We worked with Scott as our lawyer and he made a difficult time in our lives easier to deal with. Scott always kept us informed and returned all phone calls/emails in a very timely manner. The first time we met with Scott, he never rushed us and answered all our questions. We had an exceptionally ...difficult case and we felt he went out of his way to help us through it and spent the extra time with us that we needed. We were very happy to have him as our lawyer

As I was searching for Scott Logan's phone number I stumbled upon these reviews. Normally I stay away from this medium but feel the need to respond. Scott has helped me tremendously with my business and personal financial affairs. He has spent countless hours personally meeting with me and my wife... to ease our fears and come up with a plan for the future. Communication with Scott and his firm have been top notch. I wish I had hired him three years ago instead of the debt consolidation company I used, would have saved thousands. I highly recommend J. Scott Logan.

I first met this attorney on a website after he answered a question. He urged me to come right in as my home was being foreclosed on. I did so and provided the retainer of 1500. which he cashed immediately. He knew I had been served foreclosure papers. He DID NOTHING for six months, knowing that my h...ouse had been served foreclosure papers. This is documented. He filed my Ch 13 six months later, and essentially acted as if I was the one in the wrong. I have preserved phone and email records-he didn't call me once between our initial meeting wherein I gave him the info and signed retainer and six months later when he filed. I had called to ask the status and he never returned the calls. I only met twice with him at his office. Each time I sat down with him, whether to file or fill out paperwork, he explained NOTHING and hurriedly put it in front of me for my signature. He did not give me a copy, said he would, and never did, especially of the fee agreement. He had me fill out generic questions & pleadings he filled out were sloppy with general info on property that was borderline inadequate (my residence was described as being in wrong town, and amount owed was filled in as "more or less" and taken from original mortgage). The part that really bothers me is not only did I lose a house, but he did not explain his billing or present me with his actual first bill for 13 months from our initial meeting. I thought it was flat fee but he quickly changed to hourly billing. All told, I spent about 6,500. Watch out for his billing, or lack thereof, and what he says is included in his retainer, because you will be billed for it. We had a meeting with another attorney. He was condescending in front of her, and he was told to apologize for his behavior. If Mr. Logan would like to contest this with Avvo, I will be happy to give Avvo the name of the attorneys involved. In short, he was woefully slow in acting on my foreclosure (who takes six months after you paid them to do anything when a petition has been filed?), billed me a fortune, and I continually had to call him to ask him to get things done. My case almost got dismissed because he neglected to file required paperwork on time (again court record). He filed unnecessary objections to Trustees Motion, which cost me more in legal fees than the money disputed in Motion. I also received copies of emails wherein he ridiculed me with opposing counsel, joking that I was going to "report him to the bar". I know from the details of this review he will know exactly who I am, and all I can state is the truth should be known by prospective clients and I have everything documented. Promises were made that were not kept, filing was delayed six months, pleadings not filed, my emails forwarded to opposing counsel thereby violating atty client privilege, & his bills were presented in a grossly untimely manner (over a year later?) If you want your hand held, or to have anything explained, don't stop here. In fact, he ended up being my largest creditor in the Ch 13, made me feel humiliated, and his actions were both financially and psychologically traumatic. I regret that I must say this about my own attorney but I truly don't want others to go through the financial or emotional pain and ridicule that I did. As stated, I have more than enough proof to substantiate this.
