Broderick represented me against a large corporation when I was sexually assaulted. Due to the delicate nature of the case, I was hesitant to consult an attorney in the first place. He was discreet, compassionate, and an incredible advocate on my behalf. Not only did he negotiate a generous settlement, he also was able to refer me to counseling services that have been helpful on my journey to recovery. Thank you Broderick!
Broderick had represented me in a case against my former employer. He never hesitated to take my calls, answer emails no matter when it was. He was calming, reassuring and professional. I would hire him again without any concerns what so ever!
Broderick represented me in an employment law case for a hostile work environment. He and his team made the process easy and communicated well with me. Everyone in the office is professional, kind and anxious to assist you. Broderick gave me a good idea of what to expect at each stage of the process and what documentation I needed to provide him. In addition, he gave me sage advice on how to conduct myself at work. His common sense approach guided me, especially on identifying which battles we should pick with my employer's inept management team. I was always able to reach Broderick with new developments and concerns. I appreciated Broderick always told me when he could speak to me, and followed through on his promise, during a stressful period in my life. He was steady, consistent, kind and the best advocate you could find. Broderick is a thoroughly decent person, a good listener and an astute judge of character. It was so comforting to have a calm, intelligent and confident attorney in my corner. Broderick brought quick resolution to my issue. He skillfully and diplomatically communicated the issues with the corporate attorney in a single email and phone call. The problem employee was removed from a shared office within 24 hours and permanently reassigned to a different location. It was magic! A good attorney can avoid a long protracted battle by concisely communicating the issues. I have no doubt Broderick's diplomacy preserved my professional relationships with management and allowed me to continue on my career path with a quick and satisfying resolution. I grew extremely fond of Broderick and miss his quick wit, that never failed to help me see the humor and smile, his calm temperament and his commitment to his clients. He is a wonderful person and the best attorney you could ever find to represent your interests. I wish Broderick was a member of my family or circle of friends, he is such a special person and gifted attorney.
I hired Broderick for an employment settlement case. He was able to get a 50+% increase in monetized settlement from the original offer. The services cost less than expected (which he also got covered) and the settlement closed in 45 days. Excellent attorney - highly recommend!
Broderick Dunn was the bright spot of a series of very challenging legal situations that my wife and I found ourselves in with two corrupt home builders. He guided us ably through complicated, high stress situations, each of which came to the best resolutions possible. Broderick was highly responsive, empathetic, patient and knowledgeable.
Mr. Dunn is a thoughtful, strategic, and capable attorney. I hired him to represent me in an employment law matter with grave personal stakes. At every turn, I felt confident in his ability to fully and robustly represent me. His grasp of law procedure and how to strategically deploy it is unparalleled. He repeatedly demonstrated an understanding of my overall goals and needs when providing his strategic advice about the development of the case. He did such an incredible job securing my resolution that I've recommended his services to other professionals facing difficult employment law cases.
I had been working at a software company for almost three years when a recruiter reached out to me from another software company. I interviewed at the company and was later presented a fantastic offer, which provided me a promotion and a larger compensation plan. I put in my resignation with my employer and began working at the new company. A few days later I was served with a complaint alleging I was violating the non-disclosure, non-compete and non-solicitation clauses in my former employment agreement. The former company was threatening me with monetary damages and even a possible injunction that would keep me from working in the software industry. Needless to say, I was anxious and needed a great attorney. I had consulted with several and then had a meeting with Mr. Dunn. He was knowledgeable, aggressive and provided me some peace in that he and his firm had the situation under control. He communicated with me some weeks on a daily basis and always provided me with a detailed review of the path forward and all of my options. Mr. Dunn was absolutely brilliant in reaching a successful resolution. I highly recommend him.
While Broderick didn’t do anything unethical or criminal while working for us, he was sloppy. He regularly mixed up details of the case in front of opposing counsel, forgot key details we wanted included, and told us obtaining certain evidence was important, but then didn’t use it when we provided it. When we expressed dissatisfaction with his work, he did not take it well, and talked at length about his personal difficulties finding a work-life balance. We allowed him to continue with our case, but his performance did not improve. Needless to say, we won’t be going back, and recommend a more experienced attorney.
I actually caught this guy sleeping while the case against me was being presented. You can’t win with this guy.
Paid $200 for a 45 min consultation Mr. Dunn offered no advice and seemed like he didn't know anything about employment law. At the end of our meeting he said he would followup with me in a couple of days its been almost 2 weeks and I still haven't heard anything.
