Hired Law Firm

I hired Bates and Baum to represent me in my case with the USDA. I have nothing to say but good about this firm. Bev has gone out of his way to keep me informed about everything that is going on in my case. He always takes my call and I feel comfortable confiding in him about concerns. If I don't understand something he has no problem explaining so I'm not in the dark about anything that's happening in my case. He takes his time to write professional replies for my EEO claim. He's been in the business for many years and knows the laws to help win cases. I would recommend Bates and Baum.

Would not take my case: would not state why. They look for cut and paste case. If they have to do real work they pass you off. Or if the payoff is small they won’t take. It’s all about the money, and how fast.

No I have not hired an attorney for my Racial Discrimination case that I have filed with the EEOC. I have a NRTS Letter from the EEOC as well. No one from Bates and Baum ever contacted me. I would be happy to speak to someone at this firm if contacted.
