Charles Leonard Scalise

I am an attorney licensed in Virginia who partnered with Charles as our local counsel in a complex Fair Labor Standards Act collective action in federal court in Austin, TX. We ultimately had nearly 500 "opt-in plaintiffs" join the case. Charles was extremely knowledgeable of the local federal cour...t and was a fantastic local partner in our case. I would recommend Charles to other attorneys as well as anyone looking for an employment attorney, especially in a wage and hour case.

Charles provided solid advice and exposed two items not previously understood. His certification in both Florida and Texas allowed a unique perspective and value give apposing council's location in Florida. Despite a small scope of work, I found Charles to be accessible, responsive and refreshingly... fair in his rates and time billed.

Mr. Charles Scalise represented me because my employer failed to pay over-time wages. What impressed me most was that Mr. Scalise was such an excellent communicator. He outlined the process, expectations and throughout the process answered questions and never once appeared too busy! He always took ...my calls even though I knew he must have been busy. Equally as impressive was his legal knowledge and experience. Mr. Scalise delivered strategic advice as well as intelligent litigation. Without a doubt I felt confident that I was in good hands. He was always open and honest with me and didn't tell me what I wanted to hear. He stood by me when the other side tried to push back and I was most appreciative that he allowed me to provide input and details to counter inaccurate accusations. It was that collaborative partnership that not only made me feel involved, kept me informed but provided me with a greater appreciation for his aggressive litigation! Lastly, Mr. Scalise was personable, warm, considerate yet very succinct and professional. I was very pleased with the service provided by Mr. Charles Scalise and would recommend him to my family and friends. I am submitting this post because it's easy to post reviews when we receive poor service or we're disgruntled but when we're pleased, we often take it for granted, go along our way without telling the world - this was a good experience - a lemon to lemonade experience - how about I was WOWed with great customer service and for all that - I say Thank You to Mr. Charles Scalise! Try him - trust me - You'll be pleased! Lynn
