Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.This attorney took her time to assist me with an extremely stressful situation. She made herself immediately available to meet with me, thereby reducing the anxiety by which I was engulfed. She was compassionate, very knowledgeable, and very thorough. She not only went above and beyond in a legal capacity, but on a personal level as well. I highly recommend Attorney Bassock!
Working with Irene on my wrongful termination case was a pleasure. She is knowledgeable and has the ability to make you feel at ease during a difficult time.

I would highly recommend Irene.
Irene was absolutely amazing! We connected right away and I knew I was able to trust her guidance. Her empathy, her presence, and her heart were felt immediately. I was dealing with a false performance review and she guided and coached me through the whole process- before meetings with my manager- what and how to behave and respond; after meeting debriefs for next steps; what and how to respond to emails; how to handle conversations with HR; and finally what to write in my last email to the company to ask for what I deserve. She gave me the absolute confidence to have these convos and to move forward with my case. Her knowledge in the HR space and the business space made a huge impact because she totally understood where I was coming from and was able to guide accordingly. I highly recommend her!! She is incredible in all ways! Thank you, thank you, thank you Irene!!!

Irene is a paramount and compassionate professional. Through the durationn of my case she proactively kept me up to date on next steps and potential avenues of approach. Should I need an employment attorney in the future, Irene will get my call. Highly recommend.
Attorney Bassock was extremely helpful, responsive and provided ample feedback to my questions. She was easy to work with and readily communicated with me via email and phone as needed to offer clarification and resolve my concerns. Overall I highly valued all advice given; and she enabled me to effectively negotiate all issues in my favor. I was very pleased with the services she provided and would gladly hire her again.
I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Irene for many years as we were coworkers at a financial services company. Irene was incredibly well respected by her peers and leadership. When I found myself in need of legal services Irene was my go to attorney. She is extremely knowledgeable and she truly cares about people and works tirelessly on their behalf. If you need an attorney I highly recommend Irene. You will be in very capable hands.
I can't think of what I'd do without Attorney Bassock, helping me navigate through an employment agreement. She was able to quickly identify a resolution, bringing together the pieces (contract and state statues). Steadily looking for solutions. Her real experience and perspective in labor law are invaluable. She brings a keen focus on client interests.
Working with Irene was a great experience. She was referred to me during a time when I needed some legal support for an unfortunate issue at work. She was professional, but showed compassion and resonance for what I was going through. I needed that given I never had to deal with any legal matters. She was the right choice and I trusted her throughout the process. I strongly recommend Irene.
I recently worked with Irene on an issue I was having with my employer. It was a very stressful situation but Irene was extremely supportive and understanding of what I was going through. She provided both comfort and solid legal advice that made me feel that I had someone on my side to help me through it. The situation was resolved with a better outcome than I had expected. I would highly recommend her.
