Scott started Salsbury & Salsbury, LPA after being in private practice for 17 years. Scott previously was a partner at a boutique health care firm located in Pepper Pike, Ohio and, before that, at a large full service law firm based in Akron, Ohio.  In starting the firm, Scott had two basic goals: first, to continue to provide "big firm" service but at a small firm price; second, to consistently provide practical advice achieving effective results.

Scott represents management in labor and employment law, healthcare law, and litigation. His labor practice includes collective bargaining negotiations, the defense of unfair labor practice charges, and grievance arbitration. He defends employers in Unfair Labor Practice hearings and represents clients before the National Labor Relations Board.

Scott's employment practice involves representing employers before the U.S. Equal Employment Commission, the U.S. Department of Labor and the Ohio Civil Rights Commission. He advises clients on a host of  employment issues ranging from Wage and Hour, Pregnancy and Disability Discrimination, Medical Leave to Whistleblower Retaliation.

Scott's professional experience representing healthcare clients has involved a wide range of issues that include medical staff credentialing, peer review, resident discipline and HIPAA privacy regulations.

Scott has litigated in state and federal trial and appellate courts throughout Ohio. He has tried to jury verdict cases involving areas of law ranging from defamation, tortuous interference with business relations, commercial paper, discrimination to retaliation. Scott has also tried bench trials and injunction actions involving issues that have included construction disputes, commercial real estate covenants, workers compensation retaliation, and non-compete agreements.
