Scott Mancinelli helped me with a lawsuit regarding a real estate issue. I am so glad I had him as my attorney. He really fought for me and the settlement went my way. If I have any issues in the future he will be the one I call.
We hired Scott to defend our son. The case content was something Scott had not worked in before. He did a great job and was very professional. He communicated with us every step of the way.
I was faced with a difficult situation with my then employer. My bonuses/commissions were being withheld as well as subsequent restructuring of same that were not in my best interest. As a valued salesperson on staff that brought in $750K annually, I felt backed into a corner. I contacted Scott Mancinelli, who I had done business with before, for advice. He coached me as to what I could or could not do as I approached the Executive Team. I ultimately hired Scott who assisted me with securing a separation package, as I no longer wanted to be under their employ. His response was timely, educated, firm and successful in my current situation. I have and will continue to recommend Scott for his services.
Scott was very quick to understand the issues in a threatened lawsuit and quickly responded with a convincing response to the opposing attorney. Scott directed the flow of our mediation perfectly and we came to settlement in a satisfactory way. Easy to work with and does exactly what he says he will do. Highest recommendations!
