Bennett & Belfort P.C.

My husband’s evil former employers put us in the unfortunate position of needing a lawyer when they challenged his and several other former employees eligibility for unemployment benefits. In the letter advising us of our impending hearing, there were several suggested law firms to call. This was the first one we contacted and were lucky enough to be connected to Attorney Michael Mason.
The lawfirm charged a flat fee and then gives a reduced rate flat fee if there’s an appeal. Mr. Mason was extremely affable and explained the process clearly. He took a lot of the anxiety out of the experience, because he was soft-​spoken, optimistic, and organized. I liked him too because he looked like Casey Affleck; my husband was impressed that he knew stuff about the Scottish Premier League.
The professionalism of Corrigan, Bennett and Belfort was highlighted on the day of the hearing, when our well-​prepared and calm Mr. Mason went up against the disorganized and nervous lawyer for the company. I also think his experience in the unemployment hearings office was a factor in our receiving the judgement so quickly. The next day – and the hearing didn’t finish until 2:30pm – we got notice in the mail that the company had lost and that we got to keep the unemployment. I was actually going to give the law firm five stars anyway, but getting notice so fast after Mr. Mason had advised us that that particular judge was usually very fast just affirmed his skills.
Should you ever also find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing an employment lawyer, I would definitely recommend this firm. They are (relatively) affordable, straightforward, professional, experienced and kind.
