respects your opinions. After the case was settled, she followed up with me to answer any remaining questions I may have and make sure I was happy with her services. The best!
I've been working with Alden for over a year and feel it is time to write what i feel about her work. In two words: "exceeds expectations." She is a top notch writer and researcher and is a true "up and coming" employment lawyer.
Ms. Thomas gave me advice on how to appeal my state university rejection of my application for Arizona residency as a student. Being classified as a resident would allow me to pay instate tuition for the rest of my education, at great savings to myself. She knew a great deal about the residency appeal process and her instructions on how to go about the appeal were very clear. I won my appeal, and she deserves a great deal of credit.
Ms. Thomas effectively resolved my employment dispute concerning termination of a contract, and I am so grateful for her extensive knowledge and wonderful service. I give Ms. Thomas my highest recommendations.
