Elizabeth Fujiwara has helped me with multiple contacts role and employment increase for the past 30 years. I would have made many bad decisions without her. She has caught many contracts they were not in my favor. And then has negotiated for me in my favor.

Liz was by my side throughout my sexual harassment case. She was always available and supportive, and she honored my goals and wishes. I continue to recommend her to others who seek to move forward on their own terms.

I can't even speak enough to how much Liz helped me in my situation. She provided a safe place for me and empowered me and enabled me to advocate for myself and take steps I needed to take. She was always available, responding quickly to emails and phone calls, and was so great about checking in with me. I would highly recommend Liz and her team if you are in need of legal services.

Ms. Fujiwara came recommended to me by another attorney who felt that she would be an excellent lawyer to represent me in an employer dispute. She was very knowledgeable, competent, professional, and experienced when it came to employment related issues. There were many times when I felt overwhelmed and anxious about my case but Liz always showed me compassion and understanding about the way I was feeling and let me know that everything would be okay. In the end she was able to secure a settlement between myself and my employer which I was very satisfied with. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth to my family and friends if they were ever in need of an attorney.

Ms. Fujiwara’s law firm represented me in 2015. Ms. Fujiwara was very clear and knowledgeable in interpreting the law and in discussing specific issues relating to my case. Ms. Fujiwara has a creative mind and is always aware of all factors related to a case and including seemingly unrelated information, which allows spontaneously add tactics to her defense strategy. Both Elizabeth Fujiwara and her partner Joseph Rosenbaum are down-to-earth, non threatening and non condescending and are also very caring and therefore easy to work with. They are also very dedicated to justice as well as to understanding the letter of the law,

My wife and I hired her to represent us in case involving acquiring a therapy dog in our condo that has a no-pets policy. Their lawyer had us jumping through hoops endlessly until Elizabeth stepped in. One phone call and it was done. She has the knowledge and will to see things through for her clients. Very easy to work with, very personable, yet professional. Highly recommended.

Ms. Fujiwara helped me resolve an employment related issue. I worked with her over 5 years so I know her well. She was competent and professional and stuck by me through the many filings that the defense filed to try to outspend us. Without her help, I don't know if I could have survived this very stressful situation. We reached a settlement that was satisfactory and resolved the problem going forward. I would highly recommend her to anyone with an employment related issue.

Hired Joseph Rosenbaum and Elizabeth Jubin Fujiwara March 2019. Joe wrote an ADA demand letter to my former employer. They responded harshly -- admonishing Joe for failing to act ethically. In sports terminology, employer attorney "dunked on him." They kicked his butt. Joe did not "zealously defend" me, as required. I appealed to Elizabeth Fujiwara, as she is senior partner in the matter. She refused to assist and clean up the mess. Instead, she kicked me out of their firm and threw ALL my money back at me. Elizabeth and Joe left me in a WORSE position than when I started. They walked way from me for having a "frank discussion" as HI Disciplinary Board advises. I simply offered what I believed was a more winnable strategy. I then wrote my own brief, submitted to the Hawai'i Civil Rights Commission, and they filed a complaint against my former employer. I'm not an attorney and seemed to have written a better legal argument than these two. Fujiwara and Rosenbaum didn't appear to act competently. They certainly didn't represent me well or zealously. They seemed to enjoy watching my former employer get the best of me. And when I complained, they kicked me out and threw my money back at me. I haven't cashed their checks. Concerned this is legal malpractice. To date, they have refused to return my case files; assist me finding new representation; and won't even clarify what was a "proposed" counter offer they made to company on my behalf. I'm still unclear on all they did and didn't do. Hired in March; now it's mid-September.
