    "Schwarz, Perry and Heller (“SPH”) fought hard to make sure I could part from my firm with my head held high."
    Having gone through a very traumatic journey in battle with my employer, Schwarz, Perry and Heller (“SPH”) fought hard to make sure I could part from my firm with my head held high. I wanted to share my experience so that others who may have the misfortune to be in similar situations and in need of good counsel to help them through it and fight on their behalf can turn to SPH with the confidence that they will have not only excellent lawyers but also compassionate partners. Most law firms and lawyers will fight hard to win your case, in contingency scenarios their income and profits are dependent upon a win. And that, of course, is fair enough. The difference at SPH is their approach and the way they handle each individual case and client, as exactly what we are, individuals. Though they deal with cases that have many similarities, theirs is not a cookie cutter one size fits all approach. The lawyers that partner with you take the time and care to really listen to you to understand what your have gone through and how you personally need to be supported through the journey ahead. They genuinely care about helping those hard done by, even when it means taking on big firms. From my experience, I can attest that SPH will confidently go toe to toe with big corporate law firms (that seek to protect and defend employers) as they fight for your rights and your dignity. I consider myself to be a very strong person but I honestly could not have gotten through the battle against my employer if it hadn’t been for the SPH team’s care and support of me, and their passion and legal strategies to remedy the wrongs that had been done to me. Davida Perry, one of the firms most senior partners, was personally engaged in my case day, night, even weekends if required. In getting to know Davida over a period of several months, I can say that she genuinely cares about helping people and is deeply passionate about righting wrongs. I hope never to be in a situation where I might need a lawyer to help me in this manner again, but if I did, it would be SPH!

    "Hands down the best employment lawyers you will find."
    Brain Heller was my lawyer, but I got two for the price of one as Davida Perry was there every step of the way. They were always available to answer any questions, comments or concerns I had regarding my case. They were both extremely kind, compassionate and caring. I was updated every step of the way. They are both honest, transparent and hardworking; the most difficult task was parting ways with them as the make your apart of their family. Hands down the best employment lawyers you will find.

    "He was nothing but professional and incredibly responsive. I can't recommend him enough."
    Brian was extremely helpful and responsive it helping me review my first ever separation agreement. He was able to explain the legalese in a way that allowed me to understand the risks I could be taking on down the road. After speaking to him, I was able to negotiate to include additional language in my agreement that will protect my future career. He was nothing but professional and incredibly responsive. I can't recommend him enough.

    "Davida Perry not only did an amazing job calming down my nerves but she fought for me tooth and nail and did a great job securing what my past employer owed me."
    After having a terrible experience at my last job, facing the anxiety again of having to rehash the treatment was daunting. Davida Perry not only did an amazing job calming down my nerves but she fought for me tooth and nail and did a great job securing what my past employer owed me. I won’t lie, there were moments I wanted to give up, but Davida was always there to help me stay focused and realize that I didn’t need to let them win. She was really great at countering all of their arguments, I pity anyone that would try to prove her wrong. She thought of everything we need and kept me constantly updated. Mostly what I appreciated about Davida was her kindness, and her genuine care for my mental health. She wanted to make sure I was taking care of myself during a very trying time. I cannot recommend this firm enough. They all clearly care about their clients and want to do best for you. Don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself, and if you’re worried about the challenges that lie ahead be sure to team with Schwartz Perry & Heller, they will have your back and fight for justice.

    "We remain tremendously grateful for his support and look forward to working with him again."
    On short notice, Brian Heller reviewed contracts with complex international dimensions and found important discrepancies that I and other senior-level executives had missed completely. He was fast, thorough, and detail-oriented in providing pragmatic advice that enabled us to be sure that we were getting the fairest and best possible treatment under the law. We remain tremendously grateful for his support and look forward to working with him again.

