Real people, real results

My husband has watched Lior Samfiru on TV for years. So when I was terminated "without cause" and offered a miniscule severance, I knew exactly who to call. He gave me the courage to stand up for myself and achieve a truly great outcome.

I highly recommend Lior Samfiru and his team, who helped me deal with job redundancy from my workplace of over two decades. It was my first time hiring an employment lawyer and I’m very thankful for my daughter's recommendation.
