Kathy McGlade:

"Facing unemployment was devastating.  Finding Jack Tuckner was revitalizing.  Jack is an excellent

attorney, smart and determined.  He listened, worked hard, and kept me focused.  In addition to winning

a generous settlement, Jack helped me stand by my principles and win back my confidence.  Along with

great legal advice, in Jack Tuckner, I found a treasured human being."

Harriet Cohen:

"Jack Tuckner made me like lawyers again."

Lisa Brockington:

"I knew as soon as I met Jack that I'd found the right attorney. 

His kindness and compassion helped me to remain strong and

confident during a very difficult time.  From the beginning of

my case through mediation, he always made himself available

to me.  Jack is an excellent lawyer and a very special human

being."

Marina Piller

"Through countless conversations that kept my spirit intact while I was ambushed by my employer,

Jack provided me with a world-shifting view in how I can go about redefining my life and changing

my perspective. He has given me not only practical sound legal advice and support whenever I

needed, but also deeply insightful wisdom about the transitions one usually undergoes, one step at a

time, from being engrossed in a single corporate identity to a rich array of possible selves. He

empowered me when I was marginalized at work, supported me irrelevant of the path I needed to

take for our case, while internalizing my goals as if they were his own and delivering outstanding

results. Jack is truly extraordinary."

Rene Cooper:

If ever you experience harassment or discrimination on the job, put it in writing, report it

immediately, and contact William Sipser.

Donna D:

"In this male dominated world, having an attorney like Jack Tuckner fighting for you is a blessing to any female

who has been wronged."

Karen Edward:

"Thanks to Jack Tuckner my case ended on a very positive note.  It wasn't about the money and

harboring negative feelings, but about magnanimity and closure.  Jack was always there for me,

honest, pragmatic and professional.  I sense that connecting to his clients in that human way is

extremely important to Jack–he truly cares."

Shandauh Burgess:

"I felt like Rosa Parks, because I made a change in the company that will benefit other women.  If Rosa

Parks didn't step up, Black people would still be at the back of the bus.  If I hadn't stood up for my rights at

work, other women might still be getting hurt.  Now for the first time, my employer must have a sexual

harassment policy.

Jack was great! He was like a Genie; he made my wish come true.  He granted me a wish that I thought

would never happen.  In the mediation process at the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, I

was a little nervous at first but Jack made me feel comfortable and he gently pushed me to make sure that I

had a full chance to tell my side of the story.  The whole process made me stronger:  I never had one

problem with his office.  They always gave me prompt updates."

Josephine Gregory

I'm very grateful for Mr. Sipser's help! When I first met with him, I left

feeling relieved because he asked all the right questions. I had been

contacting other attorneys, but Mr. Sipser did not hesitate to work with me

on a contingency basis. Other attorneys wanted fees that I couldn't afford

because I had just lost my job, which is why I needed an attorney! Other

attorneys don't explain much, but Mr. Sipser answered all my questions

and told me what to do next. I was very happy with him as my lawyer.

Susan Terwilliger:

I want to thank you, Jack (and all your staff) for the many months you have worked on my case and the

successful outcome.

There were many times during the negotiations when I know was difficult as a client - upset, angry and

obsessive to the extreme.  You were compassionate about my emotional state, but more importantly, you

helped me get past my emotions and NOT take things so personally.  This state of mind helped me dissipate

the emotional fog, make decisions and understand and actually get what I really wanted - what was really

important. A side benefit - it also helped me sleep better!

I want to express a special thank you regarding how hard you continued to work on the other terms after the

money was already decided.  As you know these details dragged on for 4 months and I really appreciate your

willingness to continue to go to bat for me on these issues, even when there was (quite frankly) no additional money in it for you.  I

always felt that you were deeply committed to getting it right. I just really have to say thank you again for representing my interests

with such integrity.

Andrea Lawrence:

"What impressed me about Jack Tuckner was that when I first met with him, he really

listened and was very understanding.  He didn't use lawyer jargon and he explained the

process step by step.  He understood that for me it was not about the money so much as it

was about the principle.  That's how he operates...it was obvious from meeting with him that

his consultation fee was not his main motivation, unlike other lawyers.  When we had our

ADR process, he explained everything to me but he didn't dumb it down.  He went in with

guns blazing when they didn't want to give us what we deserved.  His opening statement blew

the other lawyer away."

