Our Commitment to Our Clients
Focused Attention
You will never feel like your matter is being skimmed or rushed. We look closely at what happened, ask the right questions, and make sure the facts are understood before any decision is made. Your case gets the attention it requires from the attorney actually handling it.
Transparency at Every Stage
You will not wonder where your matter stands or what comes next. You will know what we are doing, why we are doing it, and where the next milestones are in your case.
An Aggressive Approach
The most effective way to get an employer to get serious about settlement is to push your claim forward to the point where the employer is forced to make a real decision. At Bodzy Law, we will not let your case languish.
While litigation is often a long process, we will keep your case moving within the bounds of the litigation system, so that it reaches a point where you can potentially get paid as soon as possible.
Reliable Communication
You will not wait days for answers or get routed through layers of staff. Your messages are answered promptly, and your attorney is reachable when something comes up. Communication stays consistent and organized so the process remains steady from start to finish.
