Alden Law Group PLLC

I cannot recommend Alden Law Group (ALG) more highly. After encountering a challenging and frustrating HR issue between two Federal agencies, I contacted ALG and they reviewed all relevant materials, counseled me on different Federal regulations, and evaluated paths forward. Ultimately, I got the outcome I wanted and it was all because ALG was there to support me in better understanding the nuances of Federal regulation and agency-specifc HR policy. Thank you, ALG!

I was initially excited to have such a seasoned attorney in Jim Eisenmann. He seemed to think I was a good writer and could handle a lot of the preliminary tasks with my Agency on my own and save myself some money. A few months in I realized he just didn't have the time or the interest to handle my case. Even after retaining him, there was a point where I didn't hear from him for over two weeks, and he was unresponsive to my emails. I had to call the firm to get him to respond to me about an upcoming deadline. When he submitted our counteroffer to the Agency, he wrote the incorrect position even after I pointed out this error in his draft. He didn't take the time to read the ROI which provided insight into the strength of my case. His number one goal was to get me to settle (which I had no issue with). He just wanted me to settle for little to nothing without reading any of my case documents. I reached out to Kristin Alden because I wanted to stick with the law firm, but just get an attorney who was actually available to take my case. She never responded. I terminated the relationship. Jim nor the other counsel copied responded to my email, and I again had to call the firm for a response. After calling the firm, I was able to be refunded the remainder of my trust within a reasonable amount of time, but my file still hasn't been turned over though it's been several weeks since the relationship was terminated. Counsel from the law firm reported she is waiting for Jim to authorize the release of my files. I have no idea why authorization would take weeks; I assume he's being petty. I have half a mind to report Jim and Alden Law Group to The Bar.
