Jeffrey S. Bagnell, Esq., LLC

I was terminated immediately upon return from an approved FMLA leave in August 2017. I was employed at a top Fortune 500, multi-billion dollar company based in the NYC metropolitan area.nnAfter extensive research and initial meetings with a few top employment law firms in the NYC & CT areas, I decided to partner with Attorney Bagnell based on his extensive background in the employment law space, accomplishments per prior cases, professionalism and his confidence in representing me against a potentially formidable opponent with a large in-house counsel team. In addition, the 1:1 relationship and ease of accessibility were extremely important components of my ultimate decision as were rapport and trust.nnFrom the outset, Jeff was transparent, direct and consistently kept me abreast of the progress of the case coupled with clear explanations along every step of the process. He was prompt in responding to my many question and also in relaying updates from my previous employer. Furthermore, he communicated with opposing counsel in a straightforward manner and navigated their often arcane processes with aplomb.nnAttorney Bagnell very successfully achieved an outcome which exceeded my expectations due to his strong negotiation techniques and his ability to expertly manage the overall process. I cannot stress enough the confidence with which I highly recommend Jeff. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him and appreciate everything he did for me during a stressful time.

I highly recommend the service of Attorney Bagnell as well as those of his law firm. Prior to discussing my legal situation with Attorney Bagnell I felt somewhat defeated as I was being harassed and eventually terminated by my employer after being diagnosed with lung cancer.nAttorney Bagnell provided valuable legal advice on the strengths and weaknesses of pursuing civil litigation. He explained in very clear language the strategy of the case which was essential to understand prior to proceeding with litigation against a large multi-national company with enormous resources.nOnce I decided to move forward with the litigation I was immediately impressed by his work ethic, insight, and intellectual capacity to effectively manage the case to a positive conclusion for me.nDuring the period of litigation Attorney Bagnell was supportive and always available to discuss developments and next steps.nDuring my career as an executive in large companies I had the responsibility of dealing with lawyers on a multitude of issues. In my opinion Attorney Bagnell is one of the very best.nI have repeatedly recommended him to a number of people and do so here again.
