Freking Myers & Reul Llc

Mark Napier was very professional, informative, patient and always took time to fully answer my questions and put my mind at ease! He is also very honest which I really appreciated!

Literally overnight earlier this year I found myself having trouble at work; we got a new boss and almost immediately he started pressuring me to resign from my position of 5.5 years. I was stunned and stressed. I had had no intention of leaving a job I liked and felt I was good at. After some more related things happened there I decided I needed to - at the very least - speak with an attorney. A local friend who is himself an outstanding attorney in Cincinnati suggested I contact FM&R. My first thought was, I am very small potatoes compared to the clients they must usually have... this is the best (workplace law) firm in the city... no way will they help me, which would be fine because no way I could afford them anyway. About a week later, though, I kept thinking about FM&R, and decided, what the heck, I am going to reach out to them via their web site... explain that I don't make much at my job (could prove this with a W-2) but will pay what I can. I filled out the form on their site late one night. Literally the next morning an FM&R employee emailed and gave me the phone # to call to set up a telephonic meeting with one of their attorneys. I made the call, we agreed on a price that would work for both the company and me, and I was given an appointment for the next day with one of FM&R's workplace law attorneys. Before then, though, I was to fill out an eight-page questionnaire which would help "my" attorney get up to speed on my "case" ... and email it in to the company. That next day is when I had the pleasure of "meeting" with the outstanding Ms. Elizabeth Newman. She could not have been a better mix, for me anyway, of professional and "real." I was very nervous at first but she was easy to talk with... explained things "on my level." She had completely read all parts of my questionnaire. She gave me her opinions... thoughts as to what she felt I should do next, etc. There were follow-up communications. In the end, I "won" my "case," in no small part thanks to Ms. Newman. I highly recommend her as well as FM&R in general. They are #1 for a reason. Thank you all; I appreciate things very much.

I highly recommend Freking Myers & Reul. My lawyers Elizabeth "Liza" Newman and Jon Allison were both very attentive, understanding, and extremely knowledgeable about employment law. Their care for me and my situation went above and beyond what was right in the eyes of the law, but what was right for me as a person trying to be valued as an employee and as an individual. I always felt heard and never did I feel like just another case on their docket. I don't have experience with legal situations and their usual costs, but I felt like I more than got my money's worth with this firm. Thank you so much Liza and Jon!

Our experience with this firm has been very positive. I particularly appreciated the clear communication regarding the consultation fee to review the situation and determine realistic next steps. Navigating the user-friendly website, completing the initial questionnaire, receiving a prompt response and meeting with an attorney all helped us understand the possibilities in a way we could comprehend. The initial support team was accommodating and professional. Jon Allison was patient, respectful and fully present during the review. His expertise and ability to sift through details, listen compassionately and outline options was reassuring. The objective was to reach a mutually agreeable plan of action and we did. Highly recommend!

Erin Heidrich was absolutely fantastic for us. She was kind, smart, and professional. Communication was great with her and she made us feel good about the likely outcome of the process we were going through. Would use her again for sure.
