"A superior level of expertise in a complex area of the law"

I write to acknowledge TELG for their professionalism
while handling my litigation, especially to attorneys Adam and Scott. I
came to consult with Scott at the very beginning, which later turned out to
be very rewarding. A lawsuit is a long, uncomfortable and stressful
process. I was lucky to have Adam and Scott along with me, listening details
of my case, absorbing my opinions, keeping me informed timely, preparing
documents carefully, and making convincing recommendations and decisions.
In every step of the way, they showed me a superior level of expertise in a
complex area of the law. Much more, I was very impressed by their skills in
the court. Most importantly, they obtained me a good result. I appreciate
very much that Adam, Scott, and their associates in TELG have done,
including their great efforts and valuable experience.

"Exceeded our expectations"

When searching for an attorney I searched for someone who was knowledgeable in all matters of employment law, a stellar communicator and someone who would be aggressive when necessary and not afraid to “get his hands dirty”. I found those attributes and more in Scott Oswald.

As a legal professional and as a person he conducts himself in the most respectful and professional manner imaginable.

As my counsel he possessed an expertise in all areas of the law that pertained to my case and used his vast skill set to methodically create a plan that combined reasonable negotiations with out sacrificing the tactical leverage necessary to pursue successful litigation.

Attorney Oswald retains a loyal and dedicated staff that worked diligently on our behalf and always kept the lines of communications open. He possessed a great work ethic and was very sensitive to the urgency and sensitivity of our issues.

Mr. Oswald’s fortitude in fighting to preserve my right of access to the court system was compelling and matched only by his quick wit and compassionate demeanor.

A positive outcome was reached that exceeded our expectations. And these results were obtained in an efficient and timely manner.

I highly recommend Scott Oswald as a legal advocate for anyone who wishes to seek redress in our court system.

"His evaluation was 100% correct."

“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 expensive, 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.”

"Above and beyond my expectations"

“I retained Scott to represent me when my employment was terminated wrongfully. He did a thorough investigation of the case before agreeing to represent me. Within two weeks of agreeing to represent me, I had a settlement letter in my hand from my former employer. The terms of the settlement were far better than I had expected. Not only I received the maximum monetary compensation that I could, but I also received title to significant intellectual property that was in dispute. Scott went above and beyond my expectations to draft a settlement agreement that was very favorable for me and provided significant legal protection for any future claims.”

"I appreciate his hard work and support"

Scott Oswald handled two cases for me and I cannot say enough about how much I appreciate his hard work and support. I lost the first case due to a technicality that Scott and his team had warned me about prior to taking the case but he did not let that deter him. He pressed on at my request and won the second case with pride. All through the preparation and investigation into the facts of the case, Scott maintained the utmost of professionalism. He exhibited an impressive knowledge base as he won my case against a large pharmaceutical company, and his actions spoke volumes about his character when he helped me arrange the financial support to see the case through to completion. Since my case Scott has stayed in touch and provided additional help when needed. I give Scott Oswald an overall excellent rating.
