The Employment Law Group (TELG) was recommended to me by a partner at a Washington, D.C. law firm,…read moreand my experience fully justified that endorsement. From my initial consultation with Scott Oswald, the firm's principal, through my work with attorney Kellee Kruse, I was consistently impressed by their professionalism, expertise, and dedication. They took the time to thoroughly evaluate my case and demonstrated a clear commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for my employment situation. Kellee was particularly responsive and communicative, always making herself available to answer questions and keeping me well-informed of developments throughout the process. I highly recommend The Employment Law Group for any employment-related matters, regardless of complexity. Their thoughtful approach and level of service make them a worthwhile investment.

I had an exceptional experience working with Attorney R. Scott Oswald. From the very first…read moreconversation, he made it clear that my situation mattered and that he was fully invested in helping me understand my options. He spent all the time needed -- never rushed, never distracted -- and walked me through the legal landscape with clarity, honesty, and insight. What stood out most was his accessibility and genuine concern. He told me multiple times to call him if anything changed, and he meant it. That level of commitment is rare. His guidance gave me direction at a time when I needed it most, and his professionalism and depth of knowledge were evident in every interaction. If you're looking for an attorney who is not only highly skilled but also truly cares about the people he represents, I cannot recommend Attorney Oswald enough. He exceeded every expectation.

I have been a client of this practice for several years. Everything had gone smoothly until this…read moreyear. I sent in all of my paperwork by March 19th, just after their deadline to have taxes submitted by April 15. No problem, they filed an extension for me. I followed up in April, and again in July to check on status... and received no reply. I called later in July, to see if I could speak with Alice (our accountant at the firm) directly. I tried a few times to reach her and on August 27 received an email informing me that Alice was no longer with the firm but that Ami would be handling our taxes. There was no other notice - not a note from Alice letting us know she was leaving, nor any sort of apology for the long lapse in communication. Ami then did our taxes and sent a link to review them. The numbers looked good, but she messed up the names on the return. I reached out to have her fix them. Silence. After multiple attempts, I finally got someone who was able to fix the names. I went to review the return and the refund amounts were now different by several thousand dollars. I politely inquired and was told this is due to a 529 plan distribution which they had somehow forgotten to include when they did the taxes earlier. They didn't have any receipts for offsetting expenses, so assumed there were none, and didn't bother to ask. It took a few tries to get that fixed, but they did. They then tried to submit my taxes electronically, but they input the wrong PIN numbers. The correct PINs were in the initial correspondence that I had sent them that included all of my relevant tax information. They were called out in a separate paragraph of my cover letter to the accountant. I re-provided the PINs over the phone and the IRS accepted the files, so I'm now hoping that it's all good. I am not a happy customer. I pay an accountant to do my taxes because they're supposed to keep things straight. In fact, the normal process to institute an internal controls program in any business is to hire accountants to make sure that things are properly - what's the word? oh... yeah... - accounted for. This firm couldn't communicate what was happening with their internal processes, and then made careless mistakes and oversights, and couldn't communicate with me about my taxes. And for the record - we had a mess of deductions, and the amount of the refund was sufficient that each month our tax filing was delayed cost us roughly $300 in interest. I've not seen any offer of recompense. I'm definitely not trusting this firm with my accounting going forward.

We have used Watter CPA for our tax preparation for a number of years, and we are very happy to…read morecontinue with them! The CPA practice has transitioned from a small number of people working in the Rockville office to an expanded practice under the umbrella of George Dimov, located in New York City. Throughout the transition, when we have had a question or concern, someone has always responded in a timely and positive way. Some of our investment statements are always delivered late in the first quarter. Usually, Watter CPA has been able to upload all our data except those pieces, so that they could be entered quickly, allowing us to file by April 15. When that last investment data is delivered to us too late, Watter CPA smoothly files an extension for us. The Rockville staff is courteous and efficient. Courtland (in the front office) knows us as returned clients and we are totally comfortable trusting her to follow through with any and every communication. This year was the first time that Mitchell prepared our taxes and it was clear that he understood our rather complicated income tax profile, expertly applying every credit we could have and taking the time to clearly explain the answers to every question. We are very happy to recommend Watter CPA/George Dimov Tax Service, and we look forward to continuing with them in future years. Larry & Nita Vorisek

I found myself lost in whistleblower retaliation hell, which I never thought possible in my line of…read morework. After consulting with the National Whistleblower Center and filing an OSHA/DOL complaint, I was put in touch with Eric Siegel. Given the level of respect for the National Whistleblower Center, I trusted the referral. He's busy, he's a lawyer and handles pretty much everything himself so it's to be expected; however, I got all the attention I needed on this matter. No missed deadlines, all submissions were timely and responsiveness was excellent. In any of these situations, you have to have a decent head on your shoulders with reasonable expections, and copies of all the receipts. A lawyer is not a magician and they either won't, or you don't want to pay them to, organize your scrapbook and rolodex. Get your goodies together, learn as much as you can about the law as it relates to your case, then call up Mr. Seigel to get the ball rolling. I ended up reluctantly settling, which went against every fiber in my being. Eric was open to whatever decision I made on the matter, and respectful of my opinions, but I landed as another statistic in the enormous settlement piece of the pie chart, not making a bit of difference for the future. I can't imagine I'd ever need him again but if I do, me and my bag of receipts will be right back in the Eric Siegel Law inbox.

They sent a single letter, which raised the offer 50%, but had the lack of ethics to demand their take on the money she already had on the table. In effect they took every penny they could instead of doing the right thing, which is to take your cut on the dollars they actually brought to the table. My wife left this firm in the exact same economic position she entered it. They are shameless. Unknowledgeable. In a call with a partner who supposedly had 25 years experience, she didn't even realize my wife's claim was ineligible for federal EEOC complaint. A threshold issue. The case strategy was badly mismanaged from the beginning as a result. They tossed her case to several lawyers in their firm and none ever learned it. Unprepared. We were double billed and only when WE realized it did they modify the billing. They cannot even block and tackle nevertheless win a case. My advice: Hire a firm that fights FOR you, not fights you. We settled for worse terms than we otherwise would have because we were tired of fighting our own lawyers at Lescht. When you need a lawyer, you need them to fight for you. Lescht does not. Seriously, shoot me an email if you are considering hiring them.

My case was against the Department of the Navy. Ms. Campbell stood toe to toe with Navy's "big wig" attorneys.

But if they make the mistake of not doing their homework and being ill prepared, she will make them regret sitting opposite. I was very pleased to witness her depose individuals.

If you need someone that will listen, respond to your questions, calls and e-mails and defend you like you are a millionaire, ask for Ms. Campbell. I can't say enough about her.
