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.

Satisfied

Scott Michael Mishkin is a lawyer with integrity, diligence and excellent knowledge of employment law. I worked my tail off in my last job to bring in multiple contracts worth over 1 million dollars. I was not paid my commission wages. Scott Mishkin listened to my case and gave feedback of my op...tions and I always felt assured that Scott would get the job done to retrieve my commission moneys. Within 6 months, Scott filed a suit and attained my commission wages with the EEOC confirming that this unethical company would have their name on file. I am very happy with Scott Mishkin, he always returned my calls day or night, and always made time to explain to me the actions and results of his law firm. My case was handled with professional precision and excellence. I highly recommend Scott and his firm.

Highy Recommend

My initial consultation with Mr. Mishkin was clearly looking out for my best interest even if it meant making a difficult choice of not moving forward with the discrimination case. I have only respect for such a professional who puts himself out for his clients and CARES about what is just even if i...t means a struggle without a payoff for him and his team. Mr Mishkin always communicated and actually listened and genuinely felt he was fighting against discrimination itself. I will recommend Mr Mishkin to anyone who needs direction from a lawyer who knows what direction to go and explain all the way. I truly felt Mr Mishkin had my best interest in mind the entire time.

Very professional, honest, and Scott and his team give you such a sense of understanding of what is happening.

I have never been anything but completely happy and calm when dealing with Scott or anyone in his team of knowledgable employees. He has given me represention through this whole litigation process, I am always fully kept up to speed with what is happening with my lawsuit, he always goes the extra mil...e in what ever stage we are in. He always makes sure I understand what is happening and what to expect next, he fully prepared me for every step of this process. He always returns calls, even after hours or weekends, in am happy that Scott Michael Mishkin and his law firm the one I choose to stand by me though this time of stress and the unknown, he is the best! I would recommend him to anyone, family, friend, or and acquaintance. I am confident that this knowledgable attorney has my back the entire time. A+ in my opinion. Thanks Scott for all you do for me!

I agree. Exceptional.

It's true. Scott Michael Mishkin and his team are rare. I knew every thing about my case step by step. Returned telephone calls, e-mails with attached court documents, regular billing statements so I knew exactly what was performed on my matter, and yes, successful litigation. Mr. Mishkin would e...ven contact me after work hours and on weekends to answer my questions. Even on Sunday. He and his team were very dedicated to my matter and I truly appreciated it. The other reviews stated he was a rare attorney and its true. Between his knowledge of the law as it applied to my allegations, and his staff's attentiveness to me, I also strongly recommend you speak with him before retaining another lawyer. He is the real deal. Thank you Mr. Mishkin.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
