    I am writing to express my deep disappointment and frustration with the recent developments in my case against my former employer.

    When I initially engaged your firm, I believed in the expertise and reputation that preceded you. Unfortunately, the lack of action and what seemed like a passive strategy in addressing the substantial grievances I raised against my former employer left me disheartened. Given the gravity of the issues at hand, I had anticipated a more assertive stance to be taken on my behalf.

    Furthermore, the recent discussions surrounding a mere $5,000 settlement offer were distressing. This offer doesn't accurately reflect the extent of the harm I've endured due to alleged discrimination and retaliation. I firmly believe that my rights and interests should have been pursued more vigorously.

    However, what particularly concerns me is the situation related to my former employer and their potential bankruptcy. Given the ongoing rumors, I feel it was crucial that we pursue a Summary Judgment on my behalf before any bankruptcy filing. This would have secured my claim in the bankruptcy proceedings, allowing for a more favorable resolution of my case. Instead, your firm decided to withdraw after I elected not to accept the $5,000. To be blunt, I feel as though your firm wanted to make a quick buck out of my case instead of putting in the work for my best interest.

    I understand that legal strategies can be intricate, and I respect the complexities your team faces. However, the lack of effective communication, proactive efforts, and consideration of potential outcomes in my case have left me deeply dissatisfied with the representation I received.

    It's especially troubling that I now have just 60 days to find new counsel due to your firm's withdrawal from my case. This compressed timeline exacerbates the challenges of an already difficult situation.
