I engaged Thomas Fleming of Olshan Frome Wolosky to handle a severance negotiation and potential wrongful termination claim against my former employer. His background in labor and employment litigation was evident; he understood the legal landscape and provided a solid, if somewhat by-the-book, strategy. His analysis of the non-compete clause was particularly sharp, drawing on his recognized expertise. Ultimately, we reached a settlement that was fair, which was the primary goal. However, the experience felt transactional. Communication was inconsistent—emails sometimes took several days for a response, and it was difficult to get a clear sense of timeline expectations without persistent follow-up on my part. While his legal competence from NYU and his firm's reputation are not in question, the client service aspect felt like it was operating on a different, less attentive level. For a complex, high-stakes commercial litigation matter, his recognized skills might be perfectly suited. For my more personal employment issue, the representation was professionally competent but lacked the proactive communication and personal touch I had hoped for from an attorney with his depth of experience.
