Outstanding Highly Recommend

I am a professional and run a very active heavily employed public business. Mr. Mishkin's Law Firm was highly recommended to me to defend my business in claims for discrimination, retaliation and unpaid wages. Mr. Mishkin and his staff were successful in representing my business interests and mysel...f and my partners could not have been more satisfied and appreciative of the outcome and effort of this wonderful and knowledgeable Law Firm. Mr. Mishkin not only walked me through the law, but he understood the emotional distraught this action caused myself and my business partners. Kudos to Mr. Mishkin and his staff. How great this Firm is. Myself and my partners highly recommend this dedicated and caring Law Firm.

The Reviews are Correct.

I have just completed representation by Scott Michael Mishkin PC. Outstanding. The reviews were correct and I am happy to say so. Mr. Mishkin and his staff were with me the entire way. Updates continuously, whether good or bad, and always trustworthy and truthful. Ms. Mishkin sets the standards.... His Firm's complaint, their deposition prep and taking of depositions, and fighting passionately for me against the opposing sides motions and arguments were excellent. I highly recommend you meet with his Firm before retaining another regular law firm.

The Real Deal

I spoke with eleven attorney's including Mr. Mishkin, before retaining his law firm. He was the second attorney I spoke with and I knew I wanted his Firm to represent me. There was something about him. He was genuine and he listened to me. A bit of sense of humor as well, which was refreshing, es...pecially under the circumstances that caused me to retain his firm. Throughout his firm's representation, his staff was second to none. I received fantastic service and advise and most important dedicated representation. I read the other reviews and its true, Mr. Mishkin and his staff rare attorneys these days, I highly recommend him and his law firm if you have been discriminated against and haven't been paid your wages.

Rare Attorney

From our initial consultation and follow up up through the end of his representation of me, Scott was outstanding. He listened to me and always set forth options based on the law and the facts of my case. He is truly a rare attorney these days, as he always returned my telephone calls, (which were ...often) and would meet with me whenever I wanted or he felt the need for me to come in so he could explain a procedure or the potential harm to my case. I highly recommend him. So rare and so dedicated. He cares.

Very trustworthy. Unbelievable communication

I am an employee of the courts. My faith in attorneys was at an all time low. I needed my own attorney and was referred to Mr. Mishkin. I was very skeptical when i arrived. After speaking to him for a while, I realized how knowledgeable he was and could not believe how much time he spent listeni...ng and advising me of my options. When I read the bad review on this site, I just couldn't believe it. That has NOT been my experience at all. He is very attentive, will take your phone calls and will always get back to you if he can't. I work with hundreds of attorneys everyday and Scott is BY FAR superior. Ive found that people do a little bit of research ,if at all, but they don't fully understand the law so if the outcome isn't what they expected, they get angry and the easiest person to blame is the attorney. Scott has made a very stressful situation so much easier for me. His office staff is also amazing and go above and beyond to help the clients. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
