The Verde Law Firm was extremely accommodating to my parents and to my father s case. They provided excellent legal counsel to my father, and they fought for the best possible outcome for the case. We faced a very particular and circumstantial employment matter, and without Joshua, I do not believe our case would have ever left the ground. We are super grateful to have lawyers like Joshua who are clearly as passionate and sympathetic as they are driven and professional. Thank you for taking our case, and providing us with closure and a positive outcome. I would not hesitate to recommend The Verde Law Firm to anyone with employment legal matters.

Meeting Mr. Joshua Was such a pleasure he took the time to listen, Prior to this situation we were so unexpected didnt know what to expect. Then came the meeting with Joshua it put us at ease made us feel comfortable he answered all of our questions. At times we didnt understand something, he would take the time to explain. Him and his staff made us feel like family. & Over all we felt A 100% satisfied with the outcome, So with that being said thank you so much to the law firm of Mr.Joshua and his staff. I recommend him to anyone that would need help.

Extremely pleased...highly recommended. I have over 30 years in aerospace/aviation in DoD & commercial sector, and Ive used Josh to review employment contracts & severance agreements. When I transitioned from active duty into the tech start-up world...I had no idea what to look for in offer letter/employment contracts. Josh can explain to you the real compensation vs the distractions that are often in tech start-up offers. Dont try to be a sea lawyer...do your due diligence and let an expert review your employment contracts and severance agreements! Semper Fi!

I echo what the latest reviewer states! I was in a TIME CRUNCH (hours between first call and needing representation asap) and I googled Best HOUSTON DISCRIMINATION ATTORNEY honestly, I contacted 2. This group, by far, surpassed expectations and has been soooooo helpful. I too, felt as though Josh Verde CARES! It is extremely refreshing and comforting to have someone on MY side for a change that recognizes the extreme dysfunction between corporate America and the employees who make them! I will continue to update my review as the process progresses but I just had to share this because first impressions mean a LOT when we are dealing with our mere existence in this world today. Thank you Verde Law Firm. You have given HOPE back to middle America!

I contacted the Verde Law firm as I needed legal assistance with an employment separation agreement. I soon had a zoom meeting with Josh Verde who clearly and concisely explained the agreement and its implications. He patiently answered all my questions, addressed my concerns, explained my options, and set realistic expectations. He immediately started working on my case and provided timely updates throughout. He quickly achieved a very positive outcome. Josh is empathetic and personable, but at the same time works hard for his clients. I trust him completely. I believe it is important to work with an attorney who is board certified in labor and employment law as Josh is. I am very grateful and highly recommend Josh and his team.

I called several Law offices to inquire on my case. Attorney Verde was extremely helpful and accommodating regarding my concerns, and offered great advice from day one. He was prompt with information and I felt confident going into proceedings. I have already contacted attorney Verde about other unrelated matters given the confidence I have in him. Highly recommended.

I required an employment and separation agreement reviewed for accuracy, legal protection, and matching of terms between documents. The Verde Law Firm was able to take my request immediately whereas all Other forms wanted 3 or more days before they could make a decision. The Verde Law Firm reviewed the documents within 24 hours, made a solid comparison between documents, informed me of my obligations, and made numerous recommendations for me to consider. On top of that, we had a zoom call to review and be sure that we were both on the level of understanding. While my matter was specific to an employment matter, I am certain that the firm would provide good advice on just about any contract law matter. A big thanks and shout out to Josh - you are a great lawyer and communicator.

A relative of mine was looking for a lawyer to represent her in a discrimination and retaliation case, which the company terminated her unlawfully. I suggested this firm solely due to the previous reviews and location, but unfortunately we didn t get the same experience as the other 5 star reviews. The lady who booked us was great, however Mr. Verde was less than helpful once he called for the consultation. Not only did he not take our case into consideration, but he also made us feel unsubstantial and less confident. We have substantial evidence of retaliation and unlawful termination, even went to the EEOC and got a Right to Sue. But Verde brushed us off, saying the company can fire at will and that we shouldn t have went to the EEOC because we don t have case , despite the mountain of evidence such as emails and official documents from the company. He pretty much told us we don t have a chance, even though other ex-employees settled with same company and literally had nothing for defense. I m not sure what makes our discrimination case so different than everyone else who left a 5 star review, unless he was being discriminatory of my relative s age (64) and he felt like it would ve been harder to win the case. It was sad how he treated us compared to others in the reviews. Be wary of this firm.

