There are nearly 500 Google reviews for Galperin & Associates, but one stands out.
On May 12, a former employee at the personal injury law firm in Belcaro accused it of hiding the fact that it would be paying her only $18 per hour, among other transgressions.
“I took my shot & it was a living nightmare,” wrote Jazmyne Sanchez in a one-star review. “Taking advantage of people who are (a) different race, discrimination – u name it.”
“Scum joke of a law firm,” she went on to say. “Oh and the days I worked they never paid me for. … Enjoy a scum firm who looks at people as a product not as a genuine human being.”
“All I have to say is do not bother, they will run you dry like me,” Sanchez concluded.
Galperin & Associates has a Google review rating of 4.8 out of 5. Hundreds of past clients have taken to Google to praise its work on their cases. Firm founder Jake Galperin has responded to many of those reviews, positive and negative, himself. Sanchez’s bothers him.
On June 12, Galperin & Associates sued Google for libel because it won’t delete the review.
“The prohibited Google review contained false and misleading information regarding (Galperin & Associates) that was defamatory to its reputation and character,” the firm alleges.
“Plaintiff’s clients, prospective clients, co-counsel, opposing counsel, business associates, members of the judiciary and the general public has had and continues to have unfettered access to view the prohibited Google review at any time,” it goes on to complain.
Google didn’t answer a request for comment on the Denver District Court lawsuit. Neither did Jake Galperin, who is representing his firm in its case against the tech giant.
