Having the right legal advisor to help you navigate the stress of a termination is essential. Attorney Phelan clearly understands the law. He applied it to my specific circumstances, providing sound advice. Just as important however, he was patient and compassionate. My wife and I were not treated like prospective clients or billable hours, we were treated as human beings. Gary took the time to understand the details, fully evaluate the options, articulate the possible impacts and tactfully offer his honest opinion about our path forward. We simply cannot imagine a better Attorney for labor and employment matters.

After reading many reviews highly recommending Attorney Phelan, I contacted him regarding an employment discrimination case. Attorney Phelan asked all of the necessary questions to paint a picture of exactly what had happened, and to ensure he understood even the smallest details. After this case was settled, I asked him to look into a second case, which he accepted. I was very pleased with the outcomes of both cases. Throughout the entire process Attorney Phelan was easy to reach and always kept me informed. It was obvious that Attorney Phelan was well-versed in all of the relevant laws, rules, and regulations concerning my cases. In both instances he was able to negotiate outcomes which were better than I had hoped and expected. I would not hesitate to recommend Attorney Phelan and his firm.

Mitchell and Sheahan Law firm is arguably one of the best law firms I’ve come across. I did a few consults with various Attorneys and Firms looking for assistance for my case, and the interactions had left me disappointed. That is until my meeting with attorney Reese Mitchell. He was recommended by a colleague and the difference of service was undeniable. Attorney Mitchell was professional, and might I add extremely knowledgeable. He took his time to hear out my particular case and was transparent about all my options. He made me feel like I could trust him, and not once ever did he give me false hope. Attorney Mitchell is what you would call a straight shooter. When we interact, he is always courteous and ensures he explains the details and stages of my case in a way I can understand. I would recommend anyone dealing with employment and human rights issues to seek counsel from Mitchell & Sheehan, you won’t be disappointed.

I can’t thank you [Gary Phelan] enough for all that you have done for me over the past 9 months. Not just because of the outcome, but for everything else along the way. Your support and passion for my case was just above and beyond what I expected. I could tell how much you cared about me and my situation and I am truly grateful for that.

When I was released from my job, I reached out to Margaret (Peg) Sheahan through a friend’s referral. After 15 years of dedicated service to this company, I was abruptly let go without cause. As a woman over 50, I knew my employment options were limited in an industry ripe with ageism and discrimination. And there were clauses in the agreement that didn’t serve me or allow me to find new employment in a timely manner. Peg carefully reviewed my severance agreement with me, gave me sound advice, guidance, and the legal counsel I so desperately needed. We were able to reach a severance agreement quickly that both the company and I agreed with. She’s like having a super-smart friend, who’s got your back and only has your best interests in mind. Calling Peg was the best thing I did.
