My firm was experiencing a major expense reduction and my position was to be eliminated. There was a meaningful discrepancy between what I believed the firm's obligations were to me and the firm believed their obligations to be relative to severance. I initially engaged with Scott Oswald as he review...ed the merits of my position. Subsequently, David Scher assumed responsibility for advising me and interfacing with the firm. The dynamics of the conversation changed immediately upon Dave's involvement and we had full resolution on primary terms within three weeks. Both attorneys were professional, knowledgable, responsive and very effective in a negotiation environment.

Mr. R. Scott Oswald, Mr. Nick Woodfield, and the Employment Law Group successfully represented me in a five year whistleblower/employment case against my employer, a U.S. Government Agency. Attorneys are like physicians in that when you need a specialist, you want the best. The ELG may be expensiv...e, but I have found that you get what you pay for when it comes to representation. Our case took five years to litigate against the Agency and the Merit Systems Protection Board. Ultimately, my case went before the U.S. Federal Circuit Court of Appeals and we won a precedent setting decision. Scott reviewed my case initially. He told me at the time, "this case is going to be difficult, but we can win it….are you ready to go all the way?". His evaluation was 100% correct. My Agency (and the MSPB) fought us every step of the way, but thanks to Scott, Nick, and the ELG, we prevailed. When I first arrived at the ELG, I was beaten down and despondent. Scott, Max Masinter, and the ELG team listened to my story, picked out the relevant issues, developed an action plan, and gave me the strength to keep fighting. I really indebted to them for saving my job and giving me my life back. I would recommend them without hesitation.

I'm an attorney. I retained Scott and his team to handle an employment separation agreement for me. Admittedly, my demands were modest and reasonable, but they were important to me, and Scott delivered on all of them. Never once did I question his judgment or his team's commitment to my matter. I... highly recommend Scott and The Employment Law Group.

I highly recommend Scott Oswald and The Employment Law Group. From the start, Scott took my case very seriously and saw the legal merits of my claims of discrimination and retaliation. Scott anticipated the exact actions my former employer was about to take and enabled me to be prepared and safeguard...ed by the law and his team's representation. Scott is to be commended for his commitment to helping working people protect their rights, and prevail, (as in my case, through a negotiated settlement), in the face of labor and employment law violations by employers.