    "From day 1 of the consultation to the very end I felt like the most important client to the firm."
    Amazing team of Attorneys. From day 1 of the consultation to the very end I felt like the most important client to the firm. Brian Heller who I dealt with personally was amazing. Whether it was a call or email responses were very prompt and I was kept informed every step of the way. Even a few calls just to check in and say hello. Truly an incredible experience and I would recommend them to anyone seeking justice. If they take your case they will fight with you to the end. A+

    "Words are inadequate to express how truly grateful I am to Schwartz & Perry, especially Brian Heller for his help."
    Words are inadequate to express how truly grateful I am to Schwartz & Perry, especially Brian Heller for his help. I first met Mr. Schwartz and Brian Heller a few years ago when I was working at an international firm in an IT role when I contacted them for the free consultation because I felt that I was being setup to be fired. I knew I was being treated unfairly by my manager. I felt utterly helpless and had no idea who to turn to. After meeting with Mr. Schwartz and Brian Heller, I came to understand that the unfair treatment I endured was actually discrimination. They counselled me through being fired and negotiating a settlement; an extremely upsetting and exhausting experience. They explained the rules of employment law while treating me with dignity and kindness. Due to the skill and knowledge of these attorneys, I received a substantial settlement and was able to move on to another company with my self-respect intact and without the financial hardship that would have resulted from losing my job. They also ensured that this employer could not damage my reputation going forward with future employers. Recently, when I had another issue with a different employer; I called Brian Heller right away. I knew that Brian, being extremely well versed on the latest employment laws, would be able to help me. Brian carefully guided me and I was able to “ride the wave” of unprofessionalism and threats of litigation coming my way from my former employer’s attorney. My former employer thought that they could bully and frighten me into staying with them longer so that my new job opportunity would no longer be available, and then they could let me go when it was convenient for them - and I’d be out of work. They didn’t know that I have a Secret Weapon – Brian Heller! Once Brian was on the case, those threats ceased and I was able to accept my new wonderful job and leave the worry and stress behind. I highly recommend Brian Heller and Schwartz & Perry as a firm. Over the years Brian has always treated me with kindness and respect and I have peace of mind because I have someone I trust who is on my side, who can guide me and who is willing and extremely capable of protecting my rights.

    "If you are being discriminated against, please do not hesitate to contact Brian. You won't regret it!"
    After experiencing pregnancy discrimination and retaliation from my former employer, I knew I had to seek help and contacted Schwartz and Perry immediately. Brian Heller Was amazing! He took the time to listen and made me feel like I was his only client. He always made himself available to answer any questions. Brian went above and beyond to prepare me for my depositions and hearings which helped boost my confidence. Davida also took time out of her busy schedule to help prep me and put me at ease! Together they fought a great fight! I now have closure and have been able to move on with my life. Brian and Davida, thank you again for everything! If you are being discriminated against, please do not hesitate to contact Brian. You won't regret it!

    "When my employer refused to help me stop the abuse, Schwartz and Perry advised taking additional action which resulted in a very positive outcome on my behalf."
    Experienced blatant age-related discrimination at a long time employer which negatively affected my income. Unsure of what I could do about this abuse, I turned to Schwartz and Perry for their advice. They guided me in a knowledgeable and highly professional manner in approaching my employer with the specifics of the age discrimination. When my employer refused to help me stop the abuse, Schwartz and Perry advised taking additional action which resulted in a very positive outcome on my behalf. They skillfully advised me every step of the way and I felt as if I had a smart ally in my corner. Couldn't have be more pleased with the outcome.

    "Murray I will always appreciate all you did for me and all your hard work."
    I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of beloved Murray. Murray and Brian were amazing with supporting me with my legal situation in 2005. Would not have gotten thru it without them! Murray I will always appreciate all you did for me and all your hard work. You will be missed….but I find comfort knowing God is your counsel. You truly were an angel earth and now an angel in heaven. :-)

    "Attorney Brian's handling of my situation was focused on doing what was best for me, the client."
    I'd like to express my gratitude and appreciation to Schwartz and Perry, and specifically Attorney Brian Heller. Last year I got a new boss, and though I had been successful to that point, within 2 weeks my new boss took what appeared to be strong discriminatory actions against me, and indicated I could be fired within a month. It was a tough and worrisome time for me, just a month before Christmas, I did not want to lose my management job in this manner because, in my industry word gets around easily. Forced to seek counsel, I came to Schwartz & Perry. Meeting with Attorney Brian Heller was an unexpectedly wonderful and calming experience, he was superbly professional and cordial and helped me get through the difficult period.Though Schwartz and Perry's compensation was based on contingency, Attorney Brian's handling of my situation was focused on doing what was best for me, the client. Bottom line is, 8 months later I still have my job due to the excellent actions of Attorney Brian Heller of Schwartz and Perry.

