I partnered with Elizabeth Malay in 2023, she represented me as the plaintiff and did an amazing job! Right from the start, she and her team were so supportive and on point with every aspect of my case until the end. The outcome was better than I could have ever hoped for. It is obvious that Elizabeth and her firm are truly passionate for what they do & the purpose they serve to ensure a fair and just outcome. Liz went above & beyond for me. I will be forever grateful to her and the team as their efforts resulted in an outcome that changed my life forever. read more

My husband and I worked with Drew at Collier Law firm for thirteen months. Drew is kind, dedicated, a great listener, and made the daunting law process manageable. He answered every question we had, and often, we didn't have many questions after his thorough and easy to understand explanations. We felt supported and informed throughout the long and complicated process. Drew and his team are hardworking, motivated, and overall, just good people. We probably would have given up during the process if it weren't for Drew and his excellent team. We interviewed six other law firms before choosing Drew at Collier Law Firm, and we are so grateful for all their help and expertise. I highly recommend working with Collier Law firm! read more

Words cannot express the thanks and gratitude I have for the law firm of Collier Socks LLP. After being turned down by 5 other firms, and my hopes diminished, Dustin Collier, Joshua Socks, Elizabeth Malay, and Drew Teti listened attentively and with compassion. The legal process is convoluted and daunting, and this team eased those concerns by guiding me each step of the way by explaining in detail every aspect of the case, and my options. They did the heavy lifting in a controversial whistleblower retaliation and discrimination case and represented me with the utmost respect and candor. These lawyers were very professional, aggressive, and negotiated a rather handsome settlement. They are top notch lawyers and the very best in their field. I cannot recommend them enough. You want the law firm of Collier Socks to be on your side. read more

" highly recommended and I am very lucky that I met Dustin Collier. I called on a different matter and for my surprise I found out through his general consultations that my rights had been violated in a totally different area of law. I decided to hire him for the other matter and I am more than happy with his handling of the case. I highly recommend Dustin Collier and his team. He is very professional and talented, respectful, patient, and trustworthy. Definitely more than 5 stars. Thank you Dustin very much." read more

Highly recommend Dustin. Easy to work with, doesn't overcharge, gets things done fast. Thanks so much!

I am forever grateful to Collier Law Firm for accepting my case. During my initial consultation, Dustin listened attentively, expressed empathy and answered all of my questions. He was very straightforward in explaining the legal process, which I really appreciate. During the process of my case, I quickly realized that I was not just being represented by anyone. Dustin and Josh are extremely knowledgeable, experienced and passionate. To witness them in action was amazing. It gave me a sense of pride and confidence knowing that they were on my team. Ultimately, they exceeded my expectation. read more

I cannot recommend Dustin Collier highly enough. I met him when I had just been through a humiliating experience where an irrelevant but permanent feature of my body cost me my job. I had been offered a low 4 figure severance, and one of the first things he said to me was that "even $10,000 would be an insult. " I was cynical about it, I admit. It sounded like salesmanship. Little did I know that 3 years later I would receive a check in the mail that would make me whole. For every dollar Dustin had me invest in the case, I got back $10. But it wasn't the money that made me write this review. Dustin gave me my pride back. In the depositions with my former employers, he made them look like the ignorant fools they were. He talked them into logical boxes again and again, and all the while I got to sit back and eat packets of gummy bears provided by the deposition office (which they eventually paid for) and laugh at the stupidity of their answers. Right before the case resolved, when I was questioning whether I was the fool, when i didn't know if it would ever resolve, Dustin gave me an impassioned speech about how I was doing the right thing by standing up to them, and that he was going to be my advocate "win, lose or draw" because it really, truly angered him how they had treated me like trash when I would have been "such an asset. " It resolved 2 weeks later. I'm proud to say I'm no longer a cynic. There really are good people in the world, and among them are the people at the Law Offices of Dustin Collier. read more

