"I thought my case against my former government employer was hopeless and that I would have a real difficult time getting a lawyer to believe in me. When I called Morris Fischer's office, he first advised me that he had to review all of my documents to assess my case's legal merits. After that happened, Mr. Fischer told me that he believed in my case and that we had reason to be hopeful.

Upon meeting Morris Fischer and speaking with him for about twenty minutes, my instincts were that this was someone who understood me, my situation, as well as the legal process and how to reach a successful conclusion. As the case progressed, it simply dawned on me the more that I spoke with him, that this was someone who is probably one of the sharpest and most skilled employment law attorneys in all of Maryland.

Morris handled my case brilliantly. He developed the strongest legal defenses for my side of the case. He spent a lot of time working with me to prepare for trial. At the end of the day, my employer settled with me on the day of trial. I was quite pleased with the confidential settlement that we reached. The results I obtained from Morris E. Fischer were more than I expected and well worth the financial investment I made in the case.

I would highly recommend Morris E. Fischer as your employment lawyer. Thank you so much for the effort you made on my case. It was a great pleasure working with you."

In December, 2006 I received a letter and an appeal form from the Office of Personnel Management in reference to my retirement annuity being recalculated due to my failure to elect to pay credits for my military service.

I later found out that my annuity was being recomputed because I did in fact elect not to make the deposits because my personnel office misinformed me and gave me erroneous information that influenced my decision. I was never informed about one single negative consequence if I did not elect to make the deposits for my post 1956 military service.

I decided to hire an attorney to look into this matter for me, but after I showed him the letter I received, he informed me that I did not have a case. This was devastating because I stood to lose thousands of dollars on my yearly retirement.

I did further research and found Mr. Morris Fischer's law office and decided to give him a call since I was impressed with his credentials and experience. I explained my predicament to him and he asked me to fax a copy of everything I had received so he could review the documents.

To my amazement, I received a call in a day or so and it was enlightening to hear these words from Mr. Fischer, "Ed, you do have a case." I was still somewhat skeptical after previously being informed by another attorney that I didnt have a case.

I decided to retain Mr. Fischer to handle this case for me because there was too much at stake not to take into service a professional law advisor. Mr. Fischer handled my case professionally and accurately with the Merit System Protection Board and within a month, I received a letter from OPM informing me that I would be allowed to pay my military credits. The swift action on Mr. Fischer's part resulted not only in my being able to pay my military credits but also resulted in all back pay as a result of OPM reducing my annuity. My annuity was restored to be made whole.

I am so pleased I obtained Mr. Fischer to represent me in this legal case and I would not hesitate to obtain him to represent me in any further legal matters. I would recommend his office for representations without any reservations whatsoever.

Sincerely,

Ed Kearney

The U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board is an independent, quasi-judicial agency in the Executive branch that serves as the guardian of Federal merit systems. It is responsible for adjudicating employee appeals of:

• personnel actions over which the Board has jurisdiction, such as removals, suspensions, furloughs, and demotions;
• administrative decisions affecting an individual's rights or benefits under the Civil Service Retirement System or the Federal Employees' Retirement System;
• complaints filed under the Whistleblower Protection Act, the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, and the Veterans Employment Opportunities Act;
• cases brought by the Special Counsel, principally complaints of prohibited personnel practices and Hatch Act violations;
• requests to review regulations of the Office of Personnel Management that are alleged to require or result in the commission of a prohibited personnel practice-or reviewing such regulations on the Board's own motion;
• ordering compliance with final Board orders where appropriate; and
• conducting studies of the Federal civil service and other merit systems in the Executive Branch to determine whether they are free from prohibited personnel practices.