    "We fought a good fight and emerged victorious-which I was always confident we would."
    Dear Davida and Matt: It is with deep and heartfelt gratitude that I'd like to thank you for all of your hard work and diligence. We fought a good fight and emerged victorious-which I was always confident we would. All the best in your future work-anyone who has you guys on their side is very lucky.

    "Not only were they good lawyers, but they treated me with complete respect. They treated me like family."
    When I called Schwartz and Perry, it was out of desperation. I was having a very difficult time at work and I realized that my bosses were treating me poorly because of my age. They believed I was incompetent because I was older than them. They decided to take my case and advocated on my behalf until the issue was resolved. Not only were they good lawyers, but they treated me with complete respect. They treated me like family. I highly recommend them!

    "Finding a good lawyer is challenging in NYC, but, if you are Lucky to have Schwartz &Perry on your side, you know you are a Winner!!!!"
    December is always a time for Celebration & Happiness. NYC is beaming with Santa Claus, Christmas lights, everyone is happy. I was not in a joyful mood, I was extremely depressed and at the end of the rope. I was just fired from my job, I hired a lawyer who was expensive, incompetent and befriended my former boss!!!! After sending an email to the firm I received a call from Davida herself and we schedule a meeting 2 days later. The consultation is free which is great. When I came to their office, I was exhausted and disenchanted. I dealt with so many rude lawyers I was thinking about giving up I was emotionally drained. Davida was a bowl of “fresh air” you can tell she cares about her clients and she was genuine. She came with Matthew; they were professional, listened to me, treated me with kindness and decency. They asked me question and after assessing my case they decide to take me as a client! This was the “Best Christmas” in a long, long time. (18 years of struggling Immigrant Life in NYC. Being discriminated against, treated like a 2nd class citizen, or fired just because… I never dare to say anything because I was scared, but, this time I decided to fight back) Finding a good lawyer is challenging in NYC, but, if you are Lucky to have Schwartz &Perry on your side, you know you are a Winner!!!! They care about the little people and they will fight for you! They only have one motto: “Winning” Davida Perry & Matthew Schatz – Thank you from the bottom of my heart for believing in me and for making me feel like I was worth it.

    "hey took the time out to listen to me and my entire account of what happened to me before they even signed me as a client."
    Davida and Matt were very patient and understanding from the very beginning. They took the time out to listen to me and my entire account of what happened to me before they even signed me as a client. They were also very good at communicating to me how the proceedings would take place. I was in a very desperate place having lost my job and they guided me to make the smartest decision for me and my family. Thank you so much guys, 2015 is such a better year for my family and I thanks to you!

    "Your services fall under the category of priceless and somewhat in the miracle worker category."
    Subject: A Letter of Thanks Brian/Matt, I am writing this email to say thank you for what you were able to accomplish in such a relatively short amount of time. When I lost my job as abruptly as I did, and without thanks from my former employer for 28 years of what I felt as did others of my colleagues and former managers at my company was dedicated, committed service and prior outstanding performance, I was stunned. When the reality took hold as it did, it was probably one of the worst days of my working life. I felt powerless but also felt I had to do something to defend my rights and my reputation if I could. I had conferred with 4 other law firms whose specialty was employment law who told me I did not have a case for wrongful termination before we all met. I found your firm after I went to the Internet again and your firm's name appeared. I read the history and the testimony as well as the precedent setting successes the firm achieved over a very long period of time. That and the praise for your services from your former clients was what sold me on us having to meet. From the day we spoke on the phone and the in-person meetings to follow, you both treated me with dignity and respect. I will not soon forget that. Then the magic words, 'we would love to represent you for what is apparently just not right' was the most uplifting words I had heard to date. That you were able to successfully take what I had shared verbally as well as through evidence my prior performance reviews and provide me with the outcome I was looking for when I was let go, I will be forever grateful: the severance I felt I was entitled to and wrongfully denied. Despite the challenges put forth by opposing counsel, your success in achieving my goal, is clearly a testament to all the years of professional and precedent setting success you've enjoyed. That is due in my opinion to the outstanding legal skills you possess in having represented me and countless others. More importantly though it is also the respectful demeanor that both of you so clearly displayed throughout the time leading to the outcome as well as the empathy for my plight, you showed at a very difficult time in my life. I am a better person not only for the victory you won, but having had the privilege in getting to know you as I did. It sounds like your other clients feel somewhat the same way. I would highly recommend your services to anyone who feels they have been wrongfully terminated and feels as if they are in a no-win situation.. Your services fall under the category of priceless and somewhat in the miracle worker category. Your personal and professional demeanor are a model that all of your peers should admire and emulate. Thank you again on behalf of my wife too who is grateful for what you have done for us. We now have peace of mind until I land at my next career stop. I will call you both when, not if, that happens. Please share this email with your colleagues and friends and peers. I feel now I consider to us to have become friends in the process. Best regards and best wishes for your firm's continued success in the future. Dave

