I just want to take a moment to extend my gratitude to Amanda, the founder of Barrett & Farahany and the staff she employs. I had the pleasure of speaking with Kathy Sullivan this afternoon. Kathy and I "played phone tag" for a day, however, she continued to follow up with me until we had the opportunity to talk through the details of my case.
What I appreciated most about Kathy, is that she listened attentively, she responded in a manner, which I found to be truthful and transparent, she asked all of the right questions, she was matter-of-fact, yet kind and supportive and after she gained a complete understanding of my situation, she provided me with a realistic probable outcome and great advice. After my conversation with Kathy, I knew I had made the right decision and took the best and most appropriate first step with my employer, which allowed me to feel comfortable moving forward, considering how I handled matters prior to contacting your law firm.
Although, your firm will not be representing me at this time, in the event I need to seek counsel in the future, I am extremely confident in your firm's abilities to handle my case. More importantly, I feel that you all would have my best interest at heart, which is critical when ordinary people are typically not in the best predicament to fight people in position of power (the little guy vs. the big corporation), as you well know.
It's great to know a firm like yours exists and not only will you be my first point of contact for employment law, you will be top of mind when others in the area are in need of a credible and highly regarded employment law attorney.
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO TO BRING "JUSTICE AT WORK!"

I want to express my extreme satisfaction with the very high level of professionalism and skill that I've experienced from everyone who has been handling my case. The thoroughness and detail in the documents that have been submitted to the court are very impressive. I can tell that the lawyers involved in my case (A.J. Lakraj and Benjamin Stark) are very committed to what they do and put a great deal of thought into their decisions. Diana Howe has also been of great help and is always exceptionally quick in returning e-mails to me.
What I like best about my experience with this firm and the staff mentioned is that I feel like my opinions are valued. Even though I probably express those opinions/thoughts far too often and ask a ton of questions, I always get the answers I need. I am very thankful for that. My thoughts on the case aren't just simply ignored or labeled as unimportant. The attorneys actually give them thought and weigh them against the case to determine how effective they would be. I feel like a part of the process and not just stuck sitting on the sidelines while someone else makes all the decisions.
Even if my case doesn't conclude in my favor I would still speak highly of those who have been working with me. I don't believe it could be done any better.
I would absolutely recommend this firm to anyone else. Especially if the quality of service and professionalism provided by A.J., Benjamin and Diana is equal to all of those employed by the firm.

Aj was amazing. Absolutely no complaints about him or any of the staff. Every time time I called or emailed I always received a call or email back that day. Was never kept out of the loop and was always Informed when something was going on. Completely satisfied.

Amanda Farahany refused to represent me simply because I lacked the funds as I am indigent. Yet months later she wants to be friends on Facebook and shortly thereafter invites me to her home to contribute to her friends re-election bid. I asked Ms. Farahany to stop soliciting money from me but she never responded. I continued to receive robocall-style Facebook messages from Ms. Farahany asking me to confirm if I would attend this fundraiser at her home. Each time I asked her to stop harassing me but the harassment only ended once I blocked her access to my Facebook account. I contacted the State Bar of Georgia and they referred me to the FCC. We never had an attorney-client relationship because I did not have the money she wanted for my case. I was sexually harassed at work and my management team refused to protect me. I complained to my corporate office but they eventually made up lies to try justifying terminating my employment. Ms. Farahany gives many interviews and claims to fight for the poor and those victimized by sexual harassment but she never helped me. This is my review.
