Reviews
I hired Rachel to negotiate my separation agreement from my longtime employer. She thoroughly reviewed my case, and explained my options to me. I was very pleased with the advice and service I received from Rachel and her team.
Rachel and her team handled my case in an expedient and cost-effective manner with absolute consideration. I interviewed three other law firms prior to retaining Rachel’s assistance. My professional and personal opinion is that she and her team will tackle your legal challenges with vigor. The outcome of my legal action was highly favorable.
Hired. Doubled the settlement the company originally offered me. Good ROI for my money.
Rachel was great, she listened to my case, looked through all the information I gave her, and she felt confident about my case and gave me the reasons why which was comforting. I get very nervous about legal matters big or small and I didn't want to take any chances representing myself because it hadn't gone well for me in the past, so Rachel still showed up, which I think helped my employer show up for once, and Rachel helped me win my case and get closure for it. I was very grateful for how she prepared me, represented me, and followed up with me.
Ms Ellis thoroughly reviewed my case and asked good questions to understand my situation and motivations. Her review of my paperwork seemed thoughtful and on-point, with good focus on what truly matters. She seemed most interested in developing a strategy for my long-term success and happiness.
I worked with Rachel Ellis through my entire process. She was communicative, very knowledgeable, and most important she stood up for me as a woman and as a professional who deserved justice and equality. She always kept my best interest in mind and fought to the end to help me win my case I had no idea was even possible to win. More than winning it was wonderful to connect with an attorney who understood what happened and what I deserved. Her assistant Amber was equally wonderful and always following up right away to any of my questions. Definitely go with Rachel for employment law!
I was somewhat skeptical paying a consult fee but it was well worth the advise. Rachel seems to be fully vested supporting and working on protecting the rights of clients. I had three strategies provided when I left that conversation. I will retain her services but I don’t have a legal case yet a few additional things need to happen from my employer.
I was an HR Manager with a very sticky situation. The president of the company had been doing erratic irrational behaviors to many employees including me the entire time I worked there, but I knew something was going very wrong after I returned from Maternity Leave and my job duties had changed, among many other concerning factors. I consulted with Rachel and felt she took a lot of time looking into all of my documentation and was invested in my situation. She was compassionate with her words but was honest and straight forward with the situation. She helped brainstorm ways to make the situation better, and how I can be moving forward, what all of my options were. Although I didn't expect what she said, she explained it in great detail and made sure that she answered all of my questions. When following up she has given me great advice as well. Be aware that it might not be an instantaneous response from Rachel, but communicate what you need from her and she is very responsive! I'm thankful to have met her, and will hopefully not need her in the future but would recommend her to others for any employment issues.
I consulted with Rachel to sound off on my work situation to see what my next steps would be. Rachel was very personable, sincere and honest. She was a good listener, friendly and understanding. She went out of her way to provide me with good, practical advice on how to move forward with my personal and professional situation although I work in cell biology and she is a lawyer- I truly admire her sincerity at wanting to help out even if this wasn't a situation she can help fix for me. True, facts are not always pleasant, but she provided me with the best, straightforward advice out there. I consulted many lawyers before her since my situation was unique and I could not get clear cut answers- needless to say she clarified my issues for me and how best to handle them. I highly recommend her.
Rachel came highly recommended by another lawyer, and I'm so thrilled I reached out about a termination case. She and her team of support made the process totally painless when it could've been really scary. She often took time away from her busy day to respond to email requests or have phone consultations that were spot on and really quite empowering. I appreciate that style: just giving me the vital information and letting me decide what to do, with her counsel and advice serving as a backup. Rachel and her team are a vital community asset.
