A Teacher's Advocate!!!!!!!!

Scott is my real-life hero. He saved my career within 24 hours of our first conversation. I am a teacher who was harassed, bullied and retaliated against by school administration for advocating for the rights of my students with disabilities. My union representatives were meek and slow in their resp...onse to my claims, so I reluctantly sought out a consultation with an employment lawer. I am so glad I called Scott! I was reeling with feelings of disbelief and self doubt when I first spoke with him, but he immediately made me feel strong and validated. He created a safe space for me to tell my story. He was empathetic, with a clear understanding of the trauma I was going through from my employer's abuse. He took my story and gave it a tiger's voice. After a few exchanges with my employer, I was granted everything I needed to move forward in my career with dignity, pride and reputation in tact. He is a genius negotiator. The nightmare I was living took Scott 24 hours to reverse. I could not be more grateful. If you are a teacher who is being harassed, bullied or retaliated against by administration, Scott is your advocate.

Excellent Employment Attorney

Scott helped me when I needed someone not only for legal support but also support. Scott always looked out for my best needs and provided rational fair advice. He helped me get the most form a terrible situation. He is an outstanding attorney I strongly recommend him.

Best Lawyer to have

For a second time in my work career I needed an attorney, even though I had a written separation, severance agreement with my employer. What a nightmare this employer was, without Scott Mishkin who knows how long these people would have dragged out giving me my money owed to me. He was patient with m...y emails and questions and stayed on top of this case with my former employers lawyer, who just dragged my situation on. I knew 2 days after my being laid off, that my employer was def out to screw me, Scott answered my inquiry with a call immediately. You will find no better lawyer who will go the distance.

An advocate for wrongful termination

I was devastated when after 40 plus years I was laid off. Scott was able to not only explain my options he was was able to calm me. I didn’t think he could get me any more than what the company offered, which was an insult after all I did for them. I had almost nothing to lose so I ask him to go for ...more. When all was said and done I’m still out of work but I can afford to pay my bills while I look for work.
