In Their Own Words
Written by: Legal Action of Wisconsin
We are honored and humbled to work with clients across the state of Wisconsin to protect their rights and help them find their way forward when faced with a legal problem. Here’s what some of our clients and former clients had to say about us:
“Words cannot thank you enough for all that you and Legal Action have done for me! I have found and secured housing using a co-signer and will be moving at the beginning of October. I admire your courage, hard work, and knowledge. Many thanks.” – Former client
“I was recruited for a seasonal food processing job in Wisconsin. I lost my job after I complained about bullying and my employer did not pay me the end of season bonus I earned. I filed a complaint with the Migrant Labor Inspector and Legal Action’s Farmworker Project represented me in the investigation. With their help, my employer agreed to pay my end of season bonus. The payment I received helped me to pay past due bills.” – Former client
“I applied for Wisconsin unemployment benefits. I received a letter wrongly stating that I did not qualify for benefits. I contacted Legal Action. They successfully represented me in my appeal and, at hearing, I testified regarding the harassment I suffered at the workplace and my employer’s lack of action to address this issue. […] Over $5,000 was deposited in my account because of this successful appeal. This money represents a significant portion of my yearly income. I’m happy to be back at work again –but am glad Legal Action helped me to stand up for my rights –both in the workplace and with the government agency –when I needed help the most.” – Former client
