HKM Employment Attorneys LLP

Great experience! Dana is an excellent attorney that went above and beyond my expectations. very professional and friendly! This team makes you a priority from start to finish.

I never thought I'd need an attorney, but they did what needed to be done and i can't thank them enough for helping me through a difficult situation.

This company has an unfair and biased gatekeeping process. They're advertisement is deceptive. My experience with them has been discouraging. I felt like when dealing with these people I wanted to give up looking for justice against my employer. I highly recommend looking for employment lawyers who can be more focused on your case. Find a lawyer who can help you with your discrimination, retaliation, or disability related case, and is not a lead generation company. You have 90 days if you have a right to sue letter. Don't waste your time especially with companies like this. This is an honest review.

So Dana was my lawyer and she was very helpful. I’m very pleased with the outcome.

Working with HKM was my first time having to work with a lawyer and that felt scary because I didn’t know what that was going to look like. Dana Sniegocki was an amazing attorney and I am grateful I had her to represent me. When I felt confused, she helped me understand the process and whats next steps. I felt confident with her guidance and would highly recommend working with her. My case was on a contingency pay basis and that was so helpful to know that I didn’t have to pay for everything upfront. Before this experience I didn’t know that existed and I am very grateful I consulted with a lawyer for my case and had the ability to have someone represent me.

I was happy with my lawyer for almost two years and truly felt he was on my side. However, towards the end of my case—despite having a very strong claim—he seemed to back away and strongly urged me to accept a very small settlement. He pressured me into agreeing by emphasizing how expensive trial would be. What upset me the most was the way the settlement was structured. My lawyer ended up walking away with more money than I received, and I was left paying an unreasonable amount of taxes on money that should never have been categorized that way. I voiced my concern, but was told “this is usual.” Half of my settlement was labeled as lost wages, even though the opposing lawyers had argued my wage loss was only about 10%. In the end, I felt pressured, misled, and left with far less than what was fair. I regret trusting how the final stage of my case was handled.

I had hopes to get assistance from an attorney or at least a sit down conversation ,with all the great reviews. But with the minimum engagement I had with one of their representatives. I just don’t feel like I was heard or had the proper engagement to express my situation. I have challenges that makes it hard for me to explain my situation over the phone. And after 1 phone call. I received a email stating I wouldn’t be represented when I haven’t fully explained or provided everything I have as a reason for me to even been searching for an attorney. I guess you have to have years of wrongful treatment to get help 🫤

Choosing to work with Dana and the HKM team as my employment attorneys was the best decision I could have made during a very difficult time. I could never have imagined that my 45-year career would end in such an awful, and hurtful manner. With that said, Dana handled my case (and at times my emotions) in a professional and steadfast way as both an adviser and an advocate. She is an excellent communicator, knowledgeable in all aspects of employment law and is a skilled negotiator. I highly recommend Dana and HKM to anyone seeking legal representation hoping to achieve a most favorable outcome as I did.