Lore Stamboulian:

"Jack made it comfortable for me to cope with an extremely emotional ordeal.  Jack is very knowledgeable

and supportive and he and his staff were always responsive to my countless calls.  He truly identifies and

values the essence of the working mother!"

Dorothea "Dottie" Geraci:

"I want to thank Jack for sticking by me through everything, especially when I was ready

to give up.  You've been an excellent attorney, and more importantly, a good friend. 

Thanks for everything.  If and when I'm ever in trouble again we'll team up.  Thanks so

much."

Nicole McMiller:

"Jack is a good man.  When you have problems, you can talk to him.  When I first came here, I was kind of

nervous until I met him.  He made me have confidence in myself.  He kept me up strong–as a woman.  He

thinks like us!  He's a wonderful man and he will always be in my thoughts."

Arely Mendoza:

"Jack Tuckner is an excellent lawyer and a wonderful human being who is supportive,

understanding and caring.  He is there for you all along the way to help you to maintain your

dignity and emotional well being as he fights for your rights in a classy and professional

manner.  I thank Jack for his excellent work.  The mediation was excellent and he helped me

to bring closure to my case on a positive note, both monetarily and emotionally."

Sandra Bongiorno:

"There is no doubt in my mind that if there is anyone who can get the job done, Jack is the man.  He

emphatically targeted the problem, took immediate action and helped me receive results.  He

understood my stressful situation and guided me through every step of the way.  I know that I

wouldn't have received this wonderful treatment anywhere else."

Kimberly Hynes:

"I never had to wait long for Jack Tuckner to get back to me.  No matter how small

the question, he always answered it in detail.  It was a scary thing to begin with,

hiring an attorney to represent me against my employer.  As soon as I sat down with

Jack, he immediately eased my fears.  I didn't feel alone anymore."

Ed Bracher

"I would like to say that having Mr. William Sipser of Tuckner, Sipser, Weinstock & Sipser, LLP represent me

in my age discrimination suit was the best thing I could have done.  He was not only very professional, but

made sure that I was calm and focused throughout my case.  I would recommend him to any of my friends and

family that would need his services."

Pearl Korenblit

I would like to thank you for being so incredibly helpful and supportive throughout the

negotiation process with my employer.   As I told you on our first meeting, I was very

impressed by your knowledge of the legal issues involved in my case and your sensitivity to

how tough the situation has been for me at work. Your constant advice on how to minimize

the legal costs was amazing.   I found each of our conversations, prior to writing letters or

going to meetings with my employer, to be most informative, supportive, and right on the

mark in your predictions of what would come up and how to handle it.  I could not have

done it without you and surely would not have succeeded without your expert advice.

I am amazed at how fantastic a lawyer you are in your field of "women's rights in the workplace" and at the same time what a great

mench (good person in Yiddish) you are. Wow!!!!  I am happy to know that a lawyer can be so nice and supportive!!!!

Thanks so much!!! You helped make such a difficult time in my life so much more tolerable. I was able to feel validated by my

employer by following your valuable advice.  With great appreciation.

Laura Pereira:

"Jack Tuckner was very attentive and understanding.  He cared about what I was going through–my whole

ordeal.  He always responded quickly to my questions when I needed answers.  His relationship with the

mediator and the other lawyers representing the employer made me feel that I was in the best hands when it

involved fighting for my rights.  You can see that he loves what he's doing.  He's someone you can open up

your heart to.  The staff made me feel so welcome.  They are so cordial and professional.  From the first day I

walked in I said, wow, I like this place."

Karen McIntyre:

"Jack Tuckner took my case right at the beginning and designed an empowering strategy

through each step along the way, from my first consultation to the final resolution in

federal court.  My monetary award was even more than I ever would've expected.  He's

informative, intelligent and ethical–the perfect qualities to have in a lawyer fighting on

your side."

Nikki Kilgour:

"Jack was always there to help me.  I never though a lawyer would actually answer calls, and return calls, read

email and actually respond to them, but he always did.  I would tell friends how impressed I was because of

the respect he had for my case.  I felt comfortable with him–that he was truly on my side.  I think he did a great

job and more importantly, I felt he was honest with me from the beginning."

Amy Cohen:

"I loved working with Jack.  He was so compassionate.  I felt that he really cared about me."

Dorina Maxwell:

"Jack was reliable and caring. I used to call him 2 or 3 times a day.  He helped me so much–not only legally, but

psychologically as well."

