Excellent attorney and person, best decision ever

I hired Attorney Schofield to take over my case from another attorney. I was so beaten down when I finally found Mr Schofield, but he managed to restore my faith in (some of) the legal industry. I was amazed and so relieved at his integrity, expert negotiating, consistent communications, and follow... up. He quickly got the best possible results for me in only a couple months after 2 years of previous delays, critical missed filing deadlines, gaslighting, huge retainer fee, fee shifting, and case abandonment by another. Mr Schofield's assistant is perfectly in sync with him and keeps things running efficiently with her professional and thorough communications. What a great team! It is very important to deeply research whom you hire - and be sure they don't farm out your case. Check into disciplinary actions and complaints at the Florida Bar and other websites, search online reviews, contact other clients, and review case files. Become familiar with the Rules of Professional Conduct and know your client rights and grounds for malpractice. Hiring the wrong attorney can be very costly and emotionally devastating - at a time when you can afford neither. Hire Mr Schofield from the start and avoid a lot of needless suffering and expense.

Need a great attorney? Look no further....

Mr. Schofield is a true professional and did a great job handling a case for my company. I am very thankful to have had the opportunity to work with such a professional. If you need an attorney for any labor dispute, this is the attorney you want to hire!

Responsive, thorough and compassionate

I had a sudden and stressful need to speak with an employment lawyer and found Mr. Schofield randomly online. It was extremely fortuitous as I was able to secure a meeting on short notice and the advice he provided indicated he had thoroughly read my material beforehand and comprehended the situatio...n quite well. He asked excellent questions and provided sound advice so that I was able to navigate a difficult situation with confidence. In addition to his legal acumen, I was especially impressed when he offered both me and my spouse (who wasn't even on the call) the opportunity to ask follow-up questions via email at any point down the road. It was unexpected and reassuring given the events. I would also note that the paralegal assisting us, Ms. Main, was equally responsive and professional. I highly recommend Mr. Schofield and will use him again without hesitation should a need arise.

Excellent Attorney

I am happy to write this review for Art Schofield as a former client. I was illegally terminated from my job by a huge corporation. I looked up lawyers on the website for NELA and found Art's listing and subsequently had a consult in which Art skillfully evaluated my situation and told me how the c...ompany broke the Family and Medical Leave law and I hired him immediately. I was impressed by Art's legal analysis, articulateness, knowledge of the law, and his plan to pursue a settlement or lawsuit on my behalf. As I got to know him better, I became equally impressed by Art as a person and his handling of my lawsuit. Art is obviously sincere and dedicated and he explained the process clearly from the beginning and throughout the course of the case after the initial filing, the mediation, and the ongoing settlement negotiation which ultimately resulted in a successful settlement about a year after I was terminated. Art was always available to talk in a timely manner and his paralegal Renae was also always great in juggling details and keeping me informed. The company's lawyers also took Art seriously because of Art's excellent reputation and it made a positive difference in getting the company to the settlement. I know I wouldn't have gotten the settlement I got without Art and Renae's excellent talent, work and dedication to fight the injustice I suffered by the corporation. Thank you Art and Renae.

Knowledgeable and sharp lawyer

Arthur is an excellent lawyer. He is extremely knowledgeable. Arthur began working in my case since May 2019 and took him less than a year to solve it, on March 2020. During this period of time him and his assistant Renae worked diligently to collect all documents and witnesses to make my case stro...nger. I went to a different labor lawyers before him with failing results. Arthur was very sharp to helped settle my case against my ex-employer in a very good terms before handling in court.
