Fifteen years ago, through no fault of my own, I found myself unemployed and facing a severance package. Uncertain about what to do, what my rights were, and under pressure from my employer to sign the agreement, I knew I needed professional help. That’s when I found Lecker and Associates. Their guidance, expertise, and support made all the difference. The results far exceeded my expectations, and I was extremely grateful for the way they handled my case. Fifteen years later, I turned to Lecker and Associates once again and received the same high standard of service and dedication. Once again, the results far exceeded my expectations. Lecker and Associates have earned my utmost respect and comes with my highest recommendation. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who needs knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate legal representation.

I highly recommend Ian Hurley, Nathan Whittingham and the team at Lecker & Associates. After having a terrible experience with my previous counsel from another law firm, I approached Ian with recommendation from a friend. Ian and his team graciously agreed to take over my case. Ian demonstrated that he truly understood and cared about my situation and provided clear and reasonable advice. He and his team handled everything with patience, efficiency, and professionalism. They set realistic expectations and delivered. Within less than 3 months, Ian was able to reach an acceptable settlement when it took my previous lawyer over a year to get nowhere. I'm truly grateful to Ian, Nathan and his team for helping me move forward and finally put a difficult chapter behind me. I would recommend Lecker & Associates to anyone who's in need for a professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated legal team.

Being laid off and let go is never an easy process. The stress, uncertainty, and anxiety make decision making extremely difficult. Thank you to Jared and Jass at Lecker & Associates for explaining my options and employment law. It’s one thing to be an expert in your profession, it’s quite another to try to comprehend the intricacies of employment law when stressed. Thank you again to Jared and Jass for diligently negotiating my severance package.