Kim Chin:

"Jack left no stone unturned.  He went all out.  It's not like he was only fighting for me.  It was

personal to him."

Alexandra Cole:

"Thank God we found Jack.  I never felt that I was on the same level as my boss until I had Jack as my

attorney."

Valerie Washington:

"Jack thinks like a woman.  He made me comfortable enough to tell him anything."

Denise Owens:

"Other lawyers wouldn't take my case because I was in a union.  Jack got me my back pay when my union

wouldn't even try."

Juana Douglas:

"We feel so much better having Jack Tuckner on our side.  God bless Jack and his

staff."

Marsha Hafez:

"Jack was like the biblical David going against Goliath with his slingshot.  And it worked."

Joyelle Bukowski:

"Jack always stayed on top of things, from the beginning to the end of my case.  He is in a

class by himself as a lawyer.

Kathleen Britton:

"Jack Tuckner put in the time and energy, using his skills and expertise to negotiate the best settlement

possible under unusual and complicated circumstances.  He did not pressure me to accept a poor settlement."

Stacie Nielsen:

"Jack Tuckner is the best lawyer I ever worked with.  Informative and down to earth.  Gave

me a consultation and did not limit the time–answered all my questions and gave me honest

answers.  Walked me through a very tough situation and supported me every step of the way. 

Gave me the legal empowerment to resolve the situation in the quickest and least hostile

manner possible."

Meredith Start:

"My ordeal was/is one of the worst experiences I've ever had to endure.  I would never wish upon anyone

what I was subject to.  Jack provided me with both the emotional support and confidence to not run away with

my tail between my legs.  Thanks Jack!"

Susan Gala:

"Words can't describe Jack, he's an incredible human being.  It's not so much the

process, it's the belief, the essence of Jack's presence that makes you feel complete,

that there is nothing wrong with you.  I can just be myself, just like he was himself. 

There wasn't a label on him when I sat down to talk to him; it doesn't say "attorney"

across his face or across his office.  The mediation process was incredible, so

comfortable.  Jack in action is the same as he is in his office, that doesn't change, he is

who he is."

Michelle Granucci

"Jack was wonderful, I felt so satisfied.  My boss got what he deserved.  Jack had him by the throat.  The staff

was so helpful, Maggie was awesome!"

Tanya Rouse

"I was being humiliated at work, and I got Jack Tuckner to save the day!  I was facing

discrimination and retaliation in the workplace.  I looked to Jack Tuckner for advice and

support, and he provided me with both.  He worked in a timely manner, which was

important because I was expecting my second child at the time.  He empowered me to help

myself with my situation.  He really encouraged me to stand up for my rights, and to be in

control of the situation where otherwise I might have been marginalized."

Iryna Fito

I've never heard about lawyers who give free consultations by phone when you're not even their client. That's

impressive.  It was a very big pleasure to work with Jack Tuckner.  I think he chose the right profession in his

life.  My first impression was that his occupation isn't just work for him but more like a style of life.  That's why

his cases are successful.  He helps us, women, to make some changes in the world.  So, if you want to win -

work with JACK TUCKNER.

Danielle  R. Combs

Jack Tuckner is a true asset to the Profession of Law.   He naturally combines intelligence and ability with

empathy ... is hard-working, patient, determined, and understanding.  He is accessible, sincere, caring, and

open to individual needs.  Jack undoubtedly prides himself on gold standard personal and professional

principles.  I thank him wholeheartedly for all of his help, generosity, and compassion.  Moreover, for being a

Gentleman of Such High Integrity.

Kate Darcy

For women's rights, attorney Jack Tuckner and staff rock!

Erika Klavins

When I first went to Jack Tuckner it was with

my head down and wondering how I would get out of a situation that that was degrading and discriminating. I

felt I had lost control of a bad situation that was quickly getting worse. Jack Tuckner and Williams Sipser are a

wonderful team. They are fighting social injustice and discrimination against women in the workplace and they

are fighting hard. Jack was available 24/7. His strong will and belief in the right for women to be protected

from discrimination and retaliation was cherished when I felt I was completely vilified and ousted at my job.  I

knew that I was protected. Not just because I had a lawyer but because I had the right lawyers. They were the

saving grace for me when I needed legal and moral support. Their entire team went above and beyond so I

always knew I had a life line and wasn't alone. It is a compassion I never expected to find from a legal team, but

that compassion carried me through the process and in the end I walked away from the situation with my head

held high. I am so thankful for this group of extraordinary people.
