Solid Representation, Mixed Communication

Emilia Janisch handled my labor and employment dispute competently, leveraging her recognized expertise in management-side labor law. She provided strong legal strategies, particularly in negotiating workplace disputes, though her responsiveness sometimes lagged. While her experience was evident, I found the communication during the process less consistent than expected. The outcome was favorable, but the journey felt slightly disjointed. Overall, a capable attorney with room to improve in client engagement.

Highly Skilled in Employment Law

Emilia Janisch is an exceptionally knowledgeable attorney in labor and employment law. I hired her to handle a complex workplace discrimination case, and her deep understanding of litigation and management-side employment law was evident from the start. She provided clear, strategic advice and negotiated a favorable settlement that met all my objectives. While her legal expertise is outstanding, I wish her response time to emails could be slightly faster—though I understand how demanding her practice must be. Recognized by Best Lawyers, Emilia’s reputation is well-earned. I’d recommend her to anyone facing employment law challenges, particularly in management-side disputes. Her professionalism and attention to detail are truly top-notch.

Competent but Inconsistent Experience

Emilia Janisch handled my labor and employment case with a solid grasp of the legal nuances, particularly in management-side litigation—a strength highlighted by her recognition from Best Lawyers. Her expertise in labor law was evident, especially when navigating a complex workplace dispute involving wrongful termination claims. However, while she demonstrated a strong command of the relevant statutes and case law, her communication during the process was sometimes delayed, leading to occasional frustration. The initial consultations were thorough, but follow-up responses could have been more timely. Overall, I would describe her as competent but not exceptional in client responsiveness. The resolution was favorable, but I felt the journey could have been smoother with more consistent engagement. For those prioritizing legal acumen over communication speed, she’s a capable choice.

Emilia Janisch demonstrated a strong grasp of labor and employment law during my case. Her expertise in Litigation - Labor and Employment, as recognized by Best Lawyers, was evident in her strategic approach. However, response times were occasionally slow, and I often had to follow up to get updates. While she clearly knows her field, clearer communication and more proactive updates would have made the experience smoother. For complex employment disputes, her legal knowledge is valuable, but managing expectations on responsiveness is key.
