Attorney Annette Newman was great to work with. She followed through with promises and followed up with correspondence. She represented me in an EEOC discrimination case against a former employer and having her knowledge and calming presence on my team was invaluable. Attorney Newman was able to answer all of my questions, providing me with accurate information and strategic intelligence every step of the way. I was very confident about my EEOC mediation as it unfolded almost exactly as Attorney Newman indicated it would. I can go on and on about my experience but I think that the title sums it up. Attorney Newman is not only a Professional to the highest order but she is a very experienced Employment Attorney and I would highly recommend using her services.
It was recommended to hire her. Upon me hiring her, my new life began the day. My life is so good and I have a brand new life now, because of this super, caring, great person. She is a people person. She is not in this field only for money..she cares and does all that she can to help. She is very knowledgeable and if she doesn't know it she will find it. I am so grateful to her and the person that sent me to her. She's the best.
I hired Attorney Newman to represent me in an Employment Discrimination case that involved my former employer. I must say I was extremely impressed with her knowledge, pro-active initiatives, aggression in attaining the information needed in order to advance my case, and ability to make my former employer liable for their wrongful termination in the eyes of the court.
I hired Ms.Newman to assist me with an EEOC complaint against my employer. Ms. Newman was prompt, effecient and offered a reasonable flat fee for her service. Ms. Newman went the extra mile and continued to assist me throughout the entire EEOC process which resulted into an extended period of time of one year more than our anticipated agreement. Ms. Newman's representation resulted in a positive outcome for me. My employment was reinstated and our initial contract agreement was satisfied. Ms. Newman has high integrity and is a woman of her word. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her for any LEGAL ASSISTANCE.
Annette Newman is an educated attorney and very knowledgable. I found that her experience from working in the workforce for many years was why I chose Annette Newman to represent me with the unemployment appeal that I needed representation with. From working as a District Director and years of Management she knew the employment laws so she had all that knowledge and went a step further to better her career as a Lawyer. In my opinion Annette Newman is a very Professional Attorney. I hope I won't need an attorney again but if I do her loyalty will bring me back to her.