I cannot recommend him highly enough. read more

I was referred to Dustin Collier through another attorney back in 2012. I was on disability and getting harassed by my employer, a national corporate company. On very strong medication for my condition, I was completely dependent on Dustin. His depth of empathy for my situation and my case kept me steady. And, he resolved my issues with my employer with a more than favorable outcome, much to the surprise of my employer. He knows the law forwards and backwards and is the consummate professional. And, even though my job position required interaction with attorneys, I learned more about how the law really works through Dustin's expert handling of my case. I recently contacted him the other day regarding another employment issue regarding a different employer. He gave me his undivided attention, once again, expertly explaining the law and how it works, then explained my options. I was so relieved after the call having a better understanding of what I needed to know. Dustin Collier is a fantastic attorney and a straight shooter. He will always be who I contact for help if and when I need more serious intervention. Thanks so much Dustin!! read more

In 2012, I was desperately looking for an attorney to help me with a discrimination/whistle blower case against a Federal Agency which involved the EEOC. Most of the lawyers I contacted did not even want to take on my case. Dustin was the exception and am I glad he agreed to take on my case. This was a long and difficult case, dealing with the Federal Agency delaying tactics during that time period. Not only did we reach an agreeable settlement to me, but more importantly I was able to continue working and receiving my benefits at the agency during, and after the settlement. Something that would not have occurred if it wasn't for the excellent representation by Dustin, intervening on my behalf. read more

Having Mr. Collier handle my case was the best decision I could have made. As an employment lawyer, Mr. Collier is impressively, intelligent, thorough, and organized. However, a quality that really stands out with Mr. Collier is one that most would never associate with a lawyer - his honesty and passion for his client's claims. Prior to meeting Mr. Collier, I felt other lawyers were merely interested in making the most off of my case (or me for that matter). With no regard for what had happened to me at work, they would measure up my case and my wallet like a carcass of meat to carve away. In contrast, from the time of our first free consultation, Mr. Collier really listened, taking the time to go over all of the details of my case, going well over his stated free 30 minute consultation. Overall he made the distinct impression that he was putting my best interest first. The passion Mr. Collier has for defending workers is evident and made the difficult decision of choosing legal council a no-brainer. It turned out to be the best decision I could have made as Mr. Collier immediately took ownership of my case. He made it so that I was able to go back to living a normal life while he assumed the previously defeating and overwhelming burden of fighting my employment related case. Not only did I get my time back but I was finally able to clear all "my evidence", or documents I had been saving and which had begun to take up a significant portion of space on my living room floor. Without any prompting, Mr. Collier would check-in with me regularly with any updates or pertinent information and to answer any questions and this was extremely reassuring, as I knew my case was in good hands with him. Lastly, Mr. Collier compelled a Goliath of a company to settle in an extremely short period of time. Overall, Mr. Collier is in my opinion a modern day David. read more

After being severely mistreated by an employer, I had a meeting with Dustin Collier. During his consultation, he was extremely thorough in his evaluation of my case. He spent much more time with me than the allotted free consultation time, making sure I knew every direction the case could go and what I would need to be prepared for. He is extremely knowledgeable in his specialty of law, however what stands out about him even more than his intelligence is his empathy. He really cares about his clients and is angered about the injustice that has been served upon them by people and companies who think they are above the law and can get away with anything. I warned him right away that I thought this case wouldn't be settled and would most likely go all the way to trial because the defendants were complete narcissists. He wasn't shaken by this at all and worked diligently on my case for a year and a half. Even when the defendants switched lawyers for the third time, now hiring someone with political pull in the court system, he reminded me that we were the more likable team and even though political pull might get a judge to rule motions in their favor, a jury decides on the verdict. I am extremely grateful to him. I cannot recommend Dustin enough. He is an amazing attorney, with an honest and good soul who takes ethics seriously. read more

Dustin Collier represented me in litigation. Although he joined my legal team less than 2 months before the trial was scheduled to begin he performed superbly at trial during opening statements, questioning witnesses, and closing arguments. The jury awarded me 250,000 dollars, in no small part due to Dustin's great ability to educate the jury appropriately. The magnitude of the award was a particularly impressive accomplishment given that we did not ask the jury for damages associated with lost income, rather we asked for emotional damages. I give him my highest recommendation. read more

i was advised, for free, to try this legal issue on my own, as it was a a matter the state could handle without my having to hire a lawyer. mr. collier saved me money for no charge. i rate him highly for ethics. he was willing to take my case but showed me that i don't always need a lawyer and can handle some things myself( i have never hired one yet). i recommend his services. he will be realistic about how much time things take in the courts these days, what with all the state cutbacks . read more
