I had the pleasure of working with Ethan on a workplace disability discrimination matter that he successfully resolved. I had felt as if I was facing overwhelming odds, but Ethan's advocacy quickly brought my former employer to the bargaining table. Ethan and his firm provide just the right mix of personal attention and expertise to champion such tough cases and it is my pleasure to recommend him.

Ethan helped me through a challenging period, ending a business partnership that went sour quite fast. By the time I'd reached out to Ethan, conversations were no longer productive. He handled the negotiations in a wonderfully tactful manner and did an excellent job diffusing a tense situation without giving in. I would recommend Ethan in a heartbeat to anyone needing to deal with a difficult business relationship.
