We understand the challenges facing employees when they seek just wages, when they experience wrongful termination or discrimination at work. We know the difficulties when consumers seek compensation for injuries from accidents or when policyholders claim insurance benefits.. For more than two decades, our law firm has protected the rights of employees and consumers. Our consistent record of winning results speak of how we worked to make a difference in the lives of clients and their families.. Helping our clients means freeing them from the burden of paying out-of-pocket costs to bring their case in court. Our legal system in reality requires the readiness to use considerable resources to obtain the evidence necessary to win. In fighting for their rights in court, we take that responsibility ourselves. Our clients do not pay us until we win or recover compensation as a result of our work.. Our legal system is adversarial. One party seeks to recover from the other who naturally opposes that party’s claim. Protecting our clients thus means fighting for them tirelessly, recognizing that employees and consumers do not get what they deserve. They get what they fight for!. Throughout these years, we accomplished much for our clients. With their trust on us, we will continue to do more.

We each spent over a decade defending private and government employers in labor and employment matters. In 2020, we launched Arin | James LLP to bring our talents to the side of the employees. Contact us for a free consultation.

We cultivate individualized client relationships through prompt communication. Each phone call is greeted with the opportunity to directly speak with the attorney, placing the client and their concerns first. Timely communication allows for meticulous care and attention to be invested in our clients, maximizing compensation and leading to optimal results. Just like any other relationship, we know that communication is the key to having a solid foundation with clients and the ultimate success of one’s case. A happy customer will tell their friends; an unhappy customer will tell the world.
