After interviewed many attorneys for my national origin discrimination case, I finally and very luckily found this law firm. Unlike cases such as traffic accident or not paying overtime, etc., national origin discrimination case is typically very difficult. Many attorneys shy away my case, though evidence solid, and from their responses I could see their incompetence. Coming from immigration lawyer background, this law firm has great enthusiasm to help new immigrant and very adequately represented me to seek for best compensation. As a professional myself, I could tell this law firm is very high quality and detailed oriented in its documentation preparation and communication with Court and Respondent party. I don't think I could have found better law firm than this one. I read some review online regarding their high fee before hired them. Yes, their fee is higher than others and that is the high quality you would receive. I would highly recommend this law firm.

Betsy Havens and the team at Strong Advocates are the nicest and most professional lawyers I have ever dealt with. They truly cared about my case and put in hours above and beyond what was called for. She kept me in the loop on all the legal proceedings and took the time explain to me in clear terms what this process was going to look like. During my demur the Judge even commented at one point saying "Never before has someone come so well prepared for a demur, I can see that you care a lot about your client." Betsy Havens is the first call I make for legal advice!
