Scott B. Goldshaw

I engaged/retained this firm after having trying to engage 3 other attorneys — who ghosted. My first contact was with Andi Paul who explained the process and set the tone that Id be working with decent human beings who would not merely treat this as a transaction. Scott Goldshaw was the only person I... had to recount my situation — no repeating over and over. Scott provided some education that facilitated our having a common language and expedited our work. He consulted with me — establishing goals and expectations. We worked out an efficient process of collaboration where we shared resources and documents. Scott has a breadth of knowledge about the law and also various organizations in Phila - he is also known for litigating in court - which is a distinct advantage. But what was most important to me at this time was that, as Andi foreshadowed, this was consistently a human interaction. Importantly, it was reassuring to work with a lawyer who was familiar with PTSD. Every interaction was humanistic, trustworthy, and kind. The conclusion met our goals quickly.

I have relied on Scott to review two complex Pharma/Biotech employment contracts and was extremely pleased with the process and outcome. Scott's legal analysis and advice was spot-on. Additionally, he explains issues clearly and is very responsive to client questions. I have recommended his legal se...rvices to other colleagues who have had the same excellent experience.

Scott Goldshaw took my case back in 2006, he was always honest with me about my chances and stuck with me patiently explaining why and what he was doing and reassuring me when I needed it. My case took years and he had a way of making me feel like I was the most important client he had. We ended up ...resolving the situation with a great outcome that I think even surprised Scott. Now, years later I reached out to Scott again on another manner. He took the time to speak to me immediately. His advice was spot on even though I was uncomfortable with it. He walked through the scenario more than once until I was comfortable with our path forward even going through every line of the document to show me how he came up with his advice. The situation is not over but I feel confident with Scott by my side. Scott is always aware of the costs involved, making sure I do not spend more than I have to. I wish I didn't need him but when I do I sure am glad he is on my side. He is one of a kind!

Scott Goldshaw is an outstanding lawyer. He is very experienced in his field (employment law), he is extremely sharp, smart, knowledgeable, and highly strategic. But his uniqueness is in his ability to truly relate to his clients' situations and deeply understand their cases, positions, and points of... view. In my experience with him as my lawyer, Scott always took the time to listen carefully to what I had to say, to explain the logic behind his clever strategies and recommendations (multiple times, if needed), to consult and direct me in the right path, and most importantly, Scott helped me achieve results that were beyond my expectations. While working with him, I felt that I had a sophisticated, driven, and caring partner on my side. One example was the way he prepared me for my first deposition; Scott made sure I was ready, able, and that I felt comfortable with the process. I never thought I'd say this about a lawyer, but it was a pleasure to work with him and to be his client. Scott Goldshaw is the lawyer you want on your side when you need help!

I was the Senior Executive Vice President, second in command, of an $ 80 million industrial manufacturing company reporting to the CEO who was also the majority controlling owner. Scott Goldshaw represented me and presented/argued my case in arbitration against the Senior Partner Head of the Employm...ent / Labor Division of a major Philadelphia firm. Scott won the case resulting in a six figure award for me (one of the largest of its kind at the time) and payment of my legal fees. I can not say enough about how professional and caring / considerate Scott was through out all of the phases of preparing, the depositions, and the arbitration trial. Scott is extremely competent and expert in his field. His work ethic, commitment to a successful outcome and counseling to me was extraordinary. It was quite impressive watching him go against another “big gun” and win almost all of the arguments. His knowledge and expertise particularly of the rules of evidence is unmatched. I have no reservations recommending any of the Lawyers at Salmanson Goldshaw for whatever employment - labor law needs you may have either as an individual or to represent your company. Frank
