I Was a Plaintiff in a Very Large Class Action
“Charles Field and team were my legal representation. I must say Charles was wonderful. He talked to me in a normal way. If lawyer speak was required, he would explain everything in terms that a normal person could understand. He was always positive about the case, even when there were setbacks. He was always kind, patient and compassionate to my situation. I consider him a friend more so than my legal representative. It has been a real pleasure getting to know him and his team.”

Finding a Top Employment Lawyer … Can Be the Proverbial Needle in the Haystack … I Found That Needle!
“The abrupt end of employment can be financially and emotionally disruptive and challenging to most people. Add factors such as age, gender, or an unpredictable job market; stress levels can be high. This uncertainty can exist even if a moderate settlement is on the table.
Suppose you think you’ve been mistreated and believe your severance should be more than just moderate. In that case, hiring someone who is an expert in employment law and an excellent strategist and negotiator is advisable. And, recognizing that some discussions may cause the former employee to feel marginalized and maligned, and resolution is often protracted, an essential quality to seek in such a lawyer is the rare but oh-so-significant human touch.
Most A-list employment law firms/attorneys represent defendant employers; finding a top employment lawyer representing the plaintiff/employee who possesses the requisite gamut of desired qualities and skills can be the proverbial needle in the haystack.
I found that needle! She’s Ella Zheng, Managing Partner of the Palo Alto and San Francisco Offices and Asian American Litigation and Finance Practice Group Chair at Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight!”

“The Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight team is extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. My experience with them began on Labor Day, when I decided I could no longer tolerate the terrible retribution from my company. I had worked for the company for several decades and last year I decided to formally request compensation equivalent to that of my male peers. My request was denied, and the retribution began.On Labor Day I sent an e-mail to Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight, and to my pleasant surprise David Sanford answered me in a few hours. We also spoke on the telephone and began to plan our strategy. The team assisted me in dealing with the resulting escalated company retaliation until my case was resolved in my favor. They were always available when needed and were very respectful and sensitive to the emotional and physical damage I was experiencing.Today I am enjoying the happiest times of my life and I owe much of my happiness to Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight.

I was informed every step of the way. I was in awe of the firm’s command of employment law. Amazed at their available resources and sense of obligation to fight for the rights of the individual. I always felt that my case was of the utmost importance to Sanford Heisler. The firm works tirelessly to ensure justice prevails and that you receive the best possible outcome under the law. I worked closely with Attorney Michael Palmer and Attorney David Tracey. They not only handled the litigation but sheltered me from the “hired bullies” working for the large insurance company. I always felt prepared and protected. Attorney Palmer and Attorney Tracey were always; receptive, accessible, realistic, strategically focused on my best interest. During my litigation additional issues arose, I was always treated respectfully, and I continually received pragmatic assessments of the circumstances, and of the potential difficult process that would lay ahead. I could not ask for better representation than what I received. I was fortunate Sanford and Heisler agreed to represent me. They are by far one of the best employment firms in the country.”

Collectively the SHSM team represented the highest level of professionalism, integrity, and passionate care for justice that I have ever witnessed in my career.
Like many individual plaintiffs, I was faced with a corporate defendant that was much more resourceful. The SHSM team never showed any hesitation in representing me or wavered in their resolution to right the wrong. The attorneys and assistants worked through maternity, coronavirus infection, over-night depositions and many other challenges for nearly three years to ultimately deliver a resounding success!

