Client Satisfaction

The circumstances at the time of our last interaction were such that I did not have a chance to fully express my appreciation for the excellent work you and your team did in connection with the case. I wanted to take the opportunity now to let you know how much it meant to me to be able to rely on such a wise and distinguished expert and colleague. It is with deep respect and gratitude that I say thank you.

Thanks for your spectacular work on this! Then orally, Plaintiff’s counsel said the second defense counsel told him I just read the transcript of your HR guy, damn, he was on fire.

I am pleased to let you know that trial has concluded and we received a verdict completely in [the employer’s] favor. Trials are won by witnesses and facts – not by lawyers…
Your hard work preparing for this case and honesty were both noted by the jury, who spent less than three hours deliberating following a three-week trial. I cannot thank you enough for the time you spent in addition to everything else going on in your lives in preparation for this matter

Great job today. Thank you so much, Scott, for everything. For your flexibility. I so appreciate you. Again, you did a really great job. It was a pleasure working with you.

Hi Michael, I wanted to let you know that we were able to resolve the… case this afternoon.
It was a real pleasure working with you, and we appreciate all the work you put into this case. I really enjoyed having the opportunity to see you testify at your deposition.
Then to her partner, Definitely- Michael’s testimony was key.

Mike – [it] was a pleasure working with you again. As usual you were terrific. I think on cross you helped our case as effectively as if I’d been permitted to question you as planned.

You were one of the best experts I have ever worked with.

You rock!!! Thanks so much – excellent fencing.

We’d also like to thank you for all the time and effort you put into conducting a professional and thorough investigation.

Thanks for your testimony. Hit the spot.

Please thank Michael for his testimony. He was really great and …I really enjoyed working with him.

I really enjoyed the Workplace Investigation Training and got a lot of useful information. Both leaders are incredibly qualified, well versed in legal, and were able to provide expert training on investigations and how to write the report.

I would give this training a 10! I felt the presenters were passionate about what they were training us on so made it interesting and informative.

Thank you so much for organizing the training! I have returned to my office with an array of information and new knowledge that I will use in my job. I liked everything about the training, the set-up, organization, and the deliver style. Both Michael and Cathy were excellent trainers, and I will definitely attend other trainings they conduct.

I learn from doing and even though the mock was out of my comfort zone I appreciated the feedback given after every mock interview. It helped me understand how to react, what is ok and not ok during a difficult situation.

It is my sincere opinion that this type of training is indispensable for all HR/Admin staff. I will certainly be promoting this in my network.

Hello EXTTI team, I just wanted to take a moment and express my gratitude for making the time to train us this week. I found the content to be relevant, engaging, and timely! Thanks so much for advancing my professional development.

Thanks again for all your great work. I’m looking forward to working together again.

Tell Michael he’s in the Hall of Fame for testifying witnesses—he was awesome!

The jury said your testimony showed that the employer didn’t do anything to help the plaintiff or prevent the discrimination / the investigation was a sham…. that the company’s investigation was a disaster.

The jury loved you and actually said your testimony solidified them in our favor. They were all with us.

Thanks for all your help. I’m going to start doing more employment cases, will definitely be using you.

Jury verdict came down yesterday. We won on the failure to engage in the interactive process…. Thanks again for your help. You did great. Time to prepare the motion for attorney’s fees.

Your declaration was so compelling the other side settled!

Scott–Thanks for your assistance on the case, I appreciate your professionalism and will not hesitate to designate you in future matters.

Cathy: Your help was invaluable. Can you believe we won a discrimination claim with a middle aged white Republican male represented by a Mexican?? WHOA! That’s one for the books!

Thanks Michael! We’re very happy … and we really appreciate all your help. You were critically important … and the entire team told me that you were fantastic on the stand and that the jury liked you.

Thank you for your service as an expert, once again. You are always so fabulous.

Thank you for your service as an expert, once again. You are always so fabulous.

Thank you…for your important contributions.

Just retained you again, so it is not the last you will be seeing of us or us of you. Your assistance was invaluable. Look forward to working with you again.

We have worked with a lot of experts in our careers, but you are unquestionably the best prepared and most articulate of the bunch. We were very impressed and the fact that opposing counsel asked only one question – one that actually supports your view of things – was proof in the pudding. All I can say is bravo!

We won everything. Thanks so very much for your assistance!!!

Thanks for all your amazing testimony…it was very clear, lucid, informative and persuasive.

Yesterday, Scott Barer gave an outstanding and informative employment workplace investigations seminar for a section of the California Employment Lawyers Association. A big thanks to Scott for taking the time out and providing practical and useful advice. I would encourage anyone needing an expert for workplace investigations to give Scott a ring.

I enjoyed working with you very much on the…case and always knew I would get great input in a responsive manner each time I called. I look forward to working with you again….

We won on all claims (fail to accommodate, fail to interact and disability discrimination); verdict was $531K. Your testimony was very effective, I think, by the way. So I thank you for that, big time…. Nice client; good jury; strong HR expert. The winning combo!

By the way, I saw for the first time first hand your tremendous testifying skills in the … deposition. I never read it before but remember the … attorney who defended (said) you were the best expert he had ever seen. Your clarity and cleanness in testifying comes through very strong in the transcript.

You were magnificent as usual.

Verdict in our favor on harassment and failure to prevent harassment …. Thanks again for your help as I think it obviously made a difference.

Scott, your testimony was the ‘missing link’ — they came back in favor of the plaintiff — $500,000-plus.…The jurors listened to you; in fact, they asked for your CV during deliberations. So, you must be ‘the man.

I just wanted to let you know how fantastic Cathy was today at trial… Cathy’s demeanor was perfect and she gracefully weaved in facts without effort. You guys are a tremendous team and I appreciate the work that you do…even if sometimes you do work for the defense!

I want you to know that I thought your depo testimony was so impressive. If you ever need a recommendation or quote, etc. for your web site, just let me know.

I gave you an excellent recommendation. I hope you get the gig.

We won the trial. The jury came back 10-2 after about 2 hours in our favor on all counts…. I really appreciate your professionalism and excellent work

You go over and beyond in being an expert! The best that I have ever seen…. You are a real professional. Thank you.

You are awesome.

You were fantastic…

Tnx a million times for your help and support!!!

Thank you for your help. Your testimony was crucial to the case. …I posted on 4 listservs re: the verdict and also how crucial your testimony was and how great you … were at trial…. (They only asked for read back of your testimony. I know we would have lost if we didn’t have you)!!!

He was awesome. He was also extremely helpful and generous with me, particularly in helping me prep for my cross of other witnesses.

Scott, you were awesome!

Again you were awesome in your depo, I have never seen anything like that before, in 21 years of practice. Thanks …. They might still be in shock from your performance.

Thank you for your assistance and invaluable knowledge on this case. I have referred your contact information to two other attorneys and will continue to do so in the future. The jury also spoke very highly of you and said that your testimony definitely assisted them in coming to a verdict.

You tied it all together for the jury. It was just fabulous. Great, great testimony….And I think you blew away everybody, including opposing counsel. It’s quite remarkable what you are able to do.

One of the jurors, the young female, … said you were plaintiff’s best witness. Clearly, you outshone the opposing expert, who was evasive, needed questions repeated (once stating she was having a ‘blonde moment’), and she came across as a hired gun, without much to add. …. we are pleased to prevail, and credit your assistance as being crucial to our case.

I’ve been singing your praises to everyone at our firm …. Thank you so much for being so helpful and available– especially when we were doing all the depo prep work and for your trial testimony.
