    I am so impressed with Baillon Thome Jozwiak & Wanta because of their track record of winning…read morecases, and the kind of cases they take on. They are a law firm that are for the people and they really want to help people that have been wronged by their employers or wronged by dishonest businesses. I also have known one of the lawyers for almost 20 years, and have met his partners and most of his colleagues. They are all really honest, kind, and caring people who genuinely want to help those in need. And at the same time they are all extremely intelligent and passionate about the work that they do. I have also visited their offices many times. The work environment is very positive with a great energy. As a guest, I always feel very welcomed into their offices from the moment I arrive at reception. The office as a whole (interns, assistants, receptionist and lawyers) are all treated as valuable members of a team, which says so much about a company. Baillon, Thome, Jozwiak, Wanta and their team are are amazing lawyers and do their best to help every client. I encourage you to read the "not recommended" Yelp reviews from actual clients, who had never written a Yelp review, but were motivated to do so because of the great services they received. These reviews are very informative about the service and experience you can expect from Baillon Thome Jozwiak and Wanta.

    Wanta Thome wasted a great deal of my time, and I understand they have great reviews - so I don't…read moretake putting a 1 star lightly because I appreciate good business. *** BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE - THEY DEMAND 40% CONTINGENCEY FEE FOR PRE-LITIGATION WHICH IS HIGHER THAN USUAL, AND IT GETS WORSE*** I was referred by AI which maybe was my first mistake - but the website looked legitimate and the language seemed to match what I was looking for. I was on the website, and, without acting - a calendar popped up. I was strong-armed into booking an appointment with Carla the intake Lead. Well I book it, but then in the morning Carla e-mails me and tells me she's kicking it down to an entry level intake employee - which I resisted because my case is complex and I wanted someone with experience. Well I didn't get my way, the firm insisted that I get a greenhorn. The new intake person ended up getting fired or quit, but not before wasting my time. The first call was a standard 25 minutes and I submitted a timeline for her as well. 6 days later I get a text saying "Since you're not fired, we can't represent you, but reach out to us immediately if you DO get fired." Those were exactly the terms of rejecting me and leaving the door open. Well a few weeks later my employer ramps up the shenanigans threatening to fire me, then finally does - so I reach back out as instructed. The file is re-opened at Wanta, I'm told GREAT NEWS the attorney is taking a look! Then I had an attorney Kristan call me for another intake. I took the time to send her a detailed updated timeline. She called back with a retainer offer on another day and asked me to open it on the phone. I questioned the high fee and the fact that Wanta Thome will NOT coordinate with EEOC or NLRB inquiries/charges. Compared to what the website says, this seems to make no sense for an employee who did diligence before getting fired who already wants to use those agencies to help out his co-workers and himself. What's disturbing is the amount of wasted time. I TOLD THEM RIGHT AWAY ON THE PHONE AND IN MY TIMELINE THAT I HAVE AN NLRB CHARGE AND EEOC INQUIRY!!! IT TOOK THEM 45 DAYS TO REALIZE IT. I could have been told that initially, it could have been listed on the website in some form. Nobody on the planet it my situation would read the website and be led to believe anything otherwise. The intake process was wonky. Kristen on multiple phone calls assumed I was in Minnesota WHEN I CLEARLY AM IN CHICAGO and corrected her multiple times. They're just not paying full attention. ALSO she said She'd have to ask the partners about the EEOC/NLRB clause in the contract - she said she can't speak with them for 5 days because they're "away" -- I'm sorry, You have a huge law firm in multiple states - and the top 2 partners are going to be off the radar for a week? Do they meditate in the far east? That makes no sense. I respect any attorney's decision to decline a case for whatever reason - but at no point was I led to believe anything other than WANTA THOME IS THE PERFECT FIRM TO REPRESENT ME. I knew it was a wonky process but I told myself - as long as I get retained and they can help me - it'll be worth it. I was wrong. They offered to retain me - and all I said was "hey - do they mind doing something that their website makes it seem like they would totally do?" Advice to the firm - don't put Retaliation, Wrongful Termination, Discrimination on your website if you're not going to coordinate with NLRB or EEOC. Just put in big letters at the top "WE WANT TO SEND A LETTER FOR A HIGH FEE AND IF IT DOESNT WORK WE'RE BACKING OUT." A severe waste of my time - it's not OK - I'll never get it back. They don't really pay attention. I'm not sure what types of cases these reviews come or if they're incentivezed to send them in - but for the sake of helping people who need help - if you see any of these warning signs, consider going somewhere else. IM SO GLAD I DIDNT SIGN THAT RETAINER WITHOUT FIGHTING FOR A SENSIBLE CONTRACT. Change your website