Extraordinary authenticity, perseverance, tenacity, professionalism, and expertise.
“That’s exactly what Ella and her team possess – the ability to strategically position the case, go above and beyond to find the breakthrough.”
– Female Executive at a multinational company, a Former Client
Extraordinary authenticity, perseverance, tenacity, professionalism, and expertise.
.
I am incredibly grateful for Ms. Ella Zheng and her team at Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight. I met Ms. Ella Zheng through friends’ referrals in 2017. My case seemed straightforward, some would even say too good to be true. It mainly involved breach of contract by the American stakeholders in a US – China joint venture. The case was in fact very complex due to various rules in China related to retired executives at that time. Before I met Ella, I tried to retain lawyers in big international firms to represent me on this case, yet they all gave up, for various reasons, after some back-and-forth communication.
No one around me was optimistic about the outcome of the case where I, as a Chinese national, was to litigate against an American company in the United States. However, Ella and her team demonstrated extraordinary authenticity, perseverance, tenacity, professionalism, and expertise. She made relentless efforts in communicating with me, gathering information, and implementing rigorous step-by-step work process among various stakeholders, which led to the successful filing of the case. Her swift action took the defendants by surprise. Defendants had to change their legal team multiple times to handle the matter, yet were still unable to keep up with Ella’s strategies. My case was eventually resolved successfully through mediation, ending with me getting a terrific settlement.
It’s been over three years since my case ended, yet I still become emotional whenever I think of it. Cross-border litigation requires a legal team that not only has an enhanced level of knowledge about the specialized areas of law, but also an acute understanding and grasp of relevant rules and regulations involving foreign jurisdictions. That’s exactly what Ella and her team possess – the ability to strategically position the case, go above and beyond to find the breakthrough, and at the same time provide her clients with ample guidance and analysis, and also instill them with the needed confidence to engage in the process. At last, I want to thank Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight for the legal representation. My best wishes to the firm.

She and her team never once wavered in believing in my case, and helped me not only get a good settlement, but also in sending the long-overdue message to my company that their mistreatment of people of color would no longer be tolerated nor will we stay quiet any longer. Ella’s team clearly demonstrated their expertise in employment discrimination law throughout my case. I felt that they always had my best interests at heart. They were very professional but also very good, patient listeners. I used to blame myself for what happened, but now I have clarity and closure about the reality of the situation and can confidently move forward with my life and my future endeavors.”

.
Ella and her colleagues at Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight helped me with my claims against my former employer. They have been very attentive, patient, and knowledgeable. In the entire process, I always felt I was in good hands with the representation. Every call was well prepared, and they frequently followed up as needed.
Employment laws, especially the racial discrimination and wrongful termination part, can get very complicated, and oftentimes proving the right point doesn’t automatically translate into getting the right outcome, yet fortunately, I was given all the patience and detailed explanation I needed. Ella and everyone else all have been empathetic to what I was going through, with the expertise, diligence, and dedication they put in my case that eventually helped me significantly in a critical time of my life.

“When you first seek legal help, it is natural to feel overwhelmed. In my experience, it is best to have a guide who is knowledgeable, honest, and hard-working. My legal team at Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight – Russell Kornblith and Carolin Guentert – navigated me through complex and difficult questions with steady assurance. As a survivor of sexual abuse, I had felt powerless before coming out against my abuser and the institution that employed him. My attorneys made me feel like I had the power to hold them to account for their actions. Russell and Carolin were consistently professional, communicative, and receptive to my needs during the legal process. As a team, we overcame legal hurdles and took steps towards a favorable resolution. With Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight I feel that I obtained the best possible outcome for my case. I give Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight the highest recommendation to represent your legal needs and advocate for your rights.”

They will be there for you and fight for you.
.
I feel so grateful that I found Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight. This was my first experience retaining an attorney, and after being terminated from my job during COVID, I was shocked and devastated. When I first spoke to Alok Nadig at Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight he listened to me carefully and responded with empathy. He answered every question I had with thorough detail. I knew he was the right choice.
Throughout the entire process, Alok was so responsive, kind, understanding, and proactive. He is incredibly intelligent and knowledgeable, and simply an all-around superb advocate. At times, this process was emotionally draining, frustrating, and confusing. It can be hard to revisit a painful experience, but Alok was always there to provide clarity and support. He never invalidated my feelings or concerns; he never condescended to me or belittled me; and he believed in my case. He is an exceptional lawyer whom I have tremendous respect for, and I feel very fortunate that he represented me. My interactions with other attorneys and legal support staff at Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight were also excellent. It’s clear they have assembled a great team.
It is tempting to shrink away from situations where you’ve been wronged, but if you have the right representation, you’ll find the fortitude to face the challenge. My advice to anyone seeking representation is to find a firm that makes you feel empowered, and in my experience, Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight is equipped to do that. They will be there for you and fight for you.

