    I had the pleasure of working with Chris regarding a severance package. He was thorough, asked great questions, and made sure things I... hadn't thought about were covered and that I was being treated fairly. In addition to being happy with the quality of Chris' work, he was kind and even asked about my daughter. He clearly cares about people and that value came through in our conversations which I appreciated.read more
    My first consultation meeting with associate lawyer Mariel was very positive and helpful. I really appreciated her questions, empathy,... listening, and expertise and advice she was able to give even at the very beginning of my file. If my work situation doesn't improve, I do look forward to working with Mariel and the Achkar Law firm team to tackle the issues.read more
