I am very pleased with how much Scott has helped me. During the process I felt much at ease and very confident in any and all decisions made. I will definitely recommend him to others. The Paralegal, Lorrie Cohen was a great help also and took time to answer any questions I had.

Very thorough in his follow through when handling the frustrating process with workman's comp. He stood by me and fought hard for my rights in a time in my life I was incipacitated to do so.