Highly Effective Representation
“I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation [for] Charles Field’s highly effective representation in advancing the financial mismanagement litigation that I sought to undertake.”
– Thomas G. Bering, MD
Highly Effective Representation
“I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation [for] Charles Field’s highly effective representation in advancing the financial mismanagement litigation that I sought to undertake last summer. At that time I wrote an essay to your firm, describing my retirement fund manager’s chronic underperformance vs. market benchmarks, which then culminated in an abominable series of executive decisions surrounding the 2020 COVID Crash.
I felt that I had been exploited for their management fees, and taken advantage of as a result of their negligence. By the summer, I decided I had nothing to lose by submitting the information to Sanford Heisler for review. I am grateful that it soon made its way across the country to Mr. Field. From our earliest discussions, I could tell that Charles Field understood the gravity of the mistreatment I suffered, and that he was empathetic towards my plight. I got the sense that Mr. Field would leave no stone unturned in getting to the bottom of the case.
Charles Field’s analysis of the materials I submitted showed me that is exactly what he did. Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight drilled down on everything and identified several unethical practices, such as investing in vehicles that featured poor performance records, yet maximized management fees. In calling out the unscrupulous behaviors and general incompetence, Mr. Field cited FINRA and finance industry standards. When I read his final brief, I knew that my interests had received the best advocacy possible.
Going forward, I feel confident that Mr. Field and the Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight team have given me the best shot at a successful result in litigation.”

There aren’t enough words to explain my gratitude for the Sanford Heisler team. As a strong woman of color, I worked in a mostly white male-dominated university for over fifteen years. As an employee, I rose through the ranks quickly because of the quality of my work. After all of those years of dedicated service, I never expected to experience discrimination. During our first meeting, I was in shock, broken, humiliated, and traumatized by my former employer’s treatment.
I was met with compassion when I walked into their office. The Sanford Heisler team listened to me and validated my experience. They gave me the words to help understand what happened. They believed me.
Taking the step to obtain justice was not an easy decision, but they explained the process, terminology, and any other questions every step of the way. She helped me craft emails I needed to send to make sure the messaging was consistent and solid. They always responded to my emails promptly. I never felt like I was “just some client.” Suing a large university was not an easy decision, but I am so thankful that I had this law firm fighting.
I am grateful for the outcome of the case but even more so impressed with the treatment. I will never forget the Sanford Heisler team].

Nicole Wiitala did a terrific job on my case.
“Nicole Wiitala did a terrific job on my case that involved employment discrimination and retaliation within the finance industry. From the start of our work together, Nicole synthesized the information I gave her into well-reasoned legal arguments on my behalf. She also quickly learned the nuances of my industry’s compensation structures and leveraged that information to further strengthen my case. Finally, Nicole consistently delivered high-quality work in a timely fashion which shortened the duration of time before I could formally separate from my former firm.

I can unequivocally, with 100% confidence, recommend Michael Palmer
“I was recently involved in a very complex legal situation that required representation from multiple lawyers in 2 different states. My case encompassed several areas of the law including employment, workers comp, and personal injury. As you can imagine, this was a very difficult and stressful time in my life and I was fortunate to have Michael Palmer represent me as my employment counsel. Michael went above and beyond the call of duty and was able to successfully negotiate a settlement for unpaid overtime against a major pharmaceutical company. His communication skills are outstanding. There was never a time when I had to wonder what Michael was doing for me. In addition to allowing me to review every document before taking action, both Michael and his legal assistant kept in constant contact with me providing updates at every turn. I found Michael to be thorough, dedicated, patient, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. But even more important to me was Michael was empathetic to my situation.

