May Mon was great to deal with. I would say that the aspect which impressed me most was how strong and firm she was in negotiating with the lawyer for the plaintiff. She was very firm that we hold our ground and that she would win the negotiation and she did. I think the result was better than I would have expected going in. Of course, she was timely, kept me on task with gentle reminders, and was organized and professional. I also appreciated that she clearly informed me of items / areas that were not important matters and thus did not waist my time or hers.

May Mon took my case as a friend of a friend yet you would never know by the quality of service that she provided. She was very clear as what might be possible and what direction we should proceed. Bottom line is that I never would have been able to reach the settlement that I did without her help and guidance. Absolutely terrific.

Mon Post is an outstanding lawyer. She gives her all. She even lost several nightts of sleep to research my casethouroughly.As soon as she picked up my case we were in tight communication. She kept me informed about everything she was doing and also what the opposing atterney's were up to. She prepared me for the case from how to dress to how how the opposing party would attacks. She was more than an attorney to me. There were very sensitive parts during the case where i was not strong enough to hold back tears. she was there for me and made me strong. For a newbe she is a strong attorney. It took several fertile opposing attorney that has been in the bussiness for years to try to bring her down and with that still could not. Overall i don't think there in another attorney like her.

I have nothing but praise when it comes to May Mon Post. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to your questions about this subject. Whenever I called her she would either answer the phone herself or when I left a message she promptly got back to me. I was a little concerned with my outcome because I had never been through this process but she assured me that my claim would be justified and she made me feel very comfortable with her performance. Before my hearing she made a conference call to me to go over the details of the hearing for over an hour. When she was done talking with me I felt like I was ready for the hearing and confident that the decision would go in my favor. The day of the hearing she arrived early, went in with me and asked for the file on my case and she looked them over and assured me that everything would be all right. She was very prepared with her examples of case law and presented the evidence in a firm factual way. When you work with May Mon you get a Lawyer that actually communicates with you on a personal level. She gets you involved and is readily available when you need her. I would feel very comfortable recommending her if you want results. I was very pleased with her professionalism and understanding when I needed her.

I engaged Ms. Post for assistance with my separation from my employer. From the outset, she explained my options clearly in layman's terms. She handled the negotiations professionally and ensured that I was always kept updated and part of the decision process. Ms. Post concluded the matter successfully.

My husband and I are former client's of May Mon Post. We met May about a year ago when we were searching for an immigration attorney to assist us with filing for my husband's permanent residency/application for a green card. I knew May was different from any other attorney I've ever met/worked with simply because she was extremely personable and sensitive to our case. She is also very sensitive and accommodating to your needs and concerns as every case is different. She made the entire process so easy for us that I really can’t imagine going through it without her. Most importantly however, May was always available to us at any time whenever we needed her. We had a lot of questions throughout our case and it was extremely comforting knowing that I did not have to go through a long list of individuals to get to her; I was able to reach her directly at any time. May is professional, extremely trustworthy, personable and very knowledgeable. She is always pleasant and is a kind hearted and great person. She is clearly passionate about what she does and that is what makes her a great and successful lawyer. It was both an honor and a pleasure to work with May and I will continue to spread the word about how wonderful she was to work with. Hiring May was easily the best decision my husband and I ever made. Now that our case has ended (and very successfully I might add), we can happily say that May was not only our lawyer but that she is now our friend. We will continue to keep in touch with her because she was truly a blessing in our lives. Thank you so much May Mon Post! We really can’t thank you enough for what you have done for us.
