Allison Lynn Martin

A skilled and dedicated advocate for my small business

I hired Allison Martin to handle a complex wage and hour dispute brought by a former employee against my small retail business. While her official recognition in tax law is noted, her practical expertise in employment law was immediately apparent. She navigated the intricacies of New York labor regulations with confidence, clearly explaining my obligations and the potential risks. Allison was particularly adept at dissecting the claimant's allegations, identifying several procedural weaknesses that allowed us to negotiate from a position of strength. Her strategy was pragmatic and focused on a resolution that avoided costly litigation, which I deeply appreciated. The outcome was a fair settlement that protected my business without setting a problematic precedent. Throughout the process, Allison was knowledgeable, patient, and clearly committed to my case. My only minor critique would be that during particularly busy periods, there were occasional delays in email responses, sometimes taking a full business day. However, her associate was always available for urgent matters. For a lawyer with two years of experience, her poise and substantive knowledge are impressive. I would confidently recommend her to any business owner facing employment-related challenges.