The Verde Law Firm represented me in a difficult and challenging employment matter. Josh and his team were professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. Josh Verde took all of the burden of my situation and guided me through it with continuous updates and minimal hassle for me. Throughout my case, he kept me well informed, provided concise legal explanations, and was empathetic to my situation. He was direct and straightforward, while also maintaining a level of trust and ability to easily communicate with. Josh obtained a positive outcome for me and I am truly appreciative of that. I highly recommend Josh Verde and his team.

I had an AMAZING experience with Josh Verde and the Verde Law Firm. From the start, they provided free, in-depth consultations, ensuring I had all the information I needed to make decisions. Joshs caring and educational approach made me feel empowered throughout the process. I had a difficult and complex situation that caused me a lot of stress, so at times I was impatient and difficult to work with. Josh called each time to talk me off the ledge and help me understand the process. I felt like I was working with a friend rather than an attorney, and his priority was clearly my best interests, not just profit. The outcome exceeded my expectations, and I can see why The Verde Law Firm has fantastic reviews. If you have an employment issue, dont waste time searching; consult with Josh. He is the best there is!

I hired Josh to represent me in an employment matter that would have been a very difficult situation for me if it were not for his professionalism and genuine concern. He has been available every step of the way throughout a very long process, answering questions and keeping me updated.

I want to clarify that I am not a client of this firm. This review is based on my consultation and limited engagement. Some firms like to reply and say they never engaged with a person because they don t recognize the online username, but like most people I do not have my full legal name listed for privacy and safety reasons. This is a real review. The Verde law firm took some time to respond to my inquiry, approximately 2 weeks which I think is too long, however I do understand that their firm may have been very busy with active clients or may have had a backlog of consultations. Based on my interactions with other firms however, it did seem longer than I would anticipate. Josh and his colleague offered a free consultation which occurred on 8/30/23. This was very much appreciated as many firms in Houston charge $200-$500 for a consultation. Based on my experience the average is $250. For a free consultation, Josh did supersede my expectations. He actually was willing to answer questions and clarified why he felt I had a legal claim and where he thought my claim was weak. Now, on the contrary, I am slightly inclined to believe Josh may have not given me the consultation at all if he were not interested in taking the case. Josh did all the talking in the consultation and so I believe that the other lawyer was newer and maybe being mentored. Josh presented himself as knowledgeable, professional, down to earth, and like-able, and I think these are great assets for him as an attorney. My only complaint is that Josh didn t seem to want to address the area of the claim that he felt wasn t very strong, although he agreed it had legal basis and could be argued. To me this demonstrated a lack of confidence in his negotiation and/or litigation skills. That may not be the case, but it raised concern. Further, Josh raised concerns that I hadn t even thought of. While I think this is his job as a legal counsel, he didn t raise them in a way that made me feel confident in his ability to address them. He also seemed to prefer to separate these concerns from my claim, meaning I would have needed additional representation or pay additional fees. Josh was ready to send a representation letter but he created concerns because he wasn t willing to manage the claim(s) in their entirety. I asked for Josh to let me sit on it which he granted. I appreciated that he wasn t trying to sell me under pressure. His lack in confidence in part of my claims created doubt for me. These parts of the claim were equally important to me. I then sent Josh and team an email stating my concerns. I think Josh fed off the fear he created in me based on his response. Josh later rescinded his offer for representation and I felt it was because he didn t feel I was willing to pay the additional fees and he lacked confidence in pursuing the case in its entirety; he really preferred to go after one part of the claim. Obviously not knowing what the additional fees might be, I did tell him if the concern he raised became an issue, I would address that part of my claim on my own. I couldn t commit at that time to paying for representation for a hypothetical situation that might not have come up. Overall, I do recommend Josh, depending on the case and complexities. I wasn t mad at his decision. It s important to have an attorney that feels confident in fighting a big company, and in my case Josh wasn t confident in the entire case; only part of it so he would not have represented me well. He recommended someone else but I was okay as I had other firms interested. Update: I wanted to thank the firm for replying. I did not take the decision personal. Josh and team were professional and I didnt think less. It is great that the firm also can handle large companies as noted in their list. My intent was to say that my case had an aspect that they didnt feel confident in based on their experience and it wasnt a fit, for both, because that areas was important to me. It was not my intent to suggest they are not capable.

