“Twice I have turned to attorney Richard Felton when choosing an advocate, and twice I have been rewarded for making the right choice. Mr. Felton is a true professional, a cogent advisor who has a facile understanding of the law from the worker's point of view and who is then able to interpret even the most complex legal perspectives clearly and patiently for his clients. Confidence engenders trust; based on my experiences, I have complete trust in Gordon, Edelstein, Krepack, Grant, Felton, & Goldstein.”
