WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
This was my first experience having to hire a Lawyer. Scott was absolutely amazing. From the first moment my wife and I spoke with him, he put us both at ease and continued to do so even when things were looking bleak.
I was hit by a car when riding my bike home from work one night. To make things worse, I had no memory of the incident. The police report was written without my account of the event, and they deemed me to be liable for the accident. With bicycle replacement, medical bills from surgery, and loss of income from being out of work... things were nightmarish for me. But Scott handled my case with genius! He was able to flip the case 180 degrees and show that the initial assessment of liability was incorrect, and get me a settlement I was overjoyed with. I had a good friend go through a similar situation, and his personal injury case was resolved in approx. 8 months start to finish. Scott was able to have my case resolved in 2 months!!! While a resolution that fast may not be ideal for everyone, it was nothing short of a miracle for me in my case, as I wanted a quick resolution. Not only will I always recommend Scott to anyone and everyone, but he will also be my attorney for life. 10/10 I cannot thank him enough, he was phenomenal.
