Fitapelli & Schaffer

A very close friend and I went to them for a wage suit;
That was the First mistake.
Don’t get me wrong, they will call you everytime they receive or need new information, at first. Afterwards, it’s like trying to catch a mouse.
Aside from being given false information numerous times (what we would be getting in the suit– TWICE mind you, when we would be paid, as well as settling for less than half of the initial amount) one of the partners outright lied to, when confronted, he had the audacity to tell me that I did not hear him correctly.
Picture a sweaty, horny man sitting at a craps table and you’ve got these guys.
Go somewhere else!

This review is long over due. I needed legal advice with ZERO insight other than the call L-​A-​W-​Y-​E-​R-​S commercials.
The Schaffer & Fitapelli law firm came to me by way of a very respected person in my industry. I worked solely with Brian Schaffer throughout the stages of my case but both He and Joseph Fitapelli were present for mediation.
Brian was not only supportive in guiding me through the process, but he understood my fears and prepared me for the possibilities. He was part lawyer, part big brother and all friend. (Keep in mind, this is over the course of a year!)
If I said he was beyond impressive, you’d say… Well, of course… He probably ran circles around you with his legal jargon. And… ya, you’re right, I don’t speak «attorney»…I was impressed by his confidence and knowledge. You can read a person by the way they carry themselves and treat others. And by the way, he didn’t use jargon I couldn’t understand!
When it was showtime… I had to hide my giggles with a smirk. Watching Brian and Joe do their thing was so entertaining. They were SO prepared! They had an answer/​argument for everything. It was the coolest thing to watch!
I’ve referred a few (satisfied) people to Schaffer & Fitapelli.
…I STILL bother Brian with legal questions every once and again… and he STILL responds to my emails. :)
