"Jessica Block has been the attorney and informal general counsel to my
consulting firm for nearly twenty years. During that
time she has provided advice and counsel on everything from complex
jurisdictional issues to personnel complaints, as well as informal counsel
on a range of labor and contract matters. She understands the work we do,
and she knows my colleagues. I have always felt that her legal acumen is
balanced by her understanding of human situations--the best kind of counsel."

"Sig Roos is one of those rare attorneys who consistently listens to his clients,
makes insightful recommendations, and is cost conscious. He is diligent and
resourceful, and understands not only the law, but also our business. He always
responds to requests and meets deadlines in a timely fashion, and is a pleasure
to work with. I have worked with him for years and have always been pleased
with the results he has obtained for us."

"Joining a national company with sales offices in every major US City was a very stressful life event for me. I saw tremendous advantages to joining a larger company; but when I was presented with an employment agreement that was filled with onerous provisions, I decided that I needed professional help. Jessica Block immediately identified the problems with the agreement and worked with the General Counsel of the organization to fix them. She was firm but reasonable and did everything possible to make herself available on very short notice. Her professionalism and sense of perspective ensured that I would not walk away from a great opportunity."

"Sig Roos has provided invaluable advice to us on a number of matters, including one having the attention of Senior Management, in a considered, pragmatic and cost-effective manner. Sig is the perfect combination of raw intelligence, commonsense, and old-fashioned Yankee frugalness (on fees only!). Over time, Sig has become a very good friend of mine and one of my most trusted confidantes on matters legal and otherwise."

"When faced with a difficult work based disability issue, I found Jessica Block to
be enormously helpful. Part legal advisor, part navigator, part coach, she
enabled me to resolve the problem with wisdom, patience, persistence and an
understated sophistication about the complexities of the law and
inter-personal dynamics. I would recommend her in a heartbeat."

"Jessica Block did superb work on my behalf, including giving advice and encouragement and building my confidence in the strength of my case through explanations of how employment law applied to my situation. The motions she submitted to the court convinced me of her ingenuity in seeking solutions that eluded two previous law firms representing me. Her succinct summaries of the salient details and chronology of my case before the judge and later, before a mediator, cut away the emotion and anger I felt against my previous employer that overshadowed my beliefs about the case. This helped me to focus on the merits of the case as they would be evaluated by an outsider. Jessica displayed integrity and fairness in representing me. Perhaps the most important result of her work during mediation was to give me a feeling of control that I never experienced in my previous dealings with my employer. Her work during litigation and mediation made me grateful that the intelligent application of the law can be so powerful in bringing fairness to an unjust situation."
