Cantrell Schuette Employment & Franchise Lawyers

Working with Ashwin and his team was an outstanding experience. They made a stressful situation clear and manageable, communicated every step with confidence, and advocated for me with real expertise. Thanks to their guidance, we secured a fair settlement and I was able to move forward. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care stood out throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Ashwin and his team to anyone needing support with an employment matter.

Jay Lechner handled my employment case with professionalism, expertise, and genuine care. He set clear and realistic expectations about possible outcomes from the start, guided me through every step, and kept me informed along the way. I'm grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone seeking an outstanding employment lawyer.

Thank you for taking the time to speak with me today and your excellent guidance provided me with clarity that I made the right choice. Your knowledge and attentive to details and the time to clearly explain my options was on point. After the meeting, I am feeling very confident and well-informed. Highly recommended!

I want to preface this by acknowledging that the proceeding reviewing should have no bearing on the man and professional William Cantrell is. After my negative experience, William did everything possible to rectify and remedy the situation. He called me, emailed me and set up a video meeting with me on Teams, not just an audio only meeting. He looked me in my eyes and took time to hear my plight. For that fact alone, due to William's leadership, you can give this firm a second chance. I had a lawyer here, Ashwin Trehan take up my case, the last we spoke on the phone was 4/24/2025. Not once, did he mention that my case was dismissed on 4/9/2025. He was never going to tell me. I had to have another attorney who successfully got a favorable outcome in a different matter lookup the case and he is who told me the truth. When I questioned Ashwin about this via email, he finally admitted it was dismissed. Here's the unbelievable reason he gave for the dismissal: the court set a hearing and he wasn't notified, thus he couldn't attend and it was dismissed. What court doesn't notify a plaintiff's attorney? Ashwin didn't even have the professional courtesy to speak to me on the phone for a scheduled 3:30 pm call, rather he passed it off to his co-counsel Jemma. Unprofessionally, the scheduled 3:30 pm call was pushed back further and further after I let them know I had family in the courts and the reason Ashwin gave for the dismissal seemed out of place. It's clear Ashwin didn't want to proceed and chose to deliberately not show up to a hearing because it'd give a convenient way out. Now, I have to try to refile my case and take on undue financial burden by paying another attorney potentially $3,500 as a Retainer. For anyone who has an attorney who deliberately fails to inform you of your case and doesn't adequately represent you, file a complaint to the bar.

So far, so good. I have had a wonderful experience with Cantrell Schuette. I was so upset when I got terminated unfairly. I was at my wit's end. Mr. Trehan offered to take my case. He is very professional and the new attorney, Elena, has assisted with my case and has done due diligence and legwork. I'm currently waiting for everything to unfold and I know it will go in my favor. We hold all the aces...
