I can't say enough positive things about Mike and his staff!

Extremely professional and quick to respond.  My case went better than expected all because Mike knew exactly what to do!  I didn't go to court or even mediation and got the results I was hoping for and more.  Thanks so much for being there when I needed you!

- Kris Miller

The group at Cunningham Law did an outstanding job for me!

The communication was excellent, and the milestones were accomplished in a timely manner. I participated throughout the process, was kept informed regarding the progress, and a good result was obtained.

- Edward Johnson

I can't say thank you enough!

When I called I was feeling pretty confused and defeated and wasn't sure how to approach the labor board with my specific situation. Not only did Mitch make me feel a lot better after talking to him, he actually delivered! He gave me all the info and direction I needed to get the ball rolling!

Cunningham Law, APC is a premier law firm that focuses in representing employees in severance agreement negotiations. Unlike most firms that handle only a few cases per year, our practice is primarily focused on this area. With our extensive experience, we can quickly assess your specific circumstances and ensure you’re not leaving money on the table by accepting your employer’s initial severance agreement offer.

Additionally, we’re able to negotiate to improve other crucial terms, such as stock option vesting, post-termination medical benefits, and positive employment references. With attorney Michael S. Cunningham’s 13-year track record in employment law practice, he has successfully negotiated millions in severance and settlement agreements.
