I have been called a "true believer" repeatedly in the twenty-plus years I have fought employers (the largest employers are usually my fav cases). The "true believer" description comes from how clear it is that I believe in my clients' cases and that I believe employers must be held accountable. It is unusual to have spent so many years focused exclusively on unlawful firings (instead of all employee cases). But I knew it was what I would do from the start. And my knowledge, experience, and true belief is your gain :)