When I had trouble with wrongful termination from my federal employment I had to seek outside counsel after the union let me down. I asked Verde law firm to represent me. After a long fight with the government trying to negotiate and eventually a bench trial the judge sided on our-side and reinstated me back to work. This would not have happened with out the intensive knowledge that Mr. Verde brought to the table on federal laws and regulations. I would highly recommend using Verde Law Firm to represent you in employment problems.

This was my first experience with getting an attorney for a car accident. The insurance company for the other driver was being very difficult and I realized I was going to need help from an attorney. Josh Verde and his whole team at the Verde Law Firm were absolutely outstanding I could not be more happy with my whole experience. I never doubted his dedication to my case. He always kept me up to date on the case, with any challenges that arose he had a plan and he handled it perfectly. He managed all the bills from my medical treatment and kept bill collectors off of my back until I received my settlement. He gave me peace of mind while I recovered and got the treatment I needed without worrying about financial burden. I was very pleased with the outcome and would recommend the Verde Law Firm to anyone.

I can t thank Josh enough for all of his hard work and time throughout my case. He replied quickly to emails and phone calls, and never stopped working to ensure that I would have the best possible outcome. He protected my name, digged for every bit of information he could find, and was confident through times when it seemed like the odds were against us. He is willing to listen and guide you in the right direction and keeps you informed every step of the way. I am more than pleased with the settlement and will never forget what he has done for me and my family. I will always be grateful for all of his efforts on my behalf. He is a knowledgeable great lawyer, and overall, just a good guy who genuinely cares about his clients. I cannot recommend this firm enough. Thank you Josh!!

I saw all the good reviews and hoped I would have a good experience like the rest. Alas, this was not the case I wasnt even allowed to speak the full details of my case nor provide any evidence. It was done over the phone in like 5 minutes. ( the same day I call to schedule a consultation mind you) Although, it is possible he can be right about my case not being valid in the eyes of the law. I am not sure if it is discrimination, retaliation or whistle blower. I do not believe what my employer did or does is ethical or legal in any way and I wish I was given the time to explain everything. Instead of being put on the spot so quickly and brash. I desired more assistance, legal advice or any remedies to my situation. Not to mention, he said he would talk to the other lawyers about my case and I kid you not, not even 5 minutes go by and I get a rejection letter. I would appreciate honesty especially from someone who could have represented me. I prefer honesty than a white lie for the sake of appearing polite. How someone handles things say a lot about an individual. Regardless, If I do get this to court I would like a patient, empathetic, helpful lawyer. Unfortunately, first impressions matter. I will not be looking for legal help with this firm now or in the future. I doubt I will recommend them either.

I am indescribably grateful to Mr. Verde for the outcomes he achieved in my case. I dont know that anyone can imagine the level of stress that arises from a former, well-funded employer bringing a lawsuit against you unless youve experienced it personally. Mr. Verde proved to be the attorney that no one can reasonably expect to find. Hes exceptionally knowledgeable, dedicated, and empathetic. I left my consultation with the feeling that I found a rock star to be on my side, and it turned out that was exactly the case. Mr. Verde guided me through hours of grueling deposition from the opposing sides attorney (who, compared to Mr. Verde, was twice as expensive and half as skilled) when I had no prior experience with legal matters whatsoever. The lawsuit was totally dropped by the plaintiff within an hour following the deposition. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Verde to those seeking representation.

I wouldn t recommend this attorney. I received his contact information from a referral source agency. I contacted him and was unable to even speak with him. I was willing to pay for my consultation, but for whatever reason Mr. Verde thought I wasn t worth listening too. It s quite hard to know that there s no good attorney out here in this world. So much of going on and no one cares to listen unless it pop up on the news. The little people who try to seek help due to injustice are easily just left behind.
