    “Mike helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life. It can be scary battling a big corporation, but I felt like I was always in control with Mike in my corner. I was being bullied and harassed in a work environment that was extremely hostile. Attorney McMinn was professional, knowledgeable and confident. The fact that I worked for one of the largest companies in the world didn?t intimidate Mike for a second. Mike is a top-notch communicator who is decisive and extremely well organized. He is amazingly attentive and always made me feel like he was devoting 100% of his time to my case. He went above and beyond, often returning my calls after hours to accommodate my schedule. Most importantly, Mike was able to win a settlement that far exceeded my expectations. Overall, I found my experience with Michael McMinn to be a very positive one, and I would strongly recommend him to anyone who is in need of an advocate and partner to defend their employee rights.”

  • Michael is incredibly knowledgeable of the law.
    Read More

    “Michael was the consummate professional. He represented me in a wrongful termination case in which my employer retaliated against me for making a work complaint. Michael is incredibly knowledgeable of the law. He patiently guided me through the legal process and delivered solid advice. He was extremely thorough and tenacious in negotiating with the opposing party's attorneys. He even ensured I received compensation after the company I took action against filed for bankruptcy. I hope I never have to, but I would definitely trust him to handle my case if I ever found myself in a similar situation.”

    “After a stressful and life changing wrongful termination, I felt very angry and helpless under my new circumstances.

  • I literally felt I was in the best hands possible. I fully recommend Attorney McMinn.
    Read More

    “Attorney McMinn went above and beyond both with his knowledge and kindness. My case was very complex because I had more than one boss making me uncomfortable about my race and ethnicity in the workplace. My outcome was very fair and he faught hard for that. Any type of settlement reached, despite " we are not admitting fault" being written in the other attorneys " Gag order" admits fault in my eyes. Attorney McMinn was ready for the long haul of federal court, I was not. He wanted to stand by my side and see this through. Let me not forget Karen, she is absolutely amazing. She kept me up to speed if Attorney McMinn was unavailable. When she saw I was anxious about the CHRO meetings, she talked me through the anxiety. I literally felt I was in the best hands possible. I fully recommend Attorney McMinn.”

  • I would highly recommend him for any employer/employee dispute.
    Read More

    “My husbands long time employer refused to provide him work accommodations when he disclosed to them he had a disability. Because of that, my husband was forced to resign. From the onset of the case, Attorney McMinn was very responsive to us. He listened to all my husbands concerns, and never once gave the impression that he was rushed for time, or that my husband was just a number among a multitude of clients. Throughout the process, Attorney McMinn shared with my husband all the pros and cons for the options he had, and allowed my husband to come to his own decisions without inserting any undue influence. In less than a year, the case was positively resolved with a settlement agreement. We would absolutely use Attorney McMinn again (although we hope we don’t have to), and I would highly recommend him for any employer/employee dispute.”