    "The two months I spent at Schwartz & Perry were an extremely fulfilling experience."
    I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you so very much for the experience this summer. The two months I spent at Schwartz & Perry were an extremely fulfilling experience. Not only was the day to day practice of actually helping people very satisfying, but the amount I learned has given me the confidence I need to successfully enter the legal profession and pursue my career goals. For this, I cannot thank you enough! I feel that the promises you made to me at the start of the summer were more than satisfied, and I walked out of your offices not only with a sense of accomplishment, but also a sense of preparedness for what lies ahead. I do hope that you will continue to offer the summer program for many years to come, as I wish other budding lawyers to share in the sense of satisfaction that I feel after spending time at Schwartz & Perry LLP.

    "Davida, you were not so quick to dismiss a 24 year employees dilemma."
    There are few events in ones life that can be as devastating as the destruction of your career. The loss of what one loves to do is compounded, when the termination is unjustified. It is hard to describe the horrible feeling, knowing that the essence of your humanity has been condemned. These feelings of helplessness were what I was experiencing in August 1994. I felt that I was thrown overboard without a lifeline. I contacted several law firms, seeking justice for what was done to me. Not one was interested in the case. Most felt that the fight was not going to have profitable returns for their firms. They seemed to collectively adopt the attitude of get over it. They somehow made it seem that my termination was my own fault. After talking with them, I felt more like the defendant than the plaintiff. Then one fateful day, my tax accountant told me that his daughter was interning in your office. I called expecting the same reaction that I had encountered from other law offices. To my surprise I was greeted by a voice of reassurance and support. Davida, you were not so quick to dismiss a 24 year employees dilemma. The more I talked to you, the more hopeful I became. Maybe someone was starting to throw me that lifeline I so desperately needed. Shortly afterwards, I met Murray. For 7 years I not only received the professional services of a Super Lawyer, but the wisdom and compassion of a friend. Murray played a large part in helping me gain my self confidence back. He could be intellectually demanding, but that prodding and encouragement was what I needed. If success in winning cases is the mark of a Super Lawyer, Murray fits the role. If passion for justice and the underdog is the mark of a Super Lawyer, Murray fits the role. If the ability to have his client hold a life time admiration and respect for him, then Murray fits the role of a Super Lawyer. Thank you Davida for keeping in touch. Also thank you for starting the ball rolling on my case. I will always have the deepest affection and respect for both of you.

    "I am truly grateful to have had you and your team on my side."
    I felt it necessary to drop you a line to say how pleased I am with the outcome of my case. When I came to your office for the first time, I was distraught. My work environment had deteriorated into an intolerable situation. You explained my legal rights both clearly and succinctly, yet you did so with genuine warmth and compassion. Your staff, especially Brian Heller, treated me with courtesy and respect as he kept me informed along the way. It was such a relief to have someone who could speak on my behalf when no one at my work place would listen. I could not have imagined a better outcome. I am truly grateful to have had you and your team on my side.

You restored my dignity, self respect and confidence. Many times you just listened and reassured me when times were tough. You were my counselor in every sense of the word. Your partner, associates and staff all treated me with the same high level of respect and warmth, your way is contagious! I count you among my life's blessings.
    - C.

