This is an impressive law firm. Nothing but praise. Although they could not take my case; about 30 minutes was spent on the phone with me, going over my case and options I had. Real heart ❤️👏There are certain rooms you never want to walk into alone. A deposition. A courtroom. The silence that follows the words, "you've been terminated." If you told me that I would survive those two years and come out the other side stronger, I wouldn't have believed you for one second. I want to be honest: I hate legal stuff. I would rather lock myself in a room with an angry goose than deal with any of it. Litigation is exhausting, invasive, and there's nothing fun about it. I'm serious! And yet, somehow, Rebecca made it bearable. I don't say that lightly. What she did wasn't magic and it was harder than being smart (though she's that too). She's unshakably calm and relentlessly prepared. She showed up, over and over, in the moments when I was barely holding myself together. Not once did she make me feel like a case number or the puddle of a human being that I was at the time. She saw me, she heard me, and she had my back at every single turn, quietly and completely, the way people do when they actually mean it. I think that's the part that gets me the most, looking back. It wasn't just that she fought for me, it's that she made the worst chapter of my professional life into something I could get through. And then she helped me get through it, one step at a time, with the kind of patience and care that I didn't expect from someone whose job was to represent me. It's rare to meet someone whose words actually stay with you, long after the case is closed. Rebecca is one of those people. She isn't just an exceptional attorney, she's a genuinely wonderful person, the kind who makes you believe that good people still choose hard, thankless work because they care. So, if you ever find yourself in a room that feels scary (like with an angry goose), facing something too big to carry alone, Rebecca is exactly who you want standing beside you.Rebecca is the kind of attorney you hope to find but rarely do. She provided legal services during a critical moment for me, and her impact went far beyond what I expected. She brought clarity to complex areas, asked thoughtful questions I hadn’t considered, and ultimately gave me the confidence to move forward. What truly sets Rebecca apart is how she shows up as a person. She leads with empathy, listens deeply, and genuinely cares about the people she works with. You never feel like just another client. You feel supported, understood, and in very capable hands. She has that rare combination of sharp legal expertise and a grounded, human approach that makes complex situations feel manageable. I trust her completely and would recommend her to anyone looking for not just a great attorney, but a true partner. If you have the opportunity to work with Rebecca, take it.HKM is a great firm that does incredible work representing employees.Many clients speak to the professionalism and skill with which HKM Employment Attorneys advocate for their clients.

Thanks to following their advice all of my concerns were addressed and my former company made adjustments to our agreement that helped my family immensely.Daniel K. Taking great care to get the case resolved!This was my first time engaging in any sort fo legal service agreement. Put simply -- Erin Norgaard, Brian Dolman and the HKM Team are heroes in my eyes. I was faced with a very stressful employment dispute that put my livelihood at stake. Erin was fast to respond to my inquiry, took my case, and then brought Brian on board as well. They had complimentary areas of expertise that felt custom fit to my case. They are seasoned lawyers, yet they were sensitive to my situation and were personal with me when corresponding. It was always educational listening to them think aloud as they would anticipate the actions of the other party. They are at the top of their field, they know it, and it showed in their bravery when communicating with the other party. I have absolute trust in them -- there was never a moment that I didn't feel the utmost confidence in their legal strategies. We reached a favorable outcome in the end and I'm eternally grateful for their hard work. If you have the opportunity, jump on the chance to work with them. I recommend their counsel very highly.I could not have been happier with the advice and service I got from Cecilia Brennan at HKM that saved me from signing and accepting a one-sided severance package from my former employer.

Dan Kalish and Mamta Ahluwalia are incredible attorneys and even more incredible people.They are the true definition of trustworthy advocates. I would recommend to friends and family.I cannot say enough great things about HKM. Mamta and Dan were not only courteous and professional to me but assassins in the court. They came very prepared, were quick on thier toes, and stayed calm while under pressure. It was extremely comforting to know that they were in my corner. I had never filed a lawsuit before and I was very naive to the entire process. Mamta held my hand throughout out the entire process even when I was freaking out because I had no idea what was going on. She calmly explained the formalities and process to me in a non patronizing way. For anyone who feels that filing a lawsuit is overwelming and out of your realm of comfort, I strongly suggest you contact HKM. For anyone who is looking for top level attorneys to represent you, I suggest you contact HKM. They are incredibly gifted attorneys who truly care about their clients.

I hope to never have to file another lawsuit but if I have to, I know who to call.I can't say enough about Dan Kalish and HKM. I've relied on Dan as a trusted advocate, expert advisor, and tough-minded negotiator for several years. His judgment is second to none. He knows when to dig in and fight for every possible advantage. And, just as importantly, he knows when to stand down and live to fight another day. When it comes to matters as delicate as employment issues, you really can't afford to settle for anything less.