Sincere Passion for Their Work
“There is a reason that this is one of the best rated law firms in the country. I am forever grateful for Mr. Sanford’s sage advice, the hard work and patience demonstrated by his team, and the final outcome of my case.”
– Former Client
Sincere Passion for Their Work
“I could not have been more fortunate to have come across the law firm of Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight. After a desperate search on the internet for national employment firms when employment lawyers in my own state left me incredibly disappointed, they responded in less than 24 hours, and arranged a phone conversation with Mr. David Sanford shortly thereafter. Even the young intake specialist understood the details of my case better than experienced lawyers at other firms. Throughout the process, I was impressed by the level of commitment, legal knowledge, analysis, thorough research and review, confidence, and strong document preparation by this firm. Most importantly, this is a firm that practices law ethically. What sets them apart is their sincere passion for their work – from the firm’s intake coordinators all the way up to the partners.
The discrimination that I as a woman of color faced at work had left me emotionally and physically distressed, and I was so appreciative of their genuine empathy and concern around my health. Moreover, they are not deterred by large and influential employers, and have experience across a wide range of industries. They evaluated the merits of my case, examined the evidence and made a compelling argument that completely disarmed the defending party. At the end, I was able to get my former employer to agree to a majority of my terms in the settlement. There is a reason that this is one of the best rated law firms in the country. I am forever grateful for Mr. Sanford’s sage advice, the hard work and patience demonstrated by his team, and the final outcome of my case.”

David, Adan Martinez, and Mariel Brunman were extremely classy, professional, and level-headed throughout the entire process and brought a tremendous amount of comfort and support to me. My opinions were valued, my doubts always heard, and I was always reassured with full transparency, integrity, and partnership. David and his team built a strong case and ultimately managed to reach a successful outcome through mediation that not only sent a strong message on wrongful termination but it gave me my credibility and confidence back. David and his team are competent, strategic, and a powerful opponent. They fought for me and were the voice I needed and wanted to represent me through this time.”

A tremendous result.
“David Sanford and his team achieved a tremendous result in obtaining a confidential-seven-digit settlement from my company, and measurable change. I had approached my former company through its internal channels about the stark gender pay disparity. Unfortunately, my concerns went unanswered. That is until David Sanford and team reached out to them. We held a confidential mediation and settled the case without filing a lawsuit. All the while David and team were professional, attentive, passionate, and wicked smart. As a corporate employment attorney myself, I can say that David is the most skilled plaintiff’s lawyer that I’ve ever met. He is caring, humble, ever graceful, and unwavering in character. Other lawyers may huff and puff, but defense counsel know that David has the skills and the bench strength to follow through with his demands. I couldn’t have asked for a better team.

My case was not only complex because of all the types of claims I had, but we were dealing with representatives from the other side that were trying very hard to make things as difficult as possible for me. Danielle was strategic throughout the process by cutting through red tape, holding the other side accountable, and very thoughtful and persuasive in presenting my case and corresponding liability to the other side.
It is rare to find a lawyer that is of superior quality and intelligence, but that is what I found in Danielle. Although my “Dream Team” is a force to be reckoned with, at the same time, they were consistently kind, compassionate, and service-oriented when working with me. There wasn’t a moment that I didn’t feel that I was in good hands.
My case settled during the pre-litigation stages of the case. I am most thankful, grateful, and happy with the settlement they got me. I can’t think of a better group of people to work with.”

Professional, Caring, Persistent and Tenacious
“Alok and Alex were just the team I needed to battle the good ol’ boy culture that resonated throughout the private family conglomerate.”
– A Former Client, President and General Manager
Professional, Caring, Persistent and Tenacious
“I contacted David Sanford at Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight after I was suddenly terminated from my executive role after twenty-three years of service. I shared my story with David and Alok. The company culture had always been hostile towards women. I was one of the very few women in an executive role. I survived by keeping my head down and consistently outperforming my male peers but was suddenly replaced by a man I suspected was paid more to perform the same job I did. We filed claims under the Equal Pay Act and Title VII. Despite the opposition’s constant delay tactics, which was almost three years’ worth, Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight were professional, caring, persistent and tenacious when necessary. Alok and Alex were just the team I needed to battle the good ol’ boy culture that resonated throughout the private family conglomerate.”
