Scott is a magnificent lawyer and I truly appreciate his services. I went to him in a time of turmoil and in desperate need of help for a wrongful death action and not only was he warm and welcoming, but selflessly went out of his way to make sure that my family felt as comfortable and taken care of as possible. He and his paralegal were very efficient, they worked fast and they did everything they said they would do. Even after everything was over, he continued to check in with my family to make sure that we were okay. He is more than just a great and thorough lawyer, he is an extremely kind-hearted person who truly cares about what you are going through. He'll go above and beyond for you to get the job done and make sure you get the closure you need. I will forever be grateful for his services and his support.
