I recently engaged The Employment Law Group to assist me in gaining a satisfactory arrangement regarding my forced early retirement from my firm, a large professional organization. I was being pushed out the door at 59 and a half. Given the unlikely chance that I would ever regain even 1/3 of my annu...al earnings, I sought a fair deal. Scott Oswald and TEGL helped me achieve that. Scott’s team exhibited great perspective and counsel, and always worked efficiently. While I realized that my case was not very big, they never made me feel that I was a secondary client. They were prompt and responsive, and gave me the sense that they shared my sense of urgency. I would be pleased to recommend TEGL to anyone needing employment law-related assistance.

Scott is a compassionate and talented lawyer who has obviously found his calling in life. He helped me and my family through a difficult encounter with a large Firm with issues centered around the discrimination of military personnel in the workplace and specifically involving treatment of individua...ls suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I highly recommend Scott and The Employment Law Group to anyone who finds themselves being retaliated against due to "internal whistleblowing" and especially those who are veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces. Scott and his team operate with complete integrity and with the skills and knowledge that can only be considered outstanding. The financial costs of his service honestly pale in comparison to the outcome of my case. I recommend Scott and TELG with absolute confidence and without reservation knowing that anyone who reaches out to Scott for help will receive the highest level of professional assistance, personal attention, compassion and consideration.

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 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.