    On behalf of myself and my family I would like to thank you for having enough faith in my case. A special thank you for working so hard to resolve the matter so expeditiously. I certainly thought the resolution of this matter would be at least a year down the line but the hard work by Brian in the beginning, along with your support staff, made it not so. Thanks to Schwartz and Perry for the work that you do on behalf of the employees.
    - M.

    "You will always hold court as the most remarkable man we have ever known."
    We want to express our gratitude to you, and hope that our words can convey the depth of our feelings. For you, Murray, are no ordinary mortal. You are so blessed with wisdom, kindness, grace and humility that you are truly larger than life. It is difficult to convey how heartfelt our appreciation is. Of course, the help that you have given J. is the remarkable result of extraordinary efforts by you and your most talented associates. That was easy to see. But underlying the steadfast commitment and devotion to trying to making J. whole again has been a degree of patience and dedication that, until now, I would never have imagined possible. I might have lost count of the many instances that tested your forbearance, but I have not forgotten -and will never forget- how imperturbable you were in the face of all kinds of obstacles. That alone should qualify you for sainthood. From the first moment we met you I began to experience the true and deep meaning of one's dedication to family, for you, Murray, truly are the embodiment of what it means to be an exemplary father, grandfather and yes -and this we can see in Paula's loving eyes- husband. You have taught me -or at least tried to- a great deal about how importantly constancy, composure, courage and flexibility contribute to a life well lived. Every time I feel my patience being tested now, I try to stop and ask myself, "What would Murray do or say?" Believe me, it's not so easy to teach this old dog (young pup to you, I suppose) new tricks, but you have touched our hearts so very deeply that learning as much as we can from you becomes the best way we can honor you for all you mean to us. Your passionate devotion to your profession, legendary though it might be on the wider stage of the legal community, is so clearly personalized in actual practice that there is no way anyone can come close to equaling all that you represent both as a tireless advocate and as a fully engaged, caring human being. You have earned not only our utmost respect and gratitude, but you have secured a special place in our hearts. It is there that you will always hold court as the most remarkable man we have ever known.

    "I will be forever grateful and I give the highest recommendation to this firm."
    Nine months ago I was depressed and discouraged after enduring two years of sexual harassment from my boss. I had spoken with two attorneys and felt even more discouraged and confused. Then someone gave me the name of Murray Schwartz. I called him and he told me I could come to his office the same day. I arrived and received respect, individual attention, a box of tissues for the tears, and, most important, excellent legal advice. Matt Schwartz was assigned to my case and I cannot remember when I have been so impressed with any individual. He was caring, attentive, and exceedingly professional. Every phone call I ever placed to him was returned almost immediately. He made me feel like the most important person in the world. Most of all, I knew I was in excellent hands legally with both Mr. Schwartz and Mr. Schwartz. I watched Mr. Schwartz handle my case with great legal skill. I will be forever grateful and I give the highest recommendation to this firm.
    - B.
    "Words cannot express the gratitude I have."
    Words cannot express the gratitude I have in my heart for you and your fine staff! I never ever could have gotten through my horrible ordeal without the support of you, Brian and your staff. You all had so much faith in me, and "picked me up" every time I "fell down." You all encouraged me to remain strong and never give up. Your words of wisdom worked because look at the outcome! Your belief in me made justice prevail… and for that thank you just isn't enough. Murray, not only are you an amazing attorney, you are an amazing man. You are far from the typical lawyer, you are a dear friend. You are truly genuine and I was touched by the tremendous amount of care and concern you gave to me. Even though you have several cases, you make your client feel that their case is the only one you are working on… that's because you give the individual so much attention! You are a class act! I am so blessed to have had you and your team in my corner! I would never want anyone else by my side!

    "I trusted them entirely."

    I received the most compassionate and professional assistance from SP&H. I felt that Mr. Heller truly cared about me and the situation I was in. He was able to be my voice during a difficult time. He responded promptly to any correspondence, took the time to explain to me any questions or concerns, and helped ease any kind of stress that I had during a dispute with a previous employer. I highly recommend this firm. You are not just a number, they treat you like family. I trusted them entirely. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your devoted time and effort in my legal matter.
