About

I am a highly experienced and skilled lawyer representing exclusively individuals (not businesses), primarily in the area of employment law. The areas in which I specialize include sexual harassment, whistleblower, executive negotiations, severance and non-compete agreents, wage and hour, FMLA and ADA, discrimination, and wage and hour.  My work ranges from advice and counseling to complex negotiations to trials and appeals.  I do this work because it is my passion.

Faith represented me in an employment law claim against my former employer. Through her expertise, intelligence and diligence I won a very fair settlement. Right from our first meeting I was impressed and my confidence in her continued to grow as we worked together. She's very honest, direct and all about doing what is right. She is also thorough in her questioning and takes lots of notes. In addition to her own legal expertise, I benefited from a network of other legal experts with whom she consulted to ensure all bases were always covered. Faith is a disciplined thinker, which she displayed in an amazing document she crafted outlining the facts of my case, the relevant legal principles (e.g., Title VII, FLSA), the strength of our position and the corresponding weaknesses of their position. I'm confident that Faith's expertise in framing the case and the likely averse outcomes for my former employer should this matter go to trial resulted in them presenting us with a favorable settlement. Along with her work ethic and expertise, Faith's kindness, compassion and consultations with me were so reassuring throughout this challenging situation. I recommend Faith to anyone who needs a truly great employment law attorney.

I must say Faith not only met my needs but exceeded my expectations. She was direct but professional. There was no "guessing" because I knew exactly where she was coming from. She was thorough and straight to the point. If I needed to reach her, she was great about returning my calls and she kept me informed as to what transpired. Faith has proven to be very knowledgeable in her field. I have been extremely satisfied with my decision to retain her. If you're looking for a honest, committed professional...look no further.

I had in the past mixed experiences with lawyers and was thus almost surprised to find in Faith a lawyer a felt I could really trust and that she had truly my interest in mind. I liked that she did not push an agenda, but rather provided me with the needed information that I could make a decision I was comfortable with. It is hard for me to appreciate how knowledgeable she since I am unfamiliar with employment law. However, she was recommended to me by someone, who is an expert in the field. I was amazed how little time she charged me for the work she did and got the impression that she is very efficient in her approach. I appreciated how she kept me informed about what was going on during the settlement proceedings. Having in her a true advocate, I felt like I could sit back and relax and not worry, but trust to get a much better outcome than what I had imagined. I understand that my situation was just a very small case for her, but that did not change her paying attention to details, being approachable and caring. As I indicated in the beginning, I felt hesitant to hire a lawyer, but this has been such a positive experience from start to end that I feel strongly about recommending Faith Herndon's services - yes, it is worthwhile even if it is relative small stuff.
