Sabri

After receiving an unexpected job elimination I reached out to Laurie’s firm. I told Laurie what I wanted, and she was able to successfully negotiate on my behalf for a better-than-offered agreement. While this was a very stressful time for me, she really kept me informed on the progress of the case. I would recommend Laurie Morrison to anyone who needs a resolution of issues involving employment and retirement benefits.

“Mrs. Morrison was consistent to say the least, which is a good thing as at times I was overwhelmed with the idea of battling such a large company. She was dutiful in her ability to be reached via all modes of communication. In the end my case was settled for what I believe to be a reasonable monetary amount. I would recommend Mrs. Morrison without hesitation.”
