Scott Gardner/ Excellent Attorney

My husband contacted Scott Gardner after falsely being accused of assault. I found him to be very personable and was immediately at ease. He was prompt in returning telephone calls and emails. He kept us informed throughout the process, answering our many questions and concerns time and time again.... He did an outstanding job of advising and helping us throughout an extremely difficult, and at times emotional, period of our lives. He was always patient and respectful when communicating with us as well as prepared, persistent, skillful and professional in the court room. My husband's case covered a span of many years. It was such a relief to have the right, knowledgable attorney with us. I highly recommend Scott Gardner!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
