The Go To Guy for Labor and Employment!

Scott knows labor and employment law and how to practice it. He is always prompt and efficient in helping me resolve any questions I have or any issues that arise. I am happy to have found him and won't turn anywhere else.

Posted by Trey | June 16, 2015 | Business

Scott's knowledge, service and reliability is excellent.

Scott Callen has done an excellent job for all of our companies. His responsiveness to our needs and his ability to turnaround documents quickly is excellent. His "outside of the box" thinking and advice has been extremely valuable to us. I highly recommend Scott for your legal issues.

"I consider Scott Callen to be in the top 1% of all lawyers representing businesses and professionals, and particularly in the field of labor and employment law. To put that in context, I’ve been practicing for 29 years, and I’ve litigated with the very best lawyers nationally, not just from Florida but in the largest and toughest areas, including New York, Chicago, Atlanta, and Washington. Scott is a top-tier lawyer. His experience in labor and employment matters is both wide and deep."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
