Helmer Friedman is a fantastic batch of lawyers! Andrew, Lincoln, and Courtney took great care of us as we navigated a very traumatic and stressful injustice. These guys are the Biblical model of "Wise as Serpents and Innocent as Doves." They fought hard for us with the highest standard of integrity and ethics.

[...] I hired the Helmer-Friedman firm after being mistreated from an employer. Greg and Andrew's knowledge and experience is so incredibly vast they informed of of actually how many violations had incurred during our employment---which was way more than we knew. You may think you know your full rights, but you don't. They do! These situations always tend to get personally uncomfortable very fast, especially for women. Greg and Andrew genuinely do care for you and you can feel it. Opening up to them is actually easier than to your own family. That's exactly how they fight for you---like family. I have known lawyers all over the country in many different specialties, Greg and Andrew are BY FAR the ONLY firm I would ever go back to for anything!

Courtney M Abrams. represented me in a case, I can not express how reliable and trustworthy she was. She always kept me informed, and when I called ( which was numerously) Courtney always responded and or called me back immediately. Courtney was gentle, thoughtful and knowledgeable. I would not ever hesitate to recommend her.

Best Employment Law Attorney - Although Andrew Friedman primarily represents plaintiffs in employment law matters, he has provided employment law advice to my company since I founded it in 2001. Mr. Friedman is obviously extremely experienced, very thoughtful, intelligent and he really cares about his clients. He treats me with the utmost care and attention making himself available at night and on weekends when I have had urgent matters to discuss. Mr. Friedman always makes sure to inform me about the pros & cons of various scenarios. I find him to be incredibly ethical and trustworthy. Whether a plaintiff or a potential defendant, I use Mr. Andrew H. Friedman.
