My experience with employees First Labor Law has been wonderful. Oliver and Jonathan have been so courteous and helpful. I reached out because I had an employer refusing to pay me after a short period of employment and after several tries to contact the owner I was still being ignored for weeks! I decided to contact Employees First Labor Law and was met with courtesy and compassion for my situation. Communication has been speedy and I feel such a weight lifted. It's hard sometimes to stand up for yourself when it comes to an employer and I feel like I have someone standing up for me. I highly recommend Employees First Labor Law. read more

No response whatsoever. Tried calling their office multiple times and until I submitted an inquiry on yelp, they responded asking me to call and that's all I ever heard back from this place. I post a review on yelp and they can respond within minutes, but not respond at all when I was in need of legal help? Apart from requesting help on yelp, I submitted a contact form on their website and still; never heard back. I was actually recommended to come here and it was a huge let down. Wouldn't waste my time on this place. read more

This review is long overdue. 3 years ago I had no idea if I had a case or not. I called around a few law firms trying to scope things out and get a feel for each attorney I spoke with. Jonathan and his team were quick to return my call with a consultation, and soon after we got the ball rolling. Jonathan, Adrian, Lisa, and Jessica were all fantastic to work with, answered any questions I had, were diligent in their work, and fought for me till the very end. There was a point in the lawsuit where the depositions and back-and-forth really started to affect me, as it was all so emotionally triggering to rehash over and over again. I felt like giving up, but Jonathan was quick to motivate me and remind me what my case was worth. Almost 6 months after reaching a verdict & payout, I have to say.... Jonathan and his team CHANGED MY LIFE. For the first time in years, I am finally at peace. All of my debt is paid off, my living expenses for the next couple years are allocated away, I'm living good, no longer depend on anyone, and most importantly... I am able to stay home and raise my 2 beautiful babies while attending nursing school. I owe all of this to EFLL. All of this to say... if you aren't sure if you have a case or not... or if you definitely do, please do yourself a favor and do NOT skip on this law firm! They will fight for you like no other, they will win for you, and they will help change the trajectory of your life as long as you do your part as a client and put in the work to do so. Thank you SO much Jonathan and the rest of EFLL. Thankful, grateful, & blessed is what I am read more

I recently had the pleasure of working with Mr. LaCour (founder/managing partner of EFLL) to have a physician employment agreement reviewed before joining a new practice. Long story short, he's now my "go to guy"! First contact: after emailing Mr. LaCour, I was impressed with having an expeditious response within an hour! Staff: Miss Jessica Galindo was very prompt and great to work with. She was able to get my contract for Mr. LaCour's review and helped me get set up with a phone conversation with Mr. LaCour to go over my contract. Professional service: this was a employment contract review and more specifically a physician employment agreement review. Overall, I was very impressed with my call with Mr. LaCour. He had comprehensively reviewed my contract and walked me through it step by step. This was super important given my legal naiveté. He was able to break down some more nuanced and complicated legal jargon into easy to understand terms so that I felt very comfortable moving forward with getting additional questions answered by my employer and ultimately signing the contract (woo hoo!! ;)). Cost: very reasonable for the time he both spent reviewing my contract before our conversation and the time he spent on the phone with me. Furthermore, his firm has established a very easy digital invoice system so that payment is not a hassle and is done instantaneously. All in all, while I hope not to need legal services, I am comforted knowing that I have a champ in my corner looking out for me. Thanks Mr. LaCour and EFLL!!! read more