    I phoned this law firm, after having called 8 others, with no one bothering to return my calls. The…read morefollowing morning after leaving a message, attorney Todd Gadtke returned my call. While not being able to take my case, as his practice is limited to mainly Lemon law cases, he nonetheless spent 40 minutes speaking with me, regarding my case & options. This... with no compensation whatsoever! Who/what attorney does this? An attorney with empathy, integrity, morals & concern for others, that's who! A good man! Now... this really put a dent in my belief, and that of many others... that most attorneys ride along on the underbelly of a fungus, that inhabits the bottom of slime-dwelling creatures! A welcome breath of fresh air-- a refreshing belief in the remaining good in humanity. If you're looking for someone to represent you with intelligence, loyalty and empathy, look no further than this exceptional law firm! I am honored to wholeheartedly recommend them, as the best of the best!

He stumbled his way through my worker's compensation case. This is the best example of the exemplary and compassionate legal representation I received: When I asked about the months' worth of wages I had lost, he said in essence that I was SOL. He would not pursue my lost wages because there was not enough cash in it for him.

My enrolled debt amounted to 31,536.14. I agreed to pay Northstar legal group 571.00 a month for their services. I was instructed to avoid answering all calls from debt collectors while a team of legal personnel would be negotiating on my behalf a settlement with them. Time progresses and I continued to pay 571.00 monthly. On 12/9/2023 a loan was taken out by Northstar Legal Group through Versara Lending for a total of 18,200.00 under my name. My payments of 571.00 a month are now being directed to Versara Lending. To this very day there has been no progress in a settlement for a loan of 22,000.00 through Lending club, a loan I enrolled with Northstar Lending Group. I am receiving multiple calls on a daily basis from debt collectors. Calls are even coming to my work- a hospital operating room control desk reserved solely for surgical matters and concerns. My credit score is completely shot. Everytime I try and reach out to Northstar Legal Group I am put on hold for over 45 minutes and am never connected to anybody. The one time someone answered the phone she pretended not to hear me. I never get replies through their Northstar portal app and never get replies via email aside from please "call us". Today August 17th 2024 I drove an hour to their office on Washington ave Minneapolis. Their website said they were open until 5pm. I could not even find an entrance to their office. I am so concerned financially. Do I continue paying 571.00 a month indefinitely? Please, please help me. Thank you so much! Sincerely Dominic Bourbeau

    November 23rd, 3 years ago, I was involved in an accidental shooting. I had attended a house party…read moreat which I had planned to spend the night. I was shot in the left buttock while I was sleeping! Talk about a rude awakening??!!! The bullet hit 3 organs, my rectum, vagina and bladder. I required 2 major surgeries, a catheter for first 3 weeks and a colostomy bag, I named Lola, for 8 months. It was over a year worth of physical recovery with some residual bladder issues and ongoing emotional recovery from the trauma of a life changing experience. At the time this happened, I met with a couple of lawyers and was feeling extremely bummed out about the whole situation and truthfully, I had very little faith in attorneys and that they actually gave a damn about me as a person and what I was going through. Just as I was feeling I was done talking with attorneys, Pam Rochlin stopped by my house and everything changed. She was extremely kind to me and I could feel genuine empathy from her. I took Rochlin Law on for my case! Right before I was getting prepared to schedule my second surgery for colostomy take down, summer of 2020, Pam called me with extremely disappointing news. I'll never forget her voice while being told the claim had been denied by the home owner's insurance company. Pam assured me she'd do everything to find a way to fight the denial. I wasn't going to hold my breath and continued to remain positive, focusing on my upcoming surgery and recovery! I'm someone of immense faith, I had accepted my situation as part of my journey and I assumed Pam would give up on my case eventually, but I was so very wrong! She took the next couple of years to TRULY fight for me, meeting with a panel of attorneys, going above and beyond and finding any way to get me the payout that was deserved. Pam handed in the claim again earlier this year and this past summer 2022, the insurance company settled the claim, knowing they'd have Pam to face in court and she was not backing down without a fight!!! Even though Pam won for me by getting the Insurance Company to settle, she was apologetic she couldn't get me the full amount, but to me, who had accepted I might not get anything, she changed my whole world! The settlement allowed me re-start my life and Pam wholeheartedly fighting for me, restored my faith in attorneys and humanity in general. Pam was extremely kind to me and she genuinely FOUGHT for me to get what I deserved out of this unfortunate accident! I will be forever grateful to her and Rochlin Law for representing me with my case! I HIGHLY recommend working with Rochlin Law Firm, you will be made to feel like a human and you will have attorneys who actual fight for you! I named this chapter, "When I took it in the ass!" And if I have any advice for people in life, it's to "never take shit for granted, literally and metaphorically!" #WorldPeace
