Video Transcript: What are your founding principles
We focus on the client to serve the client’s interests using our expertise in employment law and doing a thorough investigation into the client’s situation. We listen first to really understand where the client’s been through, what the client’s been through, what their desired outcomes are, and then we work as a team.
