“Tiffany Ma is a powerhouse: not only does she possess encyclopedic knowledge of all aspects of employment law, she is a fierce and tireless advocate for her clients. Tiffany’s firm handled a recent employment discrimination case and settlement for me through arbitration and everything went exactly as she predicted: time frame, expected settlement amount, anticipated objections and maneuvers by opposing counsel and company. Her strategic acumen in how to address all aspects of my case were spot on and coupled with ability to execute on all aspects (filings, calls, negotiations). Her work ethic is unparalleled and I never wondered where I stood with the case due to her excellent communications skills with me, opposing counsel and mediators. In fact, Tiffany ran rings around opposing counsel in terms of timeliness, preparation, accuracy, and communications … I had a tireless and brilliant advocate to get me through a very difficult employment and health situation and I can honestly say I would not be where I am today without her representation.”

“My colleague Tiffany Ma, Esq. is an outstanding labor law attorney. Every client I referred to her, she did very serious and valuable work for.

“Tiffany Ma was referred to me by a lawyer friend, who knows her and her work very well. He thought that my case was weak but felt that if anyone could get a positive result, it would be Tiffany Ma and was he ever right. From the moment, I talked to her, I was impressed by her level of knowledge and her ability to assess the situation in a positive and understandable way. I had been terminated from a job and there was defintiely age discrimination and discrimination based on my ethnicity. Additionally, Tiffany was very direct and asked the appropriate questions and made me feel comfortable and pleased that I may finally have someone who would give me a voice. Working in the industry in which I worked, discrimination is pervasive especially if one is a woman and over 50. With a little digging and some additional information, Tiffany was also, able to discern that not only had I been treated in an inappropriate and illegal way but I had commissions and wages owed to me. Tiffany has an incredible work ethic and amazing negotiating skills. When even the mediator said that my former boss was difficult, Tiffany stood her ground and didn’t give an inch. She not only won the case for me, she made me feel validated. The monetary settlement far exceeded my expectations. She’s a winner all the way! I would recommend her in a New York minute. There are not enough accolades to bestow on her that would be enough.”

She took over an hour with me on our initial call to learn about my situation and circumstance and then took the time to learn all the details of my case with such care and efficiency. From there, she was always very honest and so professional when dealing with my case and former employer. Not to mention, she is a powerhouse! She is well known in the industry, knows the players and the game. She honestly and earnestly cares for her clients and it shows in her outcomes for them. I could not thank Tiffany enough for all the dedication and hard work she poured into my case! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND her!!!”

“Thank you. I do appreciate everything you have done & are doing. I am extremely confident in your work. You saw the bigger things where I was focusing on the little things. It’s just very clear they don’t want me there. Before you, I would cry, get sick to my stomach, be scared to look at my emails, hyperventilate when my supervisor is telling me I am wrong entering in my time. Since you, I am more confident that it’s not me, it’s them. I always worked my ass off for that company. It is degrading the things I have to do meanwhile everyone else on the project don’t have to do what they are making me do. And to boot I am doing more work then a paralegal in any staff counsel office and I am at the same grade as a brand new paralegal. And everyone else on the project got to keep their grade. I am still nervous going to work but since I have you as my attorney I am not getting sick anymore and smile more. So I think everything is going to work out really great. I am confident in your work. So thank you.”

“Tiffany is an exceptional attorney who is extremely professional and has an eye for details. I retained her recently in a matter involving severance and was very pleased with the outcome. To put it simply, anyone in need of legal assistance involving employment law could not be in better hands.”

“Tiffany Ma is an excellent attorney, and I highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking out legal representation for a labor or employment issue. Not only is Tiffany sharp, extremely knowledgeable and compassionate, she is also deeply committed to resolving her clients’ cases in the most just and honorable way possible. She passionately and assertively stands up for the rights of her clients—and I felt incredibly secure knowing that I was in her competent hands. Tiffany took my case very seriously and did her best to expedite the resolution, with the best possible outcome. She also provided updates on a regular basis so that I was up to speed on all facets of the case. Overall, she was a pleasure to work with and I am still thankful for the expert help that she provided in my time of need.”
