Scott Michael Mishkin

Losing a job is not easy especially when you know it was done in a way that is unfair or even breaks the law. I made my initial appointment with Scott and he went over every single detail and was honest to take all the information in and will honestly tell you if you have a case and proceed. If he do...esn’t think it’s something he can win for you he won’t lie to you. He’s completely honest, no result is guaranteed of course, but if you want to have someone who communicates very thoroughly, will do what’s best for YOU, then you can’t get better than him. He’s not going to entertain a case as an attempt if it’s not in your best interest. At our first appointment I knew I didn’t have to meet another attorney before I finalized my choice. I met with him and knew he would do the right thing for me and he will guide me and most importantly help at a time that is, to say the least, a hard time in your life. But knowing he’s representing you, you can feel you have a guardian standing with you to help. I can’t imagine trusting anyone else to take this over and be in control of holding people accountable on your behalf. You won’t ever wonder if you made the right choice. Almost literally you can take all the details and give them to him and he bears the weight and carries it for you. He’s a lawyer who empathizes with you, directs you, advocates for you and will do the right thing for you. I don’t think I could’ve found anyone else who would’ve been as honest, professional, empathetic, and detail all the steps you are going to take. You can be secure with him that you made the best choice at this horrible time in your life.

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.

Scott couldn’t have been more helpful and resourceful. When I was accused for incorrectly collecting Unemployment Insurance benefits by a former employer he helped tremendously. Even when I was ready to give up he was still persistent and reassuring that I was in the right. His dedication could not... be more appreciated and I would highly recommend him to anyone. Not only is he highly skilled and knowledgeable , but very compassionate and comforting as well. He treated my case with upmost priority and I cannot thank him enough.

Scott treated me with empathy and concern. He was supportive and reassuring. When he told me he considers helping people with legal problems his life’s work, I knew I was in the right place. While I am sure he was very busy with other clients, he always made me feel as if I was his only client. I cou...ld not have endured my ordeal without his very professional counsel.

Having been let go from a dream job. I didn’t know where to turn, and a friend recommended me to Attorney Mishkin. I went to see him and from that moment in the board room, I knew that I was in the right place. He was empathetic to my worries and concerns. Showed respect to my career and as the perso...n I am. Always available. Always returns call ASAP. Very knowledgeable in many situations. Listens well and if you do not understand he will be there till you do understand. Very professional office. Warming and comforting. I highly recommend Attorney Mishkin and his Firm.
